    SBR has taken out a life insurance policy on me
    They called me up last night and want me to find a protege, someone to take over in the event of sudden and unexpected death, what with all my travels. Very important to keep the cutting edge topics flowing so posters keep visiting and posting. This equals ad revenue. The days in which vanilla and predictable threads could sustain a site are long gone. Look at Major Wager and EOG.

    I will be closely monitoring certain posters that I believe have potential. If I PM you for your number, act quickly. If you are brutally honest, fearless and full of life maybe you will be relocating to Hamilton in the new year as we prep you for a 6-figure career in power posting. Should I find noone and cease posting due to untimely death, the policy will pay handsomely to offset lost ad revs but such will only sustain SBR temporarily. Ideally we must find a protege.

        LOS ANGELES (Aug. 25) -- Software giant Microsoft Corp. is apologizing for altering a photo on its Web site to change the race of one of the people shown in the picture.
        A photo on the Seattle-based company's U.S. Web site shows two men, one Asian and one black, and a white woman seated at a conference room table. But on the Web site of Microsoft's Polish business unit, the black man's head has been replaced with that of a white man. The color of his hand remains unchanged.

        Microsoft has apologized for editing a black man out of a photo for its Polish business unit. The unedited photo is at top; the edited version is on the bottom.



        The photo editing sparked criticism online. Some bloggers said Poland's ethnic homogeneity may have played a role in changing the photo.
        "We are looking into the details of this situation," Microsoft spokesperson Lou Gellos said in a statement Tuesday. "We apologize and are in the process of pulling down the image."

          When they brought the lawsuit to us... we stated that the man was half Polish and half black.

          We thought we had easily proved this by pointing to the foto (see face and hand)... but there was still an uproar.

              Dubya, I am flattered but I am merely mortal and we must prepare for the inevitable.

              MILFY, will Al Sharpton burn down Microsoft HQ now?
