Out of the Blue

Happy Cinco de Mayo, as today commemorates el Día de la Batalla de Puebla, the victory of the Mexicans over the French in the Battle of Puebla. I am also celebrating a victory today as I have vanquished my cold (man I can shoehorn a segue out of anything), and am enjoying my emergence from my antihistamine haze.

Today's common cold link was an interesting read on the topic... I was particularly fascinated by the hypothesis that not getting many colds might actually be a sign of a malfunctioning immune system, rather than the reverse, which would be the obvious assumption.

Links of the Day: Common Cold. Thanks Enahs.
Trading Places Walking Illusions.
Stories of the Day: Rescuers prep for hybrid car accidents. Thanks Cliff Eyler.
Disney Forbidding Distribution of Film That Criticizes Bush (registration required).

Babies Born With a Mission.
States act on animal-car crashes.
Image of the Day: VW Bus Ball. Thanks Dan Leadbetter.
Seen at an AICPA Tech Conference. Thanks Ant.
Media of the Day: Badgerphone.
Auction of the Day: From eBay to batter's box, for only $5,601. Thanks Bill Money.
Billy Joel 1967 Citroen Grill from Slam.
Follow-ups: Anti-Vaccination Fever: The Shot Hurt Around the World.
FCC flooded with Oprah complaints and
SaveRadioNow.org. Thanks A/S/LayerAODsk.
Thanks Mike Martinez

Number of magazines (gaming and otherwise) you subscribe to: got a Pczone subscription but as it goes to my original home my brothers just read it now, get all my opinions from bluesnews!

Number of books you read each year: 20ish

Reading Blue’s News since: around the turn of the century!

Funniest moment on these boards: tricky, most of the OOTB stuff is pretty good, that hitman 2 thing a while ago was amusing, although im currently hooked on that bannana phone song!

Game that you are the most tired hearing about: HL2 - From a marketing point of view i actually thought they had managed to sell the game perfectly unlike the rest of the industry. but they dropped the ball and now i just watch the gaming industry in disbelief as usual.

Most underrated game:Black and White u have to play while someone else is playing through the single player for the full experiance.
