this msnbc article points how saving money at the grocery store using coupons means eating less healthy. my strategy is to buy lots of fruits and veggies. (i go through at least two pounds of carrots and a big bunch of bananas every week, along with lots of apples, oranges, celery, cauliflower, and other good stuff. i'd buy more if i could carry it, or stand to go grocery shopping more often.)

this article about the netflix ipo on internetnews.com is such a load—no responsible company wants a huge first-day bounce, since that means they went out too low. only stupid (and able to sell immediately) pre-ipo investors want that bounce.

the best klez.e-generated message subject i've seen to date: “I need butter.” (if you're still using microsoft outlook or outlook express, do the rest of the internet a favor and stop.)
