19 people who had a terrible day
These sorts of things pop up every so often on the Internet. If you can revel in schadenfreude, take a look.
Noteworthy entries.
Parking meter heaven
I parked in front of several identical unusual parking meters in Kansas City yesterday. If a person were so inclined, he or she could simply reach into the open bottom half of the meter, grab a few coins that were already there, then put them into the top of the meter, watching them drop to the bottom again. If one were so inclined, one could completely fill the meter with time by doing this over and over. The fact that the bottom contains more than a few quarters speaks to the honesty of people from Kansas City. 
Interview to remember
The free spirit being interviewed, "Kai," describes how he saved a woman who was being attacked. Fascinating character study.
Misconceptions
Wikipedia has a large and growing list of misconceptions. Lots of things that lots of people get wrong.
Inspiration to keep trying
Things weren't easy for the Beatles in the beginning, and this article (and video) make that clear. I find this to be inspirational--in the beginning of an endeavor, you often need to swallow your pride and just keep working at things. Many worthwhile projects are marathons, not sprints. Further, the 10,000 hour rule will often be part of the process, you aren't an expert at what you are trying to be, not at the very beginning.
