News: Truro, MA incorrectly calculates two-thirds vote
136 to 70. That doesn't pass with a two-thirds majority. A two thirds majority would be 137.3333 repeating forever. This means that you need 138 votes for the measure for a two-thirds majority. Found a hilarious comment though: 'This is maybe third or fourth grade level math here people, and it's kinda sad that there is even any confusion about it. .66 is not 2/3, it's a little less than 2/3 and it does not count if the law says 2/3. You know good and well these #$%holes were the kids who used to ask ''Why will I ever need to know this stuff in real life?'' when they were kids. Well, you stupid #$%es, this is why.'

News: Google in talks to buy ITA Software
My go-to airfare search tool might be bought out by teh Google. Not sure what I think about that. Nothing against Google...except that it's truly aiming for world domination. Just worries me a bit. Not that I don't love their services (GOOG-411, Google Reader, etc.)
