The Daddle.

Really. Why, when I was a lad we rode our dads bareback.

The US is in the slow lane on the Info Superhighway.

Why?
Because there are some things in which the government must take an active role.

I, Cringely . The Pulpit . Inflection Point | PBS: "Ten years ago, the United States had the fastest and cheapest residential Internet service in the world. Today U.S. residential Internet service, especially broadband, is among the slowest and most expensive. Fortunately, this is likely to change as U.S. broadband Internet services become decidedly more competitive, both in terms of cost and available bandwidth. Unfortunately, U.S. broadband adoption rates are slowing at a rate that suggests ultimate market penetration under 90 percent."



Yes, I know the title of this post is hacky.

Fun with motivational posters.

Out of the Yellow Closet?

OK, what do we know about Ted, aka The Man With The Yellow Hat?

- He lives in a huge Park Avenue apartment, alone except for an exotic pet.
- He's thin and fit -- runs marathons.
- He travels.
- He's obsessive about cleanliness, especially his clothes.


On the other hand:
- He seems to have a crush on Professor Wiseman, who is female.
- He always wears the same outfit.

On balance, I think TMWTYH is straight. Close call, though!
