Ha!

Anyone else notice the stock photo Firedog (Circuit City's Computer Service Group) and Ubuntu both decided to use on their webpage for online support?  Playing Photohunt on the interweb is my part time hobby...

It's probably a Getty Images shot, they make tons of stock photos.

Oh man, that article had me in stitches the first time I read it. Maddox is the best!

Yeah, that was the first Maddox article I ever read. Don't know what took me so long :-)

Maddox was a healthy part of my adolescent years. Parents didn't like it, but that's what made it enjoyable.
