Andy Ihnatko's YELLOWTEXTThe weblog of Andy Ihnatko, Chicago Sun-Times and Macworld tech columnist.From The Company That Brought You Advantix- December 31, 2006 This video from Kodak is pure, stress-laminated genius. I've said this before: I don't know who the company either hired or fired at the turn of the century, but they transformed themselves from the company that couldn't shoot straight to the Anti-Polaroid, able to reinvent and adapt and excel when the world pulls your market out from under you. 152 words in article.http://www.cwob.com/yellowtext/yellowtext1206.html#15481 Idle Thought- December 29, 2006 Two caskets, crossing the country at about the same time. 121 words in article.http://www.cwob.com/yellowtext/yellowtext1206.html#37771 iTunes Advent Calendar: Day 18- December 23, 2006 Better ThingsThe KinksGive the People What They Want (Remastered)Genre: Rock 731 words in article.http://www.cwob.com/yellowtext/yellowtext1206.html#25194 iTunes Avent Calendar - Day 17- December 22, 2006 Santa Claus Is Coming to TownCyndi Lauper & Frank SinatraA Very Special Christmas, Vol. 2Genre: Holiday 756 words in article.http://www.cwob.com/yellowtext/yellowtext1206.html#52878 Immortal Beloved- December 21, 2006 Longtime readers of this blog are aware that I tend to track my personal "One Of God's BelovedNOT One Of God's Beloved" stats rather carefully. If you had a lick of common sense, you would, too. Maybe God exists, maybe not...but when you carry those numbers on a laminated card in your wallet, you walk into the job interview armed with exactly the kind of hard data that'll land you the Taco Bell assistant-managership. 571 words in article.http://www.cwob.com/yellowtext/yellowtext1206.html#44299 iTunes Advent Calendar: Day 16- December 20, 2006 Difficult to Cure (Beethoven's Ninth)RainbowDifficult to CureGenre: Rock 1108 words in article.http://www.cwob.com/yellowtext/yellowtext1206.html#61702 iTunes Advent Calendar: Day 15- December 16, 2006 Help MeJohnny CashAmerican V: A Hundred HighwaysGenre: Country 683 words in article.http://www.cwob.com/yellowtext/yellowtext1206.html#46894 Like The Biblical Job, only With A Kick-Ass SLR- December 15, 2006 You have shown pity for me in the past. This was a shrewd instinct and I applaud you for it.
