Kind words from Katie Couric regarding my efforts

Okay, sure, Ms Couric is way too kind regarding big influencers in media . However, I feel that this has nothing to do with reality, but more to do with my naming in 2000 as one of the "top ten bachelors of Silicon Valley", and my appearance with her on the Today Show.

It's probably not American wine drinkers' fondness for lots of alcohol and oak that most thoroughly confounds Old World wine lovers: It's their tendency to let fictional characters tell them what to drink.

The Obamas? Oh, they're just the first family next door

The pundits say the president took a beating at the polls, but Barack Obama won a very different kind of contest last week.

With his BlackBerry, his burger runs and his pickup basketball, 'he and his family have brought dramatic social change to the nation's capital and to the country's collective image of its first family,' USA Today declared.

Barack and Michelle 'have spoken more frankly about marriage than most intact couples, especially those running for office, usually do,' the New York Times Magazine reported, explaining how she was 'seduced by his mind, his charm, his promise of social transformation.' The first lady also dispensed dating advice in a Katie Couric sit-down for Glamour magazine, saying, 'Cute's good, but cute only lasts for so long.'
