Anything but water

• "Man sues Florida for right to flash headlights" [to alert other drivers of hiding police] and wins, based on free speech. Good. Police need to spend more time catching criminals and cleaning up accidents, not stalking people. 
• Flying in the US? Check out Google Flights. 
• The Fraying of a Nation's Decency -- an interesting essay on how Americans see each other as disposable instead of as neighbors. For more on America's "no can do" decline, read this (via RW).  
• Agro-imperialism is real -- and big.
• The trials and tribulations of the rich -- Jon Stewart calls "phony" on claims that higher taxes on millionaires would kill jobs.  (I've heard Mankiw and O'Reilly claim they'd quit if taxes went up. Sounds like win-win to me!)
