Well, it looks like WorldCom has been cooking the books. Big suprise here, eh?Markets are tumbling on the news. Piggies found guilty of this type of deception should be gutted. Fair, independent audits and legitimate books are the cornerstones of a free market economy in which public ownership is involved. When [...]

The Economist asks the question: Mister McNealy,is your company toast?Being heavily involved with Sun products, I must say that the quality control is lacking these days, and the muddled middleware inititative is a bit taxing. In fact, I have all sorts of gripes about Sun, not least of which is I had to dump their [...]

I saw an article in some magazine in which some guy from the band Everclear and some guy from Matchbox 20 were lamenting the current state of pop radio. Now, these guys were both darlings of the “commercial alternative” craze a few years back, and now they are bemoaning corporate ownership and lack of diversity [...]

I woke up the other morning at 4. No reason. Just got out of bed and flipped on the t.v. so I could ride my exercise bike. The only programming I could find was the freaky French instructional video that public television stations play. You know the one: the hottie [...]

Fashion Forward for Militants

I was struck by just what a fashionable fellow this Palestinian militant is. His rifle is out of date, but his clothes, complete with plain front chinos, could be worn in Midtown Atlanta, complete with black belt, and he’d get into all the clubs.
