Does anyone else see the irony in the fact that the same company that owns MySpace, a website that started in the San Francisco indy music scene (very liberal) is owned by the same company that owns and runs Fox News?

Talk about diversification!

also of note today this thread became the longest on CP. The computer help thread is second followed by the Fan 960 Fan Club thread, then the Oilers signing Vanek and 2007 Draft Round 1 - Who Picked Who.

Congrats 1 Million Posts thread

It's 403 - yes, altho I think it might be spread across provinces as a friend in Ontario called the number when she got the email and it worked.

A linguistics professor was lecturing to his class one day.
"In English," he said, "A double negative forms a positive. In some languages, though, such as Russian, a double negative is still a negative. However, there is no language wherein a double positive can form a negative."
A voice from the back of the room piped up, "Yeah, right."
