CNN News, 2006.02.02

Some news articles from CNN:
Women sue Wal-Mart over contraception - I'm no fan of Wal-Mart, but these feminist bitches need to get smacked down. Who the hell are they to tell a company they must stock a certain product? That's not capitalism, that's socialism! On the other hand, I'd be happy if morons like this didn't produce offspring, so maybe Wal-Mart should stock the morning-after meds. Incidentally, it's inaccurate to call it "contraception" if the medication is utilized post-fertilization.
How Pepsi outgunned Coke - An excellent article on why the cola wars wasn't everything. Also an eye-opener: if you buy stock in companies you like, sometimes it's not as profitable as buying companies you don't like. (I vastly prefer Coke to Pepsi, but made less than 10% on Coke stock.)
The "Oh, s#&%!" moment - A few good tips for handling the low points of office work. Check out "Managing the boss" and "Adventures in e-mail".
Young and in love with saving - Think about the future. Active investment is becoming a must in Corporate America. Don't trust your future to your employers: when it's time for you to "retire", they won't care about you anymore.
