...iPod semi-connectivity is a ray of light in a generally partisan and overly protected musical landscape. What's depressing is that much of Microsoft's own protected content doesn't play on the system, either. For nearly a year, Microsoft's Windows Media division has promoted subscription content that you can play on your PC or on a portable player, after paying a fairly low monthly or yearly fee to Napster, RealNetworks or Yahoo! Typically, you can play songs on a PC and even move them to participating non-iPods, such as Dell's Ditty. What's messed...

...references abound on “The Simpsons,” television’s definitive animated comedy. And it’s all because of the members of a mysterious “Castle” located on the corner of Bow, Plympton, and Mount Auburn Streets. A semi-secret Sorrento Square social organization that used to occasionally publish a so-called humor magazine, the Harvard Lampoon churns out comedy writers as efficiently as it prints copies...
