I'll tip-toe around the obvious news story. My dad once said that you don't talk bad about someone once they've passed on, regardless of the ill they brought to the world. So that's what I'll do.
For those among the living, we have Republican Survivor. Another game is Presidental Knockout. Guess whose butt I chose to slap down. Also, I didn't make this up, so bear with me.

Two technology articles to pass along. One is a Popular Science story about a guy who spent some time this year trying to emulate life in 1954. Kind of a revelation on how much tech we've gotten used to. Another article covers the measure of a death penalty in a tongue-in-cheek way concerning virus writers and other filth.
