Miguel Tejada getting away with lying to Congress about talking "performance enhancing substances."  Why was Michael Phelps not allowed to compete for three months because he was photographed smoking from a bong (pot, of  course) at a party while not training or competing? Tejada used a banned substance to enhance his athletic performance (and he is a professional, while Phelps receives no salary for swimming) and got away scot-free? Why are these baseball players (liars and cheats) excused and coddled? They bashed Phelps for setting a bad example for the youth, but what about Tejada and A-Rod who not only used these drugs, but LIED about it? And Phelps took full responsibility while the two baseball babies blamed it on everyone else (including the "loosey goosey" standards in baseball)!   
A story that made me happy was Arkansas Governor Beebe signing the lottery bill! I love the lottery!!!! And bingo, too!
