such style - 100% Pure TheDirector™
 
 given the smackie + director combo, no bonus points for guessing what kind of a club it was.

Venerable and I have a friend who works for Lucas Arts and told us about this a while ago.  Looks like it's finally coming to fruition.

Smackie has missed you Thomas Friedman.  It's good to have you back...
 
 Dumb as we Wanna Be
 By THOMAS L. FRIEDMAN

 It is great to see that we finally have some national unity on energy policy. Unfortunately, the unifying idea is so ridiculous, so unworthy of the people aspiring to lead our nation, it takes your breath away. Hillary Clinton has decided to line up with John McCain in pushing to suspend the federal excise tax on gasoline, 18.4 cents a gallon, for this summerâ??s travel season. This is not an energy policy. This is money laundering: we borrow money from China and ship it to Saudi Arabia and take a little cut for ourselves as it goes through our gas tanks. What a way to build our country.
 
 When the summer is over, we will have increased our debt to China, increased our transfer of wealth to Saudi Arabia and increased our contribution to global warming for our kids to inherit.
 
 As always, there's more...

Brilliant as usual.

Shocker.

Sometimes, people from the OC write articles like that to pretend that they're just like everybody else in this country.
 
 We all know the truth though.  It's right there on the screen.

Sprint Nextel to spin off WiMax network
 
 I think this is good as both a Sprint Customer and some one who wants WiMax.  Even better if the Cable Co.'s invest to pick up the loss of some Sprint funding.

hmmm, i wonder what are the odds that pepco will consider wimax for any upgrades in their utility meters/distribution system (california utilities considered wimax too expensive for their meter communication platform).  i think bags may be the only person who knows what that sentence means.
