When you're smiling..
The world smiles along with you, or so go the song lyrics. It seems when you're NASA mourning, the world rips your images to their own political purpose. Genuine mistake or not? Crappy journalism or not? We await the conservative weasel's usual diatribe, but methinks this is just crappy journalism in the era of minimal fact check, maximal spin doctoring.

When you're struggling
The world still smiles at you, if you're the Yankees. What gets me is that in the current offensive funk, even the (alleged, and so-called) 'fans' at Yankee Stadium have started to dance on the heads of their guys. Man, booing Jeter is plain ungrateful and dumb. This is Derek Jeter you are booing, people. The NYTimes has put in a little voice on Jeter's behalf. I guess people feel that at 80 USbucks a ticket, the Yankees ought to win every game; that combined with a league-leading 190million dollar payroll, if they lose, it's fair game to boo. It's one thing for the Red Sox fans to boo Jeter (you expect that), but the fairweather-bandwagon fans who have turned on their man makes one sick. How short is their memory?
End baseball-related rant of the day.
