Several dozen people sent linkage to this story over at Ted's Hardware. You've got to be kidding. Update by CT: Yes, we do have journalistic standards here at Slashdot. It's just that we sometimes forget about them. We apologize... this article is a hoax. Now will you all shut up about it?

Slashback: Royalty, Royalty, Cinema

Full Quickie Disclosure
QuickiesPosted by CmdrTaco on Monday February 06, @09:55AM
from the another-waste-of-time dept.
I've been so busy lately that I've fallen behind on the quickies! Tragic! Quite a few people sent us a link to an article in MSNBC about a new beverage called Clawill. This is exactly what the world needs. Opal Davidson forwarded us a link to a new site called geekone.com to help neophytes. For something truly bizarre, aboshes pointed out an article in MSNBC about the Pokey the Penguin comic strip. This can't be good. Ro'brien forwarded us a link to this disturbing patent. Norman Stanley forwarded us a link to the Divo.Com gravesite. iwilyan669 sent us a nice photo of Venus that officially meets Rob's First Law Of Art. Quite a few people sent us a link to an article in CNN about Bill Gates' computer teacher. When will the insanity end? Several people sent linkage to this disturbing patent.
