This week, we rapid fire through five or six headlines:

• a story from the You Can't Make This Stuff Up file
• the polls weren't as wrong as I told you they were
• a university takes a step to coddle students and their grades even more
• a study on childhood reading that a child could have predicted

Then, we bring it home with a quote from the layer that defended the British soldiers charged after the Boston Massacre and went on to serve as President of the United States, and we do it all in less time than it takes for your icecream cone to start quickly dripping.

…and as always, thanks for listening.
