Monday

This is the last week of news post; the last Monday. The excessive talk about the swine flu had gone down but the infection is spreading across the US. There are almost at least one one person in each state. I am glad they are keeping people posted, and trying to track how it started to spread.
A feature story was interesting about an 8-year-old girl racing cars. She has been competing in North Carolina and going 60 miles per hour. I don't know what parents will let their 8-year-old kids drive at 60 miles per hour or drive at all. Those are some cool parents! The hobby runs in the family and it looks like we will be seeing more of her in the future.
The former chief executive of Seagate says he wants to make ipods thinner. Well, how much thinner can an ipod get without it tearing like a piece of paper? In addition to ipods, people are now using their iphones more for fun than an actual phone. All the different applications out that people can use is taking up most of their time.
