...only one jealous of those Internet billionaires. High-paid, lavishly pampered executives are watching small start-ups cash in -- and deciding themselves to bail out. The latest defectors to the Net side include Jake Winebaum, architect of Disney's Internet plans, and Lou Dobbs, money anchor for this site's corporate sibling, CNN.

...readily acknowledge that we have a handicap for dancing, and those of us who don't admit it are usually the ones most guilty of starting just one more round of the Electric Slide. "Close Quarters" made all of us rhythmless people grateful (and perhaps a wee bit jealous?) that dancing can look so much like, well, dancing...
