Mad Men spent around $250k to have a Beatles song in an episode
I’d guess that was 7.5% of the operating budget for that episode. Well played. Like a celebrity appearance but as a song.
Good article but it fails to note some nuances of getting the Beatles on the air.

I’m 41 and I DO NOT tuck my casual t-shirt into my jeans. T-shirts are made for hanging free, like you’re sitting around drinking a beer and watching a game with friends. only time I tuck my shirt into jeans is when I’m wearing a collared shirt, like a golf shirt.

Washington post article:
Hills was said to have shocked with remarks that awards “don’t matter,” urged more traffic-driving slideshows over original Post photos, and compared the Post to Ohio’s Dayton Daily News, a paper with one-fifth the circulation of the 508,000-circ Post.
Take a Dickensian approach and do more with less.

Female Breasts Are Bigger Than Ever, But Under Threat
This is something I can get behind.

Florence Williams gets right to the bosom of her new book in its first line, reeling off names for the most beloved part of the female anatomy: “Funbags. Boobsters. Chumawumbas. Dingle bobbers. Dairy pillows. Jellybonkers. Nim nums.”
Don’t forget Tittays, Coconuts, Globes, Kazongas, Knockers, or Zeppelins

Gassy dinosaurs helped warm Earth
Study author David Wilkinson of Liverpool John Moores University in England estimated that about 570 million tons of methane came from dinosaurs.
The study looks at the biggest — and presumably gassiest — dinosaurs, called sauropods. These were the long-necked plant eaters that munched on the top of trees. They were large animals that had food fermenting in their guts for long periods of time because of their giant size.
Wilkinson said dinosaur gas was just one factor at a time when the world was quite tropical, about 18 degrees warmer than now (10 degrees Celsius).

Feel bad for Ward, drew the penalty that lead to Carlson’s goal, then was in the box for the tying and game winning goals.

A goal was scored and the penalty continued into OT IIRC
The penalty was a double minor (4 minutes) for high sticking (it’s automatic when blood is drawn). So the tying goal causes the first of the 2 minutes to expire, the remaining 2 minutes has to be served.

Highly sarcastic. Webercantcoach is serious about this though. He thinks the Bulls will let Thibs go, and is actually somewhat confident about it. Obviously, this would be one of the top 5 mistakes made in the NBA in the last 10 years, but that doesn’t stop old webs from making the call.

that has been the case for a long, long time.

Biggio walked straight to him, signed his baseball, shook his hand. My kid said “Thanks Mr. Biggio”. His response, “Thanks for being so respectful”
