Alex, the college student who made good with the Million Dollar Homepage idea that none of us could believe we didn’t think of first, is back post-million with a philanthropic offering. No, that’s not the right description.

All this fervent ad clicking presents an incentive for advertisers to keep investing in this pay-per-pixel insanity we thought would die and stay dead after Alex had enough money to get those socks he wanted so badly. Will the pixel Boy Wonder do it again? – Contributed by Angela Natividad

I’m 73 and I can tell you that the loneliest thing about getting older isn’t the empty house — it’s watching your children build traditions that don’t include you and pretending you’re happy for them because the alternative is becoming the mother who made it about herself
