Man, imagine you're minding your own business, getting kind of drunk with your friends at a picturesque brewery in Maine, when suddenly John Roberts walks by and you get to start heckling him. Must have felt incredible. That's the dream. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/01/u...

The chief justice used to preside over a Supreme Court whose members were afforded more privacy and freedom than many other public officials. Once, years ago, Mr. Lipson and the chief justice found themselves up the peninsula from Port Clyde without a car, Mr. Lipson recalled in an interview. So he stuck out his thumb by the side of the road and a pickup truck pulled over. He and the nation’s top jurist hopped in the back and hitchhiked back to town.

Now, Mr. Lipson said, he is cautious about introducing his friend to strangers. This year, on an outing to nearby Monhegan Island, people recognized the chief justice as he walked by a brewery and started to chant: You should be ashamed.

Pete is lost in terms of modern war. I use the example of this outgunned Ukrainian army officer who successfully terrorized a Russian unit for weeks because she "did the math." At the time, someone commented, "yeah, in combat, 'I did the math' beats 'I can do 100 pushups' every time."

Ukrainian female soldier: Okay, I said the idea is this: There is enough time to empty one full can of 32 grenades and be gone by the time the return mortar fire reaches us. I did the math.

1: “CORNBREAD, Earl and Me.” Mid-70s gritty slice-of-life drama that has a great message, but it’s let down by some hacky writing and poor production values— too bad. Notable for co-starring Laurence Fishburne (in his first feature film) and future basketball Hall of Famer Jamaal “Silk” Wilkes

If someone contends they've never even heard "Haitian Divorce" or "My Old School," it may say more about them. With incessant news coverage and chart presence, it's pretty difficult to still claim total ignorance. There is a deeper reason why people say they haven't heard it: cultural cachet

This is Roy Hartsfield, the first-ever manager of the Toronto Blue Jays. This photo was taken in February of 1977. At that time he was 51 years and four months old. We don't thank the sunscreen/moisturizer industry nearly enough for all it has done for us.

1: “Finding Forrester,” aka the “you’re the man now, dog” movie. A talented, unfocused kid from the Bronx starts working with a reclusive novelist (Sean Connery) to hone his writing skills. It’s a familiar plot and the story beats aren’t surprising, but the Connery-Rob Brown rapport ups this a notch

1: “Phone Booth,” Colin Farrell steps into a phone booth and gets on the line with a sadistic sniper who’ll kill him if he hangs up. Solid premise but too many plot holes for me. It irrationally bothered me that the sniper’s voice didn’t sound like it would coming over the phone, but that’s just me
