May 31

• The last day of May has come. Today's WSJ has already started the hurricane season hype (along with everyone else) and are predicting this year to be equally high risk and the northeast US should brace itself. Call me crazy, but I don't remember really having to deal with hurricane reporting until at least late summer. Is all this hype really necessary to rile up everyone again? Maybe it is a wake up call. Speaking of which, I suppose Al Gore's movie An Inconvenient Truth, which opens on Friday June 2nd at the Embaracdero Theatre in San Francisco, is good timing.
• It's no page 6, but the NY Post (and many other sources) are rumoring MSN to buy ebay? Hmm, that would be a big ripple.
