Random Tuesday

Here's another sign the Earth is about to be crushed by a planet killing meteor:  Anne Hathaway has an Academy Award.

It always amazes me that when someone outrageous, like Seth MacFarlane, is picked for a big job, such as hosting the Academy Awards, people are shocked when he says something outrageous.

I'm really sick of the Oscar Pistorious story, but I understand the media's fascination with it.  You have a well known suspect, and a spectacularly beautiful victim.  Pistorious' ability to overcome a handicap is nothing short of amazing.

The winter of 2012-13 really hasn't been a severe one.  It's just seemed longer than usual.

I caught a couple innings of a spring training baseball game Sunday.  It was meaningless, but nice to see nonetheless.

USA Today reported Jared Fogle's association with Subway is now 15 years old.  Has there ever been a better and more effective advertising campaign?

ABC News did a very good "sequester" piece over the weekend.  The proposed cuts are only a tiny fraction of the federal budget.

We had a homicide in Hazleton Saturday night.  Something was missing:  the proclamation from officials that we shouldn't be concerned because this wasn't a random act.
