1. Major airlines (including, for the first time in its history, Southwest) are reducing their number of flights to combat declining traffic. This includes American Airlines, whose parent company, AMR, is among the 30 largest companies in this WSJ list of 283 that are at the greatest risk of defaulting on their debt. I think that’s a bad thing.

2. Amazingly depressing story alert: An Arlington man thought the worst possible chapter of his life was closed when he watched the execution of his father’s murderer. But today, more than two decades later, he is scheduled to watch the execution of his son’s murderer.

3. Today brings cooler temps and rain for the next three days or so. We need it.
