Sunrise

The cafe, Sunrise, that is. Second Street.

* As a casual student of both politics and dirt, I found this article, from the unlikely Deep Sea News, totally fascinating: How presidential elections are impacted by a 100 million year old coastline.

* Hello? Apparently, Alexander Graham Bell and Thomas Alva Edison sparred over how to answer the phone. Bell wanted "Ahoy!" Someone wanted "What is wanted?" Edison won with "Hello." (Thanks to that article, I had to look up the definition of "fusty.")

* Some on the right have gone ridiculously shrill in their reactions to the recent Supreme Court healthcare ruling.

* Conversely, my own Republican representative has taken a rather level-headed response to the decision.

* And now for something new and different (to me, anyway), VCR by The xx.
