I wonder how long it will take to see the effects of this? We just might have a few more episodes of our favorite shows hit the air waves some time this year?

Hmm, now CNN is saying the deal is tenative! Yesterday MSNBC said it was a done deal, so really, who knows !

A 16 year-old Australian dude throws a party and now faces a $20k fine for damages.

You have to see the end of the interview. It’s not very long. I couldn’t help but laugh out loud. Of course he’s not my son or my neighbor.

(this video is safe for viewing at work)

So is he just a punk or a modern day Ferris Bueller?

What a great idea !
Now I wont have to go in and try to find some one who speaks English to help with directions when I am lost any more.

Gasoline pump maker Gilbarco Veeder-Root on Wednesday unveiled a new service that lets drivers use Google (NSDQ: GOOG) Maps at the pump to get directions to destinations chosen by gas station owners.
The service, unveiled at the National Association of Convenience Stores conference in Atlanta, is part of Gilbarco’s Applause media system, which has been incorporated in its Encore pumps with color screens and Internet connections. Applause is an extension of Gilbarco’s SMART Merchandising system that retailers can use to display promotions and advertisements, and offer coupons through the pump’s receipt printer.

Gilbarco plans to begin testing of the Google service early next month, company spokeswoman Lucy Sackett told InformationWeek. The company hopes to roll out the service later in the month to about 3,500 pumps across the United States.

Check this out.....you can find anyone by their cell phone number (as long as it’s turned on) via GPS satellites!

Try it yourself. Plug in your friend’s or partner’s number, if their phone is on it zeroes right in on their location.

Good way to keep tabs on somebody, I’d think......hmm......

Does anyone else think this is just a clever ad for paperless-billing?
Her blog only goes back to January, and has a very pretty company paid for kind of feel to me. I am thinking all this hype was a plan from the start.

Of course I could be wrong? Great URL for a blog.

Something tells me that this phone call is going to not only hurt Mr. Baldwin’s court case, but also his book sales.

Myself, I am not sure what is worse, losing your temper with your 11 year old daughter while leaving a voice mail or being the mother that leaked it to the press out of spite.
What I do feel sure about it, is that most of the time divorce is pretty ugly and it truly is the kids that end up suffering the most.
