Cable Sasser has released his 2007 Cable Yah! Awards. In his usual comical demeanor Cabel provides us his “best of” and “worst of” 2007. Topics that made his list: Best Movie, Best Packaging Redesign and Best Thing Ever Of All Times, Ever. A very diverse list of everything important to Saser and classic Sasser at its best.
A fun read. Enjoy.
The :-) smiley emoticon celebrated its silver anniversary on Sept. 19th. Twenty five years ago Carnegie Mellon University Computer Science Research Professor Scott E.
