Am I going crazy or are there quarter tones in the Budweiser Select ad
running in the US? Does anyone know what I'm talking about?

I don't. But surely I'll be happy to know. I have absolutely no idea.

Is the ad on budweiser.com or youtube.com?

Yeah, sounds they mashed in some Arabic pop, much of which sounds like techno or hip-hop these days . . .

(Does this Blackberry thing actually work?)

Wow, this is my first post on a real computer since Friday. Typing on a
Blackberry is an order of magnitude slower, and didn't allow me to
catch up on this list, let alone all the others, despite overly
frequent checking. Doesn't look good.

Wow ... i've seen more posts from you here in the last
few days than in the past several months -- you did all
that with a blackberry, and you're not impressed? i am!

Yeah, for serious e-mail like this, it's not so good.
But for the shlock most people call e-mail, it earns the
moniker "crackberry".

I haven't been in the office much, that's why.

I've been much more efficient in the past, but that required sitting
in the office for far longer than I can now.

Actually, I was surprised to see that my posts looked exactly as they
do normally. I just need 10 years to develop typing facility on
the 'berry! :)

You've certainly already gone there with regular e-mail.
We all have.
