- Drunken moose ends up stuck in Swedish apple tree – CNN.com – “A Møøse once bit my sister … No realli! … Mynd you, møøse bites Kan be pretty nasti …”

- Brown: Gay Activism Responsible For Murder Of Lawrence King – Yes, if only he’d stayed closeted, he’d have never been targeted for death. In the same way, capitalism is responsible for the conspicuous displays of wealth that lead to robberies, and the Democratic Party is responsible for the selection of John Kennedy as their candidate in 1960, and therefore for his assassination. Yeesh.
- Selling Star Trek – A fun review of the sales brochure NBC used to sell the show to affiliates and advertisers.
- U.S. Migration Patterns and Reasons Why We Move. – Interesting looking at the variation by region.
