I look at the ICYMI towards the end of the week or on a weekend and check out the 25% that might be interesting.  Seems like they could just publish that 25% and operate most efficiently.

Basically like a best of.   Whe I upgraded my phone I downloaded the Pulse app which gives me a bunch of stories from different sources to choose from.  I've been reading a lot more newsy stuff lately because of it.  It's nice.

Tom Morello, net worth around $60 mil, showing the world just how much he hates corporations (except the music label he is signed to and all of the companies that endorse him)

It's easier to spread your message and influence people when you have a platform from which to spread your message. If he feels strongly about his message, it would be silly for him to renounce those platforms, even though they run contrary to his beliefs. Practice what you preach would be comically ineffective in this case.

you know who loves the crap out of grantland?  sports journalists.  I'm pretty sure it's written by sports journalists to try to impress or bigtime lower level sports journalists.  and then the lower level sports journalists...being dumbfucks... soak it up and really kiss ass about how much it does, in fact, impress the crap out of them.  it's quite the deal.

He could easily give away his $60M

They haven't read it this week though because they're all masturbating to the georgia student newspaper talk.

Tom Morello has really burned out, which is sad to see. Such a great guitar player. He just plays union rallies and stuff. I mean Tom, I'd rather see you tour with Rage or Audioslave. Not this union "solidarity forever" bull crap.

Then no one would listen to him (b/c he would be poor)
