	 Kindle in the Wild 
      
    
    
 
    
I was originally upset to have missed the 8:22 train this morning, but I got to see an  Amazon Kindle for the first time on the 8:38. Its smaller than I thought, and it seems like the white body would discolor after awhile? He seems to be enjoying it, though.

Harper didn't win (much less get nominated for - really?) Best Picture, but we did take home Best Dance Scene, Best Use of Faculty and tied for 3rd in the AmEx commercial contest...

I saw my first regression less than two months ago, and I swear this is the first time I've come across one while casually browsing the interwebs.  Coincidence?   This shows how sensitive ad spending is to GDP growth: I'm a huge nerd for being excited about being able to understand the equation... (via )
