...Tina Fey react when you called her a bitch on national television? -Dean Head, Saskatchewan It made for great television, and everybody knows unless you live on Mars that Tina Fey, she's my sister from another mother with a different color. It was just like when I told Lorne Michaels, Get me a soda, bitch...
This was going to be an issue. Long articles need color. Color is easy to find at large events, easy to pick out in snatches of conversation (did you hear that PJ won again?), to distill from the clothes that people wear (did you see their matching shirts?).

...Pozas (the Pools) are an excellent first stop and typify the region's color and extravagance.

U.K.-based Plastic Logic hopes to introduce next year the first e-reader with a plastic screen that will reduce glare and be less prone to cracking when dropped by ham-fisted owners. Electronic-ink technology is set to move from black and white to color by the end of 2010. Even video is on the horizon. "We'll see a range of models start to appear over the first half of 2010" offering "a range of different reading and productivity experiences," says Neil Jones, CEO of U.K.-based Interead, which in May launched...
