Wow, seriously? Totally clear downtown. So far, anyway.
Buffy: How was school today? Dawn: The usual. A big square building filled with boredom and despair.
Buffy: Just how I remember it.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
We've got a monsoon out here on the North Shore right now.
It's not raining here (I stayed home from work today) but I'm watching the big-ass storm coming our way on radar.

Waukegan and the area south of it are getting nailed. We're gonna get ours, but it's gonna be a lot less....

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I don't think Roe will be overturned. I can't see the justification at this point. It depends on a dubious interpretation of the Constitution-- that much is true, and so the Rust brief wasn't too far off the mark-- but it's been such a part of the Court's jurisprudence that it's practically cemented now.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I'm less confident. Although if Roe is overruled, liberals will be more galvanized than in a long time.

Yeah, which is why many conservatives are wary....
Not the far-right Christians, though.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
I see ominous black clouds to the north. Ooohhhh.... Spooky.

If I only had a brain...
Far-right Christians don't like Griswold v. Connecticut one little bit. That's the one that created/recognized "the penumbra of privacy". It made *contraception* legal.
I don't think Scalia does, either.

Southern Illinois is a little scary to me....
Growing up on the dividing line between "Southern" Illinois and Chicagoland was an interesting experience. My parents made it a point to take us into the city at least a few times a year, and raised us to be interested in the political shenanigans of Council Wars, etc., in stark contrast to how they were raised on the farms that typify "Downstate." OTOH, many of our friends and classmates were raised to view the city with suspicion and to avoid it at all costs.
