From Angelica, NY, the town where I grew up. I never played, myself, but it always seemed fun to watch. I kinda wish I’d gotten in on it.
“Those Voices Don’t Speak for the Rest of Us” by RepublicanStudyComm
Congressman Tom Price (R-GA) and the Republican Study Committee present to you a new video featuring President Ronald Reagan reminding us that the out-touch voices of the Democrat Party don’t speak for all Americans.

It’s important that a distinction be made between the two men, in fact. So we at RedState have put together a list - a non-exhaustive list - explaining just how the two are different.
CHART OF THE DAY: The Scariest Jobs Chart Ever Takes A Turn For The Worse
We run this chart every month that Calculated Risk puts together when the jobs data comes out, and it’s always ugly, but this time it shows something really stark.
That red line — which shows the trajectory of our recovery — has now clearly taken a sharp line back down, after (for awhile) curving back higher. Ugly.

Cpl. Matt Garst should be dead.
Few people survive stepping on an improvised explosive device. Even fewer walk away the same day after directly absorbing the force of the blast, but Garst did just that.

Peter Belanger | Blog | Macworld iPhone 4 cover
I’ve always thought it would be cool to photograph the cover of Macworld magazine using an iPhone as my camera. When the new iPhone 4 was released with the 5MP camera, the editors at Macworld were excited to see if it could be done. What better way to showcase the phone’s new camera than to have an iPhone take the photo of the iPhone on the cover?

Note that Gale tacitly admits that the “myth” is actually true. However he tries to caveat that with a horrible result that I assume he believes effectively destroys the point. The tax cuts “raised” government debt.
Uh, no, they didn’t. Excessive government spending without the revenue raised government debt. These tax cuts have now been in place for years and government debt has grown exponentially. How is that the fault of a tax cut or the tax payer?
Of course it’s not – unless you believe that money, all money, really belongs to government and it gets to decide how much you can or can’t have. How else do you claim allowing an earner to keep more of what he earned as a cause for “increased government debt?”

The meeting went well. Not everyone agreed with the decision. But Jan had decided that someone from her division would be stationed at the security door, checking anyone who wasn’t from the company, ensuring that visitors had a visitor’s pass.
Jan sent the memo around, copying the other 49 divisions, plus corporate headquarters, about the policies that were being implemented at the security door between Division 48 and the public area.
Minutes later, the phone rang. It was Eric. He oversaw the security for the company. And he wasn’t happy.
