The Weekend Desk is proud to say we never try to make anything look better.

Market Update
The future of the controversial Bliss Index was called into question this week when market leader Ignorance was forced to admit it had grossly overestimated its holdings.

Breaking The Wave

Diplomawesomeness

RomneyCare

Bieb Racer
