fun with diane & charlie!
Detonating cellphones!
Not totally sure why, but I delight in the news that Wal-Mart is doing poorly this holiday season. Part of us-versus-them, no doubt. Regardless, Wal-Mart blames gas prices, and suddenly I realized that some Harvard-educated economist now needs to find a way to combine the words "gas" and "stagnation."
We need buzzwords, people. The front page these days is full of phrases like "spent fuel rods" or "autonomy initiative" and then there's the last names -- Yanukovich and Yushchenko and that's not even counting the Arabs! I'm just plain sick of the media elite. They don't think of the illiterate. Or maybe they just don't care.
I guess if Gwyneth can take "Apple," Julia can lay claim to "Phinnaeus." And who really cares about this NBC sports guy? I picked such a rotten day to watch TV news...

I interpret it as a good sign for our economy if people aren't shopping at Wal-Mart and taking their business elsewhere.
