“[! Presley outdid herself again with the meal- conjuring a delicious turkey, all the fixings, and a “couple of pies”:http://flickr.com/photos/nedward/67611894/ for our enjoyment. “[!
“[!< http://static.flickr.com/28/65568796_4efc30a98a_o.gif (new AT&T logo)!]“:http://cellphones.engadget.com/entry/1234000650069010/ So, having been forcibly converted from _AT&T Wireless_ to “Cingular”:http://cingular.com, I read “this”:http://cellphones.engadget.com/entry/1234000650069010/ today:
bq. Well, you can say goodbye to Cingular. SBC, which closed its merger with AT&T last week, decided that after spending untold millions promoting the Cingular brand for its joint venture with BellSouth, that theyre going to drop the name and start selling wireless service under the AT&T brand name.
Why? On the day we read about “GM shedding 30,000 American jobs”:http://www.nytimes.com/2005/11/21/business/21cnd-gm.html?hp, I’m having a hard time understanding just what the hell U.S. Big-Business is up to. Somebody is making money on all these shenanigans, but I’m not convinced that workers and consumers share in the party.
UPDATE: Wondering about that new AT&T logo? It’s weak, right? Well, Russell Beattie has a nice “put-down review”:http://www.russellbeattie.com/notebook/1008697.html.
UPDATE 2: “Designweenie”:http://www.designweenie.com/blog/index.php/1333 also feels uncomfortable with the new AT&T mark.

And, no, we’re not talking about the Nixon White House… “The ‘enemies list’ dates back to Bush�s days as governor of Texas and can be accessed by senior administration officials in an instant for use in campaigns to discredit those who speak out against administration policies or acts of the President.”
“[! One of the more architecturally interesting buildings to go up in recent years, is the luxury condos at “23 Sydney”:http://maps.google.com/maps?q=23+Sidney+St,+Cambridge,+MA+02139&spn=0.005264,0.011089&t=h&iwloc=A&hl=en. They’re really lovely, but likely inhabited by wealthy _Aholes_. More photos “here”:http://flickr.com/photos/nedward/tags/23sydney/. “[! “[! “[!
