As I was sorting through today's magazines I spied a copy of the latest Fortune. A cover article on "Cyberscams".... It mentions Silicon Investor! And what's this!?! A photo of Janice Shell, the Queen of the Cybervigilantes. Janice is looking very sophisticated, a regular star, her serious expression hiding the clown we know her to be. No sign of Bilbo or her ever present glass of red wine, but her world famous laptop is in the photo. Don't miss it.

Haven't seen it yet, nope. (Sorry for the late response - oopsie) Is it out on tape yet? I also need to see Wag the Dog. I feel so illiterate when they mention it on NPR every ten minutes.

A dear friend called me at work yesterday and an hour went by just like that. What made me LOL was that we got onto the subject of kids&setting limits. I confessed that there were some things I'd outright forbid. "Like what, Alex?" "Body adornment. Outright." "You mean like piercing?" "Yeah. Piercing, tattooing - until she's eighteen and/or independent. (Ed. Do you know how hard it is to make that slash sound right over the phone?) Whichever comes last." "You won't have to worry, Alex." "How do you figure, Kate?" By the time Helen is a teenager, all that stuff will be passe. Kids will say - 'taht is like sooo-oo Nineties, you know?' " I never thought of it that way. I wonder what teenage collective penchant for self-destruction I will be battling.
