Mike Rowe starts us off with The Rowe’s are Much Obliged
If you follow my mom’s page, you’ve probably heard my dad had a serious heart attack the day after Christmas. Obviously, we’ve all been worried, and anxious to understand what comes next. I’m happy to report that he’s home, and beginning what could be a long road back.

The East Coast is sinking at a worrying rate, by which they apparently mean, not nearly fast enough. (Ars Technica)
