News: Germany's Left party calls for 40K per month salary cap

Not entirely unlike my own tax plan. 40K per month is 480K per year. Half a million per year. I think my cap would be a little higher, but this is America. 85K per month is million per year. Might be more palatable (yes...I realize that this is an idealist view and will NEVER occur in the free market society that is America. I'm cool with that. I just like the intellectual exercise.)

List: Floppy disk is 'save' and 14 other icons that make no sense

I personally like the description which features the #getoffmylawn hashtag. And for a taste of irony, for those who don't know what a hashtag is, you're too old. There should be a complimentary list for 14 icons that are new and don't make sense to the codgers. :-)

Obit: Carroll Shelby, of Shelby Cobra/Mustang fame, dead at 89

News: Yahoo CEO wrongly claimed to have computer science degree

What a d-bag. You're going to end up being a MAJOR CEO. You have an accounting degree. Don't get me wrong, I agree with you. CS is WAY more respectable. But, lying? Like no one would find out?

How did anyone find out anyway?
