The universe is a strange, unpredictable place. I could list a billion reasons for this, but I'll focus instead on one of the major ones: everyone, everywhere is playing a massive game of Scrabble. You're probably as surprised as I was when I first found out, and I'm sure you have tons of questions. I can't help with that, but what I can do is tell you how well President Obama performed on this eternal Scrabble board during his second inauguration speech. With his frequent usage of ten dollar words like "liberty" and "equal," he scored a total of 238 points.
Barack Obama doesn't have a ton of free time, what with being the President of the United States of America and all. But when he and First Lady Michelle Obama have a few excess minutes on their hands, they often turn to Scrabble for iOS. That in itself is nothing revelatory, but watching them lovingly bicker about it (video below) is nothing short of heartwarming.
With the Presidential Election only a day away, a whopping 6% of voters remain undecided on who to vote for. At this point it seems like flipping a coin, spinning a bottle, or just staying home and skipping the vote altogether are the only options these folks really have. But that's not very democratic!
