Good old Tom Friedman. Even when I actually agree with his point, his writing is so godawfull I want to strangle him. The real competition is between me and my imagination? Really? How do I and my imagination compete exactly? This man should not be allowed to make metaphors.
Haha, Friedman belongs nowhere near the New York Times. He'd be better suited as the whacky Social Studies teacher somewhere in the midwest (ok, he reminds me of my old social studies teacher).
Couldn't agree more :) I cringed through many pages of "The World Is Flat" in the same manner. The book was quite insightful and was a worthy read, but his treatise of technologies was unbearable at parts.
