Insert the Theme from Close Encounters Here:

The new computer has arrived! I am blurry eyed from trying to familiarize myself with it... but it's great to be back online when I GOD DAMN WANT and without imposing on others. I think this is the beginning of a beautiful relationship.

Becks Has Arrived

Yes - he is one of the most charismatic athletes of the century. Yes - he def. has a look and sense of style that only elevates his popularity (he refrains from wearing over-sized pinstripe anything, diamond studs that are too big for his ear lobes or sneakers as a fashion statement). AND he can play soccer/football really, really, well BUT does the arrival of him and Posh qualify for evening news coverage? Does it?
