You can now order (real) pizza from within your on-line pretend world.
Fark's actual name for the Fleet Center? Boston Garden.
Why the Bushism feature is bogus. (People who do pay good money for those calendars - which really do sell astonishingly well - are the biggest idiots I know.)
The smell of citrus makes you want to buy things; some other smell makes you want to gamble. (I'll guess it's either New Car Smell or something anatomically intimate.)

Fraught incentives for Slavic weathermen. Hint: Don't become a Slavic weatherman.
The New Yorker waxes eloquent on the history of ringtones. Five years ago I worked for a company that had a business deal with an Internet incubator. Among other terms, they gave us office space and we consulted their incubatees. We also wound up on the incubator's internal e-mail lists, including the marketing people who offered a periodic prize for "best new idea."
My idea was always do to something more with ringtones. Ringtones were about to make it big, I said. I was right, of course, but did I do anything clever about my intuition, like maybe investing my money appropriately? Nah.
