I don’t care whether you agree or disagree with Kurt Vonnegut – he’s still an amazing and provocative writer at age 81. His essay Cold Turkey was sent to me by one of my partners. He included a Bush Approval Rating Meter in his subtle email to me.

As I said to the friend who sent the speech to me: Vonnegut is a national treasure. Dave, I understand his bitterness.

The best part of this time of year, though, are the graduation speeches. Here’s Jon Stewart’s:
