I was just about to post that. My roommate and I are wondering, "It's cool, but what's the point here?"

the fact that you can click on a picture and it gets "BIG" people are really abusing the work interactive. I saw it when I got to work this morning, but closed it after about 5 seconds. Just not that interesting.

Can we get an interactive from the NYT for plumbers or carpenters sometime? They do things that fax machines can't as well.

It kinda makes sense since it is a couple of days before the CMWC. There should be a companion piece article about the upcoming CMWC.

alot can be said about a man willing to overcome an obstacle like this
for that ... i salute him... i'm sure he can ride better with one than i ever could with two
alot can also be said for a man willing to be a man and raise a family
i know that your childhood plays an important role in who you become,,
but from the limited history i just read on this guy, he sounds like an asshat
*sigh*
