“Show Day! It’s Show Day!”
As long as Irwin’s going down Postmortem Memory Lane, I thought I’d pull up this one of him on set.

name dropping at cingular…
I was on hour “Forget It” with my Cingular phone, and gave one last call to try and figure out if there was anything I could to to resolve the fact that my Treo doesn’t send or receive email. The support rep on the phone couldn’t hear me, and asked if he could call me…
