Not Your Sweetie

NO BOOKS< PLEASE!

Computer columnist John Dvorak is guestblogging the sidebar on boingboing this week. He has an interesting story about Bushies and gifts:


This ABC News story floating around outlines the odd meeting between Dean Kamen and GW bush and how he ended up with a Segway Some years ago when George Sr. was in office and was making noise about computers I had my book publisher send copies of a couple Dvorak Books on the topic to the President, figuring they would be good for him. The books came back from the Secret Service with a long condemnation about how the President can't accept "gifts" and this was improper and blah-blah-blah. So I was a little surprised by this Segway situation. These things are worth $8000, my book was $24 or so.
