Bye-bye Bloomberg (2:07) . . . A recap of the last 12 years under the NYC Nanny.

Cease and Desist . . . Starbucks and their big guns (lawyers) go after a tiny pub for trademark infringement and get for their efforts $6 in damages and this hilarious (and viral) shellacking. Score one for the little guy!

Props from Pyongyang (1:45) . . . Apparently the Glorious Leader likes individual mandates too.
