• A Day In the Life of a Blacksmith
  A blacksmith's diary from around 1869, in blog form. Surprisingly little political content (I'd think there'd be one or two mentions of the Civil War). Still pretty fun to read.

• Poker Journal – I am a Stats Geek Like No Other by Daniel Negreanu
  'Of the 176 players eligible with enough events played, only 56 of those have an ROI of $20,000 or more. Shockingly, of the 176 eligibly, only 90 of those actually have an ROI of over $10,000. That means there are 86 people out there who have played 30 or more events and are overall losers to the investment.

  A lot of the players between $10,000 and $20,000 are alos likely losers. What does that tell you? You better be playing satellites if you want to be able to afford the tour. Either that, or grind it out in the cash games.'

  Whoa. This might be the most interesting Fresh Air interview ever. Terri Gross is not quite prepared for Tracy Morgan's yelling and crying. He's defensive, and like he says, surprisingly Tyson-like.

• iPhone Game Edge by Mobigame Under Threat Again from Tim Langdell | Cult of Mac
  So, this guy basically makes money by suing anyone that tries to release a game with "edge" in its name. Now he's trying to take down an independently developed iPhone game and also butting heads with EA.
