  • Outrage of the Day: A horrible car accident? Be sure to charge the black guy.
  • An interesting profile of Obama’s advisors. I find it hard to believe he’ll govern as liberal as he’s campaigning. Still prefer Mccain though.
  • A 16-year-old has consensual sex with a girl. Finds out she’s 13. Now he’s a registered sex offender and is getting constant harassment. The more I read, the more I hate these registries. Just a reminder: 80-90% of sexual crimes are committed by someone the victim knows, not the stranger living down the street.
  • That icon of the 80’s — Sharper Image — is going bankrupt. You could see this coming when they forced their founder out of the CEO chair. Maverick businesses tend to collapse when the maverick leaves — see Dell Computers.
