Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

was it just the Philly channel reporting that the Senator was claiming the footplay was due solely to his "'wide stance'" ??

So he is sitting on the toilet like those annoying men on the bus who take up more than one seat speading their legs so wide.

I don't particularly think he did anything illegal until there was actually lewd behavior or money changing hands. However, the guy is a dumbass and his excuses sound like a child's.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

No, it was on the morning radio show here too.

In other sorts of stings, don't people have to actually possess drugs or accept money or do something tangible that's illegal rather than voice an intent?

Depends on what they're being charged with. In the case of sexual activity, the crime is often the intent to commit the act, since actually making the cop do the illegal act requires a level of commitment most cops don't have.

In this case, it was not any of the individual acts (bag in front of the door, tapping foot, playing footsie), it was likely the combonation of these acts that led the police to bust him. It's like buying a gun isn't illegal, having the building plans to your rich husband's office isn't illegal, making phone calls from a pay phone to a career violent criminal isn't illegal, but in the aggregate suggests attempted murder.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I'm kinda salty that Target got the patent, since these are changes that should be implemented in all pharmacies.

Yeah--I don't use Target pharmacies because I've had trouble getting scripts filled there (they don't carry certain medications that are prone to fraudulent scripts, Plan B issues, etc.) Got tired of dealing with them.

*sigh* Owen's wearing a pair of Olivia's swimsuit bottoms around on his head. The question is whether I should take a picture for teenage blackmail later.

There's a question?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

The question is whether I should take a picture for teenage blackmail later.

No, I think the real question is "is the camera charged and within reach"?
