Could it be?

Yes it could.

Something special.

Something good.

Gonna be great.

Tomorrow.

Big, big day.

It's the kind of day that makes people feel like they need to hit the "Reply All" button.

:-)

And it has nothing to do with the fact that Sun's Chief Gaming Officer Chris Melissinos



....is going to come over to my house for breakfast.

(seriously)

And then we're going to go visit my old high school to talk to some kids about what life is like for the techno trendy and their faithful sidekicks.

It's just like Paris and Nicole before they stopped being BFF.

Except he's a boy.

And I'm not skinny.

You get the idea.

We've come so far.

We no longer need words.

Kids these days... they can complete an entire sentence and never even utter a word.

It's just a WYSIWYG kind of world.

Not sure I'm so excited about the development.

I'm completely in love with the English language. (I'm even more in love with Greek, but that's another story.)

I delight in the exploits of those who've mastered it.

Ashlee Vance. Hal Stern. Al Riske. They're all writers that can make words feel like melted chocolate in your mouth.

So it makes me a little bit sad when we use this shorthand.

But that's not the point of this little rant.

The point is that I have never -- not in my entire life -- I've never met anyone who used IMHO, who was actually humble.

p.s. pls don't call me on the carpet for having been known to LMAO on more than one occassion. I've seen the error of my ways. :-)
