Time Magazine just announced the Person of the Year for 2006. It's you and me and a million others. ;)

TIME.com: Person of the Year: You (http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,1569514,00.html)
Who are these people? Seriously, who actually sits down after a long day at work and says, I'm not going to watch Lost tonight. I'm going to turn on my computer and make a movie starring my pet iguana? I'm going to mash up 50 Cent's vocals with Queen's instrumentals? I'm going to blog about my state of mind or the state of the nation or the steak-frites at the new bistro down the street? Who has that time and that energy and that passion?

The answer is, you do. And for seizing the reins of the global media, for founding and framing the new digital democracy, for working for nothing and beating the pros at their own game, TIME's Person of the Year for 2006 is you.

More news. (http://news.google.com/news?q=Time+Magazine+Person+of+the+Year+2006&hl=en&lr=&safe=off&sa=X&oi=news&ct=title)

What if you don't own a computer?
Is it still you?

Makes sense now, all those bloggers stealing my ideas and posting them on a news/entertainment blog sites to get a good reputation. Now, I'm cutting them off!

Well that just shows you what procrastinating in front of a computer will get ya.
Imagine the recognition you could get if you actually did something.:rotflmao:
