Now this is my kinda guy! According to this article in the Washington Post, a 59-year-old corporate executive in England was discovered to have three wives when they all showed up to visit them in the hospital after a triple bypass operation (no comment on that part!).

The best part is that the guy pleaded guilty to two counts of bigamy and got a four-month suspended sentence and a fine of $126 (or whatever that is in pounds). That's not even a slap on the wrist in England!

So here's my question of the day for all you lawyers out there: the article concludes by saying that his second and third marriages were never valid legally. If that's the case...how could he be guilty of bigamy?!?!?!  ¶ 01:37 1 comments

  Ten Years of the Net? The headline of this article in the Belfast Telegraph caught my eye while I was surfing at just under light speed.

Ten whole years, huh?

Er, no. Ten years ago I got my first job with the title "Web" in it, but way back in 2003 I celebrated my:

• Ten year anniversary on the web (that's with a web site, not just with a browser).
  
• Twenty year anniversary on the net (that's with my own domain, not with a dialup account).
  
• Twenty-five year anniversary writing about the computer industry.
  

I'm sure there are many other people who can say the same, but I guess the Belfast Telegraph isn't one of them.  ¶ 23:25 0 comments
