Today's Headlines

Just a quick update this morning of some stories that caught my eye.

Braille Coins - The U.S. Mint has made the first U.S. coin with braille characters in honor of the 200th birthday of Luis Braille, the creator of the system that has allowed millions of blind to read.

Slow Internet - why would anyone not get broadband access? Seriously, it would be like still driving a Model T car or flying with the Wright Brothers. Perhaps this is just another example of "survival of the fittest", natural internet selection if you will.


So Long Seattle - Being from Cleveland I feel the city of Seattle's pain. When we lost the Browns it was like a part of this town died, like someone had amputated one of our legs. Rest assured Seattle. You have one of the richest people in the world as an owner (Steve Ballmer) who also happens to be stubborn as hell so you will get your team back. If it works anything like the Browns you will be better off because of it in the long run, just give it some time. A side note - Oklahoma City? Are you serious? I think this could be the worst home of a major league franchise other than Green Bay.
