Default Teen Text Message Champ Wins $25K...

Move over Fatal1ty, you’ve just been ousted by Morgan Pozgar, a 13 year old girl from Claysburg, Pennsylvania, as the most nimble fingered geek on the net. If it’s any consolation, you can still claim to be the most marketed, (though that could change if the National Texting Championship takes off as a prime time sport), and I doubt she poses much threat to your Quake 4 reign. Just don’t challenge her to a Battle of the Texts. - Paul Lilly

Hmm, this happened like 2 weeks ago...

And apparently it's big enough to make a CNN headline...

Wow, with headlines like this it makes me wonder. Either the world is really going downhill fast, or there just isn't anything else to report on!
I can't believe there is such a contest, let alone that one could win $25,000 for texting messages on a mobile phone!

My god.... About 16 texts an hour (took out 8 hours for sleeping). I guess that's not bad, but how can you have THAT much to talk about ALL the time.
