My other grandpa was a poor Pennsylvania farmer.

I think the stupidest defense of the players going to the WH or SOTU is that it's "every kids dream" or "chance of a lifetime". You're a multimillionaire athlete who just won an Olympic gold, you've already lived more dreams than 99.9999% of the population. Maybe shelve this one for a minute

I can't get over this number: in 2007, there were 360,000 newspaper jobs. Now, there are 80,000. "My local paper sucked!" Sure. What sucks even more? The void. "I get all my news from the Guardian!" No, the Guardian doesn't report on your town council, your school board, local cops.
