Mother's Day 2013
My Mom passed away at home, but under hospice care, on May 12th of ‘10, a few days after Mother’s Day of that year. I went down to Florida to spend that weekend with her, before having to head out on a long business trip. She was in her final days of battling Alzheimer’s, so I have no idea if she knew I was there, nor did I realize it would be the last day I would see her.

Can you name which unethical business practice John McCain referred to today as an “injustice being inflicted on the American people” while introducing a bill to stop it?
THE ANSWER MAY SURPRISE YOU.
Wow. That answer did surprise me.

Martina Navratilova: Times Are Changing →
Any revolution starts with a small step. As I see it, this one started with Vikings punter Chris Kluwe and his R-rated (but darn smart and funny) editorial on Deadspin last year. That was a catalyst because it then became clear: Straight players were standing in support of gays in general — and their gay teammates, whoever they might be. Those gay athletes might have been deeply closeted, but...

An entomologist hired by the state of Florida to find any surviving members of five rare butterflies species spent six years on the search instead of the two without finding any.
This is pretty terrible.
“There are three butterflies here that have just winked out and no one did a thing about it.”. I suppose I can play the role of Captain Obvious...

Martina Navratilova came out publicly in 1981
That’s not to diminish what Jason Collins has done in any way, but rather to remind everyone that there are others who have taken the same courageous steps as he has. Do not forget the athletes who were willing to share their personal lives with the public before now, hopefully paving the way for Collins & others.
