Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg married Priscilla Chan a day after FB went public. It was a financial decision. She just graduated from medical school and he just made twenty billion playing the stock market, and they figure they can't both be shut down by the government.
San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee named a street after Nancy Pelosi in Golden Gate Park Monday. It connects John F. Kennedy Drive to Martin Luther King Drive. The sign wasn't up fifteen minutes and already the street was being sexually harassed by its intersections.
Babe Ruth's first New York Yankees jersey sold at auction for four million dollars on Sunday. He may be the greatest athlete ever to play the game. Babe Ruth set all his home-run records back when adultery was a crime, long before it was the National Pastime.
