1. PRESIDENT MAKING CASE FOR MILITARY STRIKE
American retaliation for Syrian chemical use would send a "strong signal," he says.
Well, I'd say that it's obvious where the next war is going to be.
2. QUESTIONS ARISE ABOUT STRENGTH OF US INTEL
The evidence linking Assad or his inner circle to the purported chemical weapons attack so far is no "slam dunk," officials tell the AP.
I don't get it.
3. OBAMA: KING'S DREAM NOT YET REALITY
On the 50th anniversary of the civil rights leader's famous speech, the president also challenges new generations to seize the cause of racial equality.
And gender equality
4. HUNGRY FOR HIGHER PAY
Thousands of fast-food workers seeking better wages are set to stage walkouts in dozens of cities around the
While everyone deserves a shot at good pay, the fast food people need to recognize that they are not in a position that requires any real skill. Plus, the mumbled 'have a nice day' they say to you at the drive thru when they aren't even looking at you, doesn't qualify as terrific service.
5. WHO'S NOT HITTING THE ROAD
After rising for decades, total vehicle use in the U.S. - the collective miles people drive - peaked in 2007.
Gas is expensive. I try to walk where I can around here.
6. MONTANA JUDGE STANDS BY 30-DAY JAIL TERM FOR RAPIST
He has said the 14-year-old victim was as much in control as the former teacher who assaulted her. The girl later killed herself.
I didn't hear about this. That kinda sucks. I know a kid who was manipulated by a teacher into having sex with them at the age of 12 or 13. That kid is pretty mentally fucked up from the experience.
7. WHAT'S TOPS AMONG ILLEGAL DRUGS
It's pot. But a global survey also finds that addictions to painkillers like Vicodin, Oxycontin and codeine kill the most people.
Because businesses don't test for those types of drugs.
8. DOCTOR: JACKSON SOUGHT PROPOFOL YEARS AGO
She says she refused the singer's late 1990s request, telling him the drug wasn't appropriate as a sleep aid.
He was a druggie, plain and simple.
9. HOW JOHNNY MANZIEL IS BEING PUNISHED
The QB, who signed autographs for memorabilia brokers, will be forced to sit out the first half of Texas A&M's season-opener Saturday against Rice.
I know nothing of this and have no opinion.
10. JAMES BLAKE'S CAREER COMES TO A CLOSE
The American suffers a five-set loss to Croatia's Ivo Karlovic. Blake announced earlier that the U.S. Open would be his last pro tournament.
When will tennis be done? I am waiting for the hockey talk to start.

Just because someone can call me Mom now doesn't mean I am gonna be Betty Freakin Cocker and bake any pies.
Beckster is the new Dexter
