In Tampa Bay, the slumping Sox fall to the streaking Rays, 5-4. Boston actually got the tying run to third base in the top of the 9th, getting two runs off of the truly terrible Troy Percival before finally falling just short.
Today is Bill Gates' supposed last day at Microsoft. I started with Microsoft Windows running on an IBM Aptiva, that being the first computer I bought and used regularly. The first words I wrote, in paragraphs and pages on a word processor on a computer were on a IBM PC running MS DOS 2.0. Whatever credit Gates deserves for all this (there is some debate), I can honestly say my life would not be the same without what he and his company brought. Attention must be paid, as the saying goes.

Further proof that the Bush Administration has ruined absolutely everything- a program that the Justice Department used to attract young lawyers was twisted to partisan purposes. A recent report shows that the Bush Administration discriminated against candidates with so called liberal associations or hobbies. The childishness of these people, with their paranoid fear of exposure to an idea they are unfamiliar, would be funny if it weren't so deeply frightening.
