Traveling the globe&#8212;without a driver's license!  She's&#8212;Kim Possible!  And she can do anything.<\/p>\n<p>Kim: Except get to school on time.<\/p><\/blockquote><\/li>\n<li>An ad&#8212;not, technically, a preview&#8212;for the <cite><a href=\"http:\/\/www.artemisfowl.com\/\">Artemis Fowl<\/a><\/cite> books (if you have Flash, you can read the first couple chapters of each of the two books online), which in addition to quoting the high-powered book reviewers, has rave-review quotes from \"Sara Chase, Age 12\" and \"Sam Haass, Age 9.\"  I was looking at these books in a bookstore recently; sounds like they might be worth taking a look at.\n<\/ul>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I finally managed to hook up my PowerBook&#8217;s DVD player to my TV.
