"Can a..." seems to be a popular search parameter for lots people having unprotected sex, Mac noobs, and Chris Rock fans.

Michael Jackson is dead.

He was rushed to the hospital in cardiac arrest earlier today, and now he's dead. Everything else on the stupid news networks is nonsense for the next few days or weeks. My speculation on his cause of death? Drug overdose. Pain medication, for his chronic back pain.

Everyone in the world will know about this within hours. This will become a case study in social media, a case study of the rapid transmission of information. This will be plastered on the front of every news source everywhere.

Farah Fawcett and Michael Jackson dead on the same day. If I were 10-15 years older, I'd be 10-15 times more emotional. What a weird day.

May he rest in peace. God knows he had a tumultuous life.

New York Times Typo

Obvious typo on the front page of nytimes.com. It's front and center. I saw this immediately; is there no editor checking stuff this time of night, or what?

Screen grab taken just a a few minutes ago (12:40AM EDT), click to enlarge:

Blogger Elliott Back spotted another NYT typo. I posted a link to this page in his comments section, it's only fair that I link back.
