A few odds and ends for the last weekend before pool season opens:

What a cool story. I can’t even begin to imagine the magnitude of something like this.

Call me a dinosaur, but if I were to be in Vegas between now and August I’d check out Olivia Newton-John’s show at the Flamingo.

I mean, is this a fitting departure or what? Why Kathleen Sebelius isn’t in a federal lock-up for gross incompetence and lying to Congress is beyond me.

…and the same holds true for Lois Lerner and Elijah Cummings.

The latest tally on the back yard cat front: Cat 1, Humans 4.

Is there a better golf tournament in the world to watch in the comfort of your big-screen HD TV living room than the Masters? I don’t think so, although the British Open venues come close.

Speaking of which, golf can be a ruthless game.

…but this story is pretty cool.

Any time the Red Sox beat the Yankees and C.C. Sabathia, it’s a good way to enter any weekend.
