Dave Barry has a great column on farm subsidies.
Making America Safe for Mohair
It's fun to be able to laugh at politics for once (instead of scream...or cry).

There is an amazing design that has been proposed to replace the World Trade Center. It is essentially a mini city that would also be the world's tallest building...
