- Wolf Blitzer asks Dick Cheney about the rightist reaction to his upcoming grandchild. Uh, awkward.
- Forbes.com ranks the Internet’s top 25 celebrities. Interesting that I’m not included. Obviously, name-recognition/celebrity status is an important criterion for this list, but how are some of the bloggers comparably ranked with the Wikipedia guy? Clearly the latter has a greater impact on the web.
- Roger Federer is a machine. That is all. Oh, and I could sure go for a good tennis match. Too bad it’s January, and that I don’t have a tennis partner.
- There’s a new invention out called the HyperBike (also here). It’s a machine in which the rider stands upright and uses his or her arms for additional power. Allegedly, the contraption will go up to 50 mph. That sounds kind of fun, if true. But I given the wind resistance that thing must generate, I doubt that is a sustainable speed. Moreover, given the HypeBike’s large size and weight (200 pounds), I don’t be trading my Trek in for one anytime soon. Imagine trying to plod uphill on a windy, narrow Tennessee road in that thing.
