Apparently, Microsoft has wrought a "new version of The Iliad produced to appeal to the text message generation":

Wot hapnd when Agamemnon & Achilles had a barny in Troy?

You read the Torygraph?

In a choice between Neil Kinnock and Margaret Thatcher, I choose Maggie. However, I don't read the Telegraph regularly. Were I actually in the UK, I'd stick with newspapers that have topless women on Page 3. :-)

As it happens, my favorite source of international news is the Economist. I found that Telegraph link on another web page which found the story amusing. If you're curious about my politics, on a particular issue or in general, feel free to ask. I promise I won't be offended by any particular question, and promise I won't intend offense by any particular answer. :-)

Arghhhhhh! I searched for MS's stupified version of The Iliad and found nary a link. That would've been something. Yet another reason to keep the hatin' goin' with MS. :>
