• Here's a list of states ranked for business by CEOs. The Top 10, led by Texas, are mostly "red" states. The bottom five, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Michigan, New York, and California are pretty solidly "blue" states. Kansas and Missouri are right in the middle, at 25 and 26, respectively.
• I patched my first bicycle tire today. Brennan ran over a screw with his new bike and I did the repair, removing the tube, finding the leak, patching it, adding sealant, and doing all sorts of other things YouTube taught me.
• Are you tracking what TV shows are getting canceled? I am. I'll post something at the end of the week after all the networks announce their plans to ruin television as we know it.
• The NBA lottery order is decided tonight, which might affect two KU players (Aldrich and perhaps Henry).
• Did you hear that Ted Turner thinks God is telling us something? It's not about oil wells or environmentalism or any other item in the news but God is trying to tell us something. Good try there, Ted, even a stopped clock is right twice a day.
• Great new poster for the next Narnia movie. Did you spot the Dawn Treader?
