I’ll be out of town over the long weekend, and mostly off-grid.

Regular blogging will resume on Tuesday.

When people disagree with something, they are generally reluctant to ascribe depth or nuance to it. Its motives must also be checkered; how could anyone actually believe that?!

Congratulations to all you Giants fans out there. This recap video from Taiwan-based NMA.tv is too funny not to share, though it isn’t kind to either the Patriots or Madonna. Click here if the embed doesn’t work.

Comedy gold with Rowan Atkinson. Click here if the embedded movie doesn’t work. Contains some offensive language.

Lori Dorn is a breast cancer survivor. Her hair still hasn’t grown back after enduring chemotherapy. She must look very suspicious, because here’s what she went through on a recent trip:

The TSA pulled her aside for a breast patdown, even though she stated she had breast implants in place after her bilateral mastectomy. Of course, that didn’t stop them. They didn’t even let her take out the Device Identification Card that would could have explained where the implants came from and their medical purpose.

The Cardinals earned a sweep. As I said not too long ago, they are no pushovers; point proven. The Brewers have had an amazing month. Two bad weeks knock them out of the playoffs. Nothing is settled.

From here, the Crew hit the road for 3 games against lowly Houston. Then it’s off to St. Louis for one last chance to dim the Cardinals’ postseason hopes.

The magic number remains 18.
