Notes from Howard's Sabbatical from Working. The name comes from a 1998 lunch conversation. Someone asked if everything man knew was on the web. I answered "no" and off the top of my head said "Fidel Castro's favorite color". About every 6-12 months I've searched for this. It doesn't show up in the first 50 Google results (this blog is finally first for that search), AskJeeves says it's: red.

But Mom...
This is a crazy story, Mother’s sting catches son, Cory Ryder, ‘hiring hitman to kill her’. 16 year-old boy has Playstation, then has bad grades. Parents take away Playstation. Boy is upset, makes scary comments. Mother has undercover cop pose as hitman. Boy tries to hire (fake) hitman to kill parents in exchange for dad's truck. Boy charged with attempted murder, mother testifies against son.

Just like Ray Bradbury's story The Veldt.
Hadn't heard of it, but thanks to the internet now I can ask, is this the first holodeck?
