"peter graves" - Peter Graves, the rugged actor who starred in "Mission Impossible," died yesterday in Los Angeles, he was 83.
Graves was just returning from brunch when he collapsed in front of his home. His daughter tried to administer CPR, but no luck. Graves played agent James Phelps in the hit "Mission Impossible" from 1967-1973, and then again from 1988 to 1990. Of course, some will remember him for his hilarious role in "Airplane!" where he played a bumbling pilot with one-liners people are still repeating today.
"amazon.com" - Should Amazon.com collect taxes when you make a purchase from their site? The state of Colorado think so, and it passed a law requiring Amazon to collect the state tax, up to 4.6 million dollars. Right now, Amazon just informs residents to pay the tax. Amazon, not too happy with this idea, decided to drop their affiliates program in Colorado. This is a program that allowed bloggers and website owners to advertise products sold on Amazon, and if a purchase was made by clicking the ad, they would get a cut of the action. The cut can be from a few dollars to several hundred a month. Amazon just said goodbye, and folks are ticked. The point is to prevent other states from adopting Colorado's approach.

Light 'em up!What was the worst thing to happen just before your wedding?
Friday afternoon in Pike Creek, Delaware - a nervous bride and her bridesmaid were getting prepared for the big ceremony in a salon. Meanwhile, just outside of the salon, someone with an obvious appreciation for cheesy dresses broke into their vehicle and swiped the bridesmaids' dress. And yes, the accessories were also taken. No word on if they got everything back in time for the wedding. (My first suspect is the bridesmaid herself!)
