fyi, Leyan's new WR also was mentioned in Jay Leno's monologue last night [late night talk show here in the US]. anyone else catch that? Congrats again to Leyan on his awesome time!
the joke is mentioned on Leno's website and went something like: A twenty-year-old student at Caltech set a new world's record when he solved the Rubik's Cube in eleven seconds -- eleven seconds! -- which would be pretty impressive if this was 1983. (He also made some crack about not being able to get his out of the box in 11 seconds; and how he had to take his apart in order to solve it again) I went to the site to see if I could get the clip, but it's not up... --Kirk --- In [email protected], Tyson Mao <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Yeah, Leyan took it up the butt from reporters yesterday.
