I believe the humor underlying the phrase "deranged as an actuary"
automatically assumes "deranged actuary" to be redundant.....
....on so many levels...

Subject: RE: deranged actuary
Actually, the reference is not to a deranged actuary (by the way, how could
one tell an when an actuary is deranged - does he act "normal"?), but it
was
referring to Jeff Johnson (whoever he is) as making Gary Larson (The Far
Side) "seem as deranged as an actuary." I still cannot figure out if that
is a "slam" or a compliment.

taking
the exams all over again for the fun of it.
