Hatchet-wielding hitchhiker, chummy President Obama and job-seeking bear fighter

Editor's note: There's so much that's beautiful, funny, smart and informative on the Internet. Problem is, there's also a bunch of garbage. Here's the best of the web right now.

1. Hatchet-wielding hitchhiker saves woman from racist hug assault, gives best interview ever. If that Buzzfeed headline didn't draw you in, then I am out of ideas.

2. President Obama gets colloquial in middle of press conference, asks cameraman "What's up?" Yep. That happened.

3. What your signature size says about you: You're a narcissist and you'd be a bad CEO. Wait, you mean if I sign my name in a large, outlandish way, it reveals my opinion of myself is also inflated and unrealistic? That sounds about right.

4. South Korean man writes epic job application. It's not exactly clear what position he's applying for, but he wanted his potential employer to know that he smiles a lot and can fight bears and outrun trains. You're hired.

5. Man wrongfully imprisoned 25 years for wife's murder testifies against prosecutor accused of withholding evidence. The case of Michael Morton has more drama than a Lifetime movie but just as much heartbreak. Texas Monthly's Pamela Colloff follows up her excellent series on Morton with a dispatch from the Williamson County Courthouse.

Nelly will perform at Dos Equis Pavilion on September 5, 2025 as part of the Where The Party At Tour.

Rapper Nelly will celebrate a big anniversary with the massive Where The Party At Tour in 2025, which will include a stop at Dos Equis Pavilion in Dallas on Friday, September 5.

The tour is in celebration of the 25th anniversary of Nelly's debut studio album, Country Grammar. He'll be joined by a series of special guests, including Ja Rule on all U.S. dates.

Other special guests on the tour (though not necessarily in the U.S.) will include Eve, St. Lunatics, Fabolous, Jermaine Dupri, and Chingy.

The 54-city worldwide tour will start with international dates in New Zealand, Australia, Canada, and multiple European countries before kicking off its U.S. leg on July 23 in Bristow, Virginia.

In addition to Dallas, the tour will also go to The Woodlands outside of Houston on September 4.

Country Grammar started Nelly's career in a big way, going to No. 1. He followed that up four more top 3 albums thanks to hits like "Hot in Herre," "Dilemma," and "Ride wit Me."

The tour will take fans on a journey through Nelly’s career, including those chart-topping hits and more.

Tickets will be available starting with various presales beginning on Tuesday, December 10 starting at 10 AM, including the Citi Entertainment Program.
