Justice has been served.
As the above article explains, Scandinavian mega-band Aqua is one step closer to ultimate victory over Mattel. Seems that Mattel objects to the sexual innuendo concomitant with Aqua's 1997 bubblegum-Europop anthem, Barbie Girl. Seems that nobody but Mattel cares. This might leave the Aqua folks free to focus on other things, such as joining forces with me to take over the world.
In celebration, Aqua is currently piping in through my headphones. Come on Barbie. Let's go party.
In other news, expect a redesign of my site shortly. Among my birthday presents (did I mention I recently had a birthday?) were 1) a birthday e-card featuring Steve Jobs in a party hat, which has become my most prized e-possession, and 2) a Gold membership to this ol' tub we like to call Diaryland. I mention these two items together purely by chance -- I do not mean to imply that a certain celebratory CEO will be the centerpiece of my new design. Of course, I am not exactly denying that, either.
