The Democrats think Romney just self-destructed by pointing out, um, THEIR ENTIRE STRATEGY | The Daily Caller
The Democrats think Romney just self-destructed by pointing out, um, THEIR ENTIRE STRATEGY | The Daily Caller: I can see why Democrats are so offended. How dare Mitt Romney say they’re dependent on the government? Only Democrats get to say they’re dependent on the government! Has everybody already forgotten “Julia”?

Joe Posnanski at the Olympics – NBC Is Ignoring Twitter Diehards — And Rightfully So
Those of us with jobs are happy to see events time-delayed in prime time. Though would it kill NBC to have alternate prime-time Olympics programming on their other channels? I'm sick of swimming.
Joe Posnanski at the Olympics – NBC Is Ignoring Twitter Diehards — And Rightfully So: It feels like everyone is angry. But not everyone is. NBC isn’t doing a disservice to its viewers. It’s just ignoring the ones who don’t matter.

How NOT To Make Friends And Influence People | According To Hoyt
I seriously doubt most CEOs in this country agree with me politically, but why should I care? What's *far* more troubling are elected officials who believe they have the right to police people's thoughts. That's tyranny, folks.
How NOT To Make Friends And Influence People | According To Hoyt: What are you going to do for an encore? Go after every business in this country that’s owned by a religious person? Till – what? – everyone in the nation turns against you and buys a roll of duct tape to shut you up?

How Ellis Island’s First Immigrant, Annie Moore, Became an American Mystery -- New York Magazine
How Ellis Island’s First Immigrant, Annie Moore, Became an American Mystery -- New York Magazine: Maybe as Annie and her two younger brothers waited out their last frigid night on the S.S. Nevada—they had arrived in the harbor on the evening of December 31, 1891—someone explained to them that things had changed. They and the 145 other steerage passengers would be among the first immigrants sent to a new facility whose opening was planned for New Year’s Day.

Rock Climber Alex Honnold Tackles Yosemite’s Biggest Rock Faces - NYTimes.com
My biggest accomplishment for the day was remembering most of the lyrics to "Come On Eileen".
Rock Climber Alex Honnold Tackles Yosemite’s Biggest Rock Faces - NYTimes.com: Honnold was attempting something no one had done before: climb the three biggest rock faces in the California park in succession, alone, and in less than 24 hours. Dubbed the triple, the task would mean scaling the sheer walls of Mount Watkins, El Capitan and Half Dome for a total of about 7,000 vertical feet of rock.
