No more gadgets for Kim Jong-Il. Too bad, so sad.
Random thought: What ever happened to Jake Ryan from "Sixteen Candles"? Now he was 'all that and a bag of chips'.
Sorry for the delay in posts. Marc and I took a few days off and headed down to the place where he popped the question - Bandon Dunes. We golfed, drank some awesome wine and had some excellent food. On one of the nights we were there, Marc and I unexpectedly ran into some people we used to sit near during Mariners' game when we had a package - JoAnna and Mary. What a fun surprise - had a lot of laughs with those two down in Bandon.
So if you are fortunate enough to be traveling by air during the 2007 holiday season, you can do a public service for you and your fellow travelers. Sounds like fun so I'll just get right on that one. That is almost as good as the U.S. government thinking that they can prevent Kim Jong-Il, North Korea's esteemed leader, from obtaining his favorite gadgets like iPods and Segways. We hear that Kim also likes fine wine. Unfortunately whenever I hear about him, I think back to that awful movie "Team America: World Police" made a couple of years ago.
So someone will have to explain to me how Michael Irvin still continues to have a job at ESPN with all of his transgressions (recent and not-so-recent). Anyone?
I have friends who do this, which is probably illegal. The moral of the story is - don't move to Singapore.
Continuing the legal angle, McDonald's wants to patent how to make a sandwich. No folks, I am not making this up. There is some serious intellectual property here. More from the WSJ.com Law Blog, Slate is suggesting some new rules for your company's holiday party. Worth checking out. And my final WSJ.com Law Blog reference of the day, apparently there is enough content to have a symposium called "The Law of Beer". Appropriately enough, it took place in Oregon, which is home of some of the world's best microbreweries.
Someone want to tell me if this is a good thing or not? Kind of freaks me out.
Just so we have a little bit of everything in today's post, let's shift gears towards the entertainment world. And it looks like Jessica Simpson had a bad day at the office on Sunday evening. Was it as bad as her sister's when she got busted for lip sync'ing on SNL a year or two ago?
An ice cream pioneer died a few days ago. For anyone who knows me and the rest of the Consor Clan, you know that ice cream is a big deal in our family.
And finally, here is a great article on how NOT to see New York as a tourist. More soon.
