No. There is something fishy in Denmark going on. The golf tournament cannot be the #1 news topic three days in a row. Maybe it's "now," the most followed story now? It's just after 8 pm on the Least Coast in the US&A...Is it even still light out? Une momento por favor...DEEP twilight, you could not play golf by that light so if the thing is being played in the East, t'ain't no way. If it's being played on the Left Coast, what the hell time is it out there? 5:12 pm. Absolutely they could still be playing and the folks back east could be watching. But that comes back to, even if it's "now," the PGA Championship is the top Top Story three days in a row at 8 pm EST, 5 pm PST?! Define "top Top," Google. 

China. Man, China. Jew see this?

That's bigger than the hole in the road on Mancunian Way! It looks like the top of a volcano that has just blown. Look at the area immediately around it. Scrubbed clean, except at the bottom of this photograph. Now I ask you: Have you ever seen anything like that in an accidental explosion? That is...just astonishing.

Zhongnanhai is making like Sgt. Schultz in Hogan's Heroes, "I see nothink!" They're saying as close to nothing as possible. Foreign pencils are kept as far away as possible, even the residents can't go back to their homes, they're being kept, I think it is, 3 km away. Chinese are fucking pissed. Quite understandably! They're being given little info, like, what were the chemicals? How did they explode? How could this happen? The death toll is over 100. 100? How could "only" 100+ be killed in that explosion? 

Now this is something that could bite the Center. That first night, the quote from Xi Jinping was odd: "I demand that the fire be put out!" Well, no shit, Sherlock. It sounds clueless but firefighters were actually letting it burn for a little while, concerned that if they rushed in before all the chemicals in the immediate area had gone off they'd be blown up too. As it was, something like a dozen+ firefighters were killed. Xi Jinping's "demand" struck me as odd therefore not because it was clueless, I wondered if it may be a clue. Xi damn well knew the answers to those "what" and "how" questions above and his uncensored, immediate reaction was put out the fire before anybody else finds out. That is how I took it, anyway. Anyway, if there is a "simmering cauldron" of unrest in China, that's the cauldron with the lid blown off. 

Toronto fucking "Blue Jays." I am clueless.

HRC. Don't know why.

Narendra Modi. Who the FUCK is Narendra Modi?

J-E-T-S! SUCK! SUCK! SUCK! A backup player punched the starting quarterback and broke his jaw. This happened 2-3 days ago! 

Trump got called for jury duty. How is that a top story?

BoSox. No idea.

Compton again. Hello, Compton. Keep in touch. 

Pakistan. Wish Tianjin had been in Pakistan.

I'm not doing Google's Top Stories again.

Kenya and Japan outliers today in "Pageviews by Country."

Sail away.
