Yea like people can say all sorts of things about CNN and especially its recent moves. I'm not here to be some ultimate defender of CNN.
But if this means that I can tune in on a Sunday night for 15 minutes to get caught up on the day's news instead of having it be a documentary, I'm down for it. It's been frustrating me for a while that these stations pretend that just because Sunday nights aren't big ratings nights (I assume?) that nothing newsworthy occurs then. Or that there aren't people who keep non traditional hours who want that time for news.

I just watched the HBO Tony Hawk documentary this weekend and one of the people in it was talking about how one thing they loved about skating competitions is that its's the only sport competition that the other competitors are rooting for you to do well too.
This definitely reminded me of that too.

Where'd you get them? I've been growing a few tomato plants since I was a kid. Used to get great crops but the last few years I feel like the weather has been so wonky that they don't do as well as they used to. Might be fun to play around with these.
