Mike Repole never thought, at age 13, when he was making his first bets at a small track in Jamaica, New York, called Aqueduct, that today he would have his own horse competing in the Kentucky Derby, Stay Thirsty. A second horse, which was a Derby favorite, Uncle Mo, was pulled out just before betting opened, due to a mysterious stomach ailment.

A true confession: last Sunday night when I heard the news of Osama bin Laden’s death, I initially reacted like a proud Democrat -- something along the lines of, “I dare you to say President Obama hasn’t achieved anything!” like I was sticking my tongue out at a chagrined, defeated Donald Trump on the playground. In the wake of his antics, I felt nice and justified up on my high horse, looking down at all of the Obama naysayers who now had to eat crow.

One detail I've been going over repeatedly is the response of the Pakistani military on Sunday night during the raid. Here's what we know: They knew there was a disturbance in Abbottabad, as locals were complaining, and floated the notion of a training accident. They didn't know the raid was on. They scrambled their jets, and arrived on the scene. The American SEAL teams were in and out of there already, so there was no confrontation. Here's White House counterterrorism advisor John Brennan on the subject:

The New York Post's Keith J. Kelly is reporting that Condé Nast will begin offering $19.99 annual digital subscriptions to The New Yorker as early as next week, with other titles to follow. This suggests an end, or maybe just the beginning of an end, to the pricing logjam that's [...]

For Horace Dediu, the influential mobile pundit behind the asymco blog, even his throwaway comments are more interesting than the best stuff of other analysts. Case in point: on Thursday, Dediu wrote that "feature tablets" are coming, and not only will be "analogous" to featurephones but also will "be viable as niche businesses quite soon." Provocative stuff - though not totally correct in my opinion.

Market research used to be a calming activity, like a relaxing game of golf. You would see some trend in the market and commission a survey or some other form of research. A couple of months or more would go by as you played a few more holes. Then you would get an answer. No rush. No hurry. No worry about how much the market changed between the time of your insight until the time you answered your question.

Mark Zuckerberg is, at age 26, on the young side for a first-time home buyer these days. But the Facebook cofounder and chief executive isn’t exactly stretching financially to make his first purchase. Valued at $13.5 billion, and with a persona made famous by the Oscar-winning film The Social Network, Zuckerberg recently plunked down a relatively paltry $7 million for his first home.

My kids and I have a new game we play while driving around Manhattan:  spot the dirty restaurants.  It's easy.  You just look for the large letter grade posted on the restaurant storefront.  If it's an "A", it's usually prominently displayed on the front door, next to the menu.  The "B's" are typically on a side window.  The "C's" are the most challenging to find -- and thus, earn the most points in our game.  Last week, I spotted one on a restaurant's side window, behind a planter, posted at the eye level of a toddler.
