Dont5 have time to diary this fully, or even jto run speclgcheck, but guess what!!! Something is being kreported as a lead storry on all the major news websites, and I READ ABOUT IT!@@@!!!

Obviously there's not ktime to search the diary lists to see if, say, the lastt four diaries posted are about the samme topic, becauser I want to post this while it's STILL BREAKINGjkl!!!!!!

Sure, you jjjust wrote a diary that had been in your mind for months, that you'd researgvched painstakingly, html'ed 117 links so that readers can find out more, and it's a topic that no one else has covered. A topic dear to your heart maybe, owne that doesn't get covvered much aruound here but happense to be your field of expertise.

Sure, you just had an interseting jpersonal experience that gave you fresh insults, i mean insights, into Ststuff you never thought jabout before. Sure! But this is BREAKING!

And so far it's only been reported on CNN, nytimes.com, and wapo! None of which ever covers a story until two weeks after the blogosphere breaks it, but now it's BREAKIING!

BRAKING! BRAKING! BREEKING! BREKING! BREEKING!  i tells ya.

And i'm the one that broke it.

Lord, it feels good to break something.
