My cousin Al's 13-year-old daughter was talking about how much she wanted a Palm Zire 71 and I had to show her the CSK. She was appropriately impressed. I sent her over the top when I e-mailed photos from the dining room table to her while she was sitting at a computer upstairs. Goodbye Palm Zire; hello Danger Hiptop.

P.S. Had a nice cookout today and celebrated four birthdays. Mine, my brother's, and our spouses all fall within a four weeks. The question of the day was where did summer go??
