- I like my toast either an 7 or 15.

- With the exception of Senator Marco Rubio, I’m quite certain I can beat all of them in a 40-yard or 100-yard dash.
- I like both ‘Modern Family’ and ‘Life in Pieces’, but for now, I’ll take the latter. It comes on tonight on CBS if you are interested. And as much as I like ‘Modern Family’, they have the worst little children actors.
- My current hometown news – Stolen Hedgehog Returned, Home Safe and Sound – It’s one thing to steal a hedgehog, but returning it in a plastic bag kinda sounds scary.
- President Obama is officially tired of selfies – Obama noted how the selfie has tainted campaign trail traditions like shaking hands and kissing babies. – If I was a candidate, I’d prefer the selfie over the chance of spreading germs, but then again, I’m a germaphobe.
- Two Would-Be American Airlines Passengers Allegedly Tried to Sneak Razors Past Security at LaGuardia – That’s an interesting picture of a straight-blade razor embedded in the inside sole of the shoe.
- Twitter promises to make replies and other features less confusing
- Whatever happened to waterbeds? – By 1984, waterbeds were a $2 billion business. At the height of their popularity, in 1987, 22 percent of all mattress sales in the U.S. were waterbed mattresses.

- Here’s an interesting story of NASA Administrator Charles Bolden, the first black person to hold the position. Some highlights:
- Bolden was a South Carolina kid who wanted to go to the Naval Academy, but his state representatives wouldn’t nominate him, Strom Thurman flat out told him no way.
- But he had a backup plan. As a junior in high school, he was in correspondence with Vice President Lyndon B. Johnson. Everyone was/is eligible for a nomination from the vice president, but only children of armed forces personnel are eligible for a presidential nomination. JFK was killed when he was a senior in high school and LBJ became president, which threw a wrench in his backup plan. However, he wrote the new president a letter, stated that he understood he would not be eligible for a presidential nomination, and asked if he could be referred to someone who could consider the nomination.
- He served in the Marine Corps as an aviator, flying more than 100 combat missions in North and South Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia.
- He became a NASA astronaut and traveled to orbit four times aboard the space shuttle. After his last space flight, he returned to the Marine Corps and achieved the rank of major general.
