Microsoft Bids for Yahoo

Microsoft has offered to buy Yahoo for $45 billion. [ See story ]

Bill Gates said he has the money, and was either going to use it to assure every African has access to basic medicine and nutrition, or that Microsoft has access to tens of millions of Americans' back-up email addresses.

Analysts say its a natural fit, as Yahoo's large graphic ads freeze its users' browsers, and Windows biggest strengths is its ability to repeatedly Control-Alt-Delete any software.

Steve Ballmer announced the offer by slamming 2 pints of Red Hook IPA and screaming, "That's tasty, but wait'll you try a Micro-hoo!"
