Monday Rundown: Loves Little League Dad Aggression
[box_light] It’s Monday, and if you’re new to Quarterlife Man (welcome), you’re new to the Monday Rundown. The Monday Rundown is a compendium of randomness compiled over the course of each week. Enjoy… [As always, if you've seen something crazy or have a suggestion, email us or tell us on Twitter (@QuarterlifeMan).] [/box_light] [divider]
––Little League Dads Fighting In Georgia:
How have we not made a TV show about feisty Little League dads for some cable network yet?
The fight happened in Columbus, Georgia and further reinforces my thinking about fighting in Georgia: don’t do it. Do you see those men out there? Find one under 250 lbs…

––The Unemployment Rate is Dropping…
…for every state that elected a Republican governor in 2010. States like Florida and Michigan saw the biggest decreases (with 2.3 & 2.4 percent, respectively). For some states that elected Democrats (like New York), the unemployment rate is actually up.

––Find Wal Mart. Turn into Library.
Look at what folks did to an abandoned Wal Mart store in McAllen, Texas:
[box_light]PSFK points us to the library, which recently won the 2012 Library Interior Design Award. Designed by Meyer Scherer & Rockcastle, Ltd. (the interior) and Boultinghouse Simpson Architects (the exterior), the library is located inside a 124,500 square foot former Walmart store–making it the largest single-story library in the U.S.
The space includes a computer lab, study rooms, study areas for children, teens, and adults, a cafe, an auditorium, a genealogy research area, and more. Library goers apparently love the new design–registration has increased 23% since the revamp earlier this year.[/box_light]

––Panoramic Mars!
A panorama from NASA’s Mars expedition. So cool.
