Microsoft Messing with Yahoo Again

According to the WSJ tonight -- and I can almost not bear to type these irritating words -- Microsoft is messing with Yahoo again. The story says that Microsoft is working at pulling together a consortium of folks who might buy the pieces of a broken-up Yahoo, the search part of which would go to Microsoft.

Showing how boring this story has become even to professional journalists, that news plays second fiddle, at least in terms of word count, to a tick-tock about how the Microsoft/Yahoo deal fell apart last time around. It is replete with golf games, giggles, and a woman with a red umbrella. Nuttiness.
