You all know how I love my
YME. I'm reading along today and I see a story that looks interesting, which was the #3 on the Yahoo's Most Viewed list at 4:30 PM Pacific time:
Internet phones must pay into subsidy fund. Anyway, I get half way through the story and realize it's an FCC story, so I scroll to the top and who wrote it? That's right, my friend Jeremy. I find this very cool because it's the first time I've seen one his stories on YME. See, there it is:
I think we're going to go see
Wordplay tonight, a documentary about crossword puzzles. I looooove a good documentary.
Tomorrow, I'm going to try to talk D into going to the Rose Garden (the plants, not the arena) and maybe also the Chinese Garden. The goal being to get out of the house and enjoy the sun.

Ok, funny story about YME, or equivalent - on the day the US military had cornered and killed Saddam Hussein's two sons (mid-2003), I had a feature story out on how it seemed like everyone was now wearing flip-flops to work and not just the beach anymore. It was the first story on the trend (including how ridiculous the prices of some flip-flops had gotten). Believe it or not, but my story beat out Uday and Qusay as CNN's most emailed story of the day - #1 with the sons as #2. My story stayed atop the list for a couple days. True story. Go figure. Jeremy.
