Gleanings: Conventions, Song Birds and Peanut Milk
- Today is the anniversary of the riots at the 1968 Democratic National Convention in Chicago. My mother was there got clubbed in the knees by cops and tear gassed. It’s a great country. (via The Writer’s Almanac).
- According to this article, the school cafeteria is becoming the battlefield in the struggle against childhood obesity. Also called “the end of Turkey Surprise.”
- This article reminded me that the Songbird music player, supposedly the Cadillac to the iTunes Camry, will have a Mac version in about the year 2056.
- Have you tried peanut milk yet? It’s apparently the next wonder food. I had some today. Tasty (via Valleywag).
