You know that there must be a lot of desperate moms out there that are willing to pay that kind of money to get their hands on an Xbox360 for Christmas.

However, much to my 13-year old son's dismay, I am not one of them.

Looking at that link, this looks like one of those shared catalog quirks, like the one going around a while ago with Target's site, which was linked into Amazon's database, so that it appeared that target was "selling" marijuana, sex, etc. I wonder if this is the same kind of thing. Doesn't explain the high price, but I didn't think JC Penney was in the business of selling video game consoles.

Sounds like he's scared of the debate, probably because he's not prepared for the questions on the economy - even though it's a national security theme. Pussy!(via McCain suspends campaign for 'historic' crisis - CNN.com) Republican presidential candidate John McCain announced Wednesday that he is suspending his campaign to return to Washington and focus on the "historic" crisis facing the U.S. economy.
Macs Used To Help Make New Microsoft Ad
this is so funny.(via Macs Used To Help Make New Microsoft Ad) Uh-oh. It's been discovered that some of the images used in Microsoft's new 'I'm a PC' commercial were created with Macs. Four of the images that Microsoft made available on its PressPass site today display the designation "Adobe Photoshop C3 Macintosh" when their file properties are examined. The images appear to be frames from the television ads that Microsoft will launch later today.
