Three of our first five presidents died on Independence Day. Everyone is quite familiar with Jefferson and Adams, but can you name the third? Answer is at the end of this post.
I don’t know much about Mary Carillo, but she annoys me. If she and Ann Curry ever did a segment together I would probably douse myself with gasoline and light a cigarette.

An interesting new U2 book that looks at all their studio albums and the influence of Biblical text on Bono, I just don’t know if it is available in English.
