Yesterday, I took the kids to a nice shady park. Anyhow we were all pretty hot afterwards because it's freaking hot in the midwest right now and I took'em to Sonic to get some slushes. The woman who brought the slushes remarked that they (the kids) were really cute. My daughter was a little put out by this and I discovered that was because she thought the woman was only talking about Leif. I told her that the remark was meant about both of them and I said they were both cute. Then my daughter replied, "Of course I'm cute. How could I not be cute?" It sort of cracked me up.
Wild monkey love or tender Sarah McLachlan love?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I think if you're a member of a steering committee, it's a little harder to play that.
"Ok, Ok, I'll help steer. Go left. Now leave me alone."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Actually, I've been involved with things where the "steering committee" list was actually just the best "names" we could get to agree to be listed -- they didn't even give money, necessarily.

Yeah, but he did attend meetings. So the right wing argument now will be that he was on the steering committee, and attended many meetings - but he wasn't really involved.

This usually means that someone has posted a quiz response (one of those ones where you c&p a shitload of html into your post). Some of them have a tendency to lock your friends page like that until whoever posted the meme places it behind a cut tag.
Weirdness. The third post down did have a quiz in it, but behind a cut tag. I opened that post (but didn't click on the quiz link or anything), clicked the back button, refreshed, and...meara's post and the one immediately before it are still stuck at the top of the page (but not the one with the quiz). Below that, the friends view is current and normal, even including the sidebar material which had disappeared from the stuck page.

Anyway, the point is, it's not like Bush wasn't going to pick a conservative.

Then my daughter replied, "Of course I'm cute. How could I not be cute?"
I think I'm going to have to start using this line.

How long ago was Roberts a member of the Federalist Society? I know I've participated in things in the past that no longer remotely reflect my views, either because I've changed or the organization has.

What is even happening?
Yeah, except it looks like he never actually joined. It sounds more like they used him as a networking contact, and bestowed a steering committee position title upon him in their directory.
