    They expect to find some people living in there, but only end up interviewing a couple of bums who live there.

    And the news is where? I expected it to take 15 minutes to drive to work today. I was wrong, it took 25, there was construction. I should write an article about my trip and post to slashdot.

    Mod me down if you want, but this story isn't worthy of a real comment.

    Personally, I'm curious why the personal habits of the Slashdot editors need to be declared on the front page. What they do behind closed doors is their own business, and I'm really not against homosexuals on principle, but an article about ass spelunking? Gimme a break.

    Alright bums are people unless you started calling other beings "bums" as well but you know how it is - i know of several undergrad kids who call themselves bums
    No wait - i know what they were expecting - a drug cartel, a casino and a mall - boy it sure hurts and disappoints when all you find is a couple of bums and not people.
    Alright that was a little attempt at irony - are we having another slow day here ? We can talk about WorldComm or perhaps about the upcoming issue of Playboy which has an "infotech administrator" and "datebase admin" among a group of ten women from Enron (i hear tongues now :O ) or perhaps someone could post how Orbitz is being seen as a potential monopoly that could airline travel in the near future.
