The Bunny & the Snake
Once upon a time, in a nice little forest, there lived an orphaned bunny and an orphaned snake. By a surprising coincidence, both were blind from birth. One day, the bunny was hopping through the forest, and the snake was slithering through the forest, when the bunny tripped over the snake and fell down. This, of course, knocked the snake about quite a bit. "Oh, my," said the bunny, "I'm terribly sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you. I've been blind since ...

“I find it hard to breathe”
Irish gent Damien Rice is a talented individual. Due to artistic differences with their record label, Damien left his "next-big-thing" band, Juniper, in the late nineties. He fled to Tuscanny and busked the streets of Europe for a year. Finally - with his mind settled once more - it was back to Dublin where he began penning the songs that would become "O".

Sony’s “iPod Killer”
Sony's version of the iPod, its NW-HD5 was recently launched. It'll set you back about $340. For that you'll get a surprisingly light .mp3 player with a 20GB storage capacity and 40hours of battery life. Is that so? In their quest to out-do, out-design and out-last the iPod's popularity, Sony seems to have cut some major corner and might we suggest, maybe a corner too many? It is light. We'll give it that. Perhaps too light ...
