I just turned on my computer this morning to find out that the Giants won the World Series. And? I don't care. Unfortunately for Major League Baseball, neither does anyone else outside of San Francisco and Arlington/Dallas. For me, baseball season has been over since July because I'm a Mets fan.

Not every decision warrants an hour-long television program, but every choice matters. No action, regardless of how minute it may seem, occurs without consequence. Consider waking up. The alarm goes off and you're forced to make an early decision: should you get out of bed, snooze for five minutes, or turn the alarm off entirely? It's a minor choice, but it has spiraling effects.

In Australia this past week, 3,600 record sales were enough to give a British metal band the number one position on the music chart - an all time low. I'm never one to speak out against illegal downloading, which is undoubtedly the primary reason behind the recent low sales, but this is a completely alarming piece of information.
