I'm assuming the author is English, not American, and therefore less likely to be in danger of losing some of her reproductive rights, but still....
This confuses me. What reproductive rights are you referring to?

Ann, that's a ferret.
My MIL got a scale as a present from her husband when she was pregnant, because he thought she was letting herself go
A scale? By itself, not exactly a bad idea. I understand that doctors do pay attention to how much weight a woman gains during pregnancy. So having an accurate scale makes sense.
But "letting herself go"? I can see several possible reactions, none of them likely to increase anyone's happiness. Which range from husband getting hit on the head with said scale to wife developing eating disorders to keep hubby happy.

This reminds me, y'all must try Absolut New Orleans. It's mango pepper and is excellent just chilled by itself.

Not the person you asked, but I think she meant the reproductive health of American women.

President A. is smart. He might be a lot of other things, but I can't argue with his bush-assessment.

And he told me, quote, speaking to you, that you've made terrible choices for your people. You've isolated your nation. You've taken a nation of proud and honorable people and made your country the pariah of the world.
Oh hai, don't think you're talking about IRAN there, President Sparky.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I enjoy the infused vodkas. Ginger, cucumber, mango, pear (Absolut Pear is Teh Num) - all are good.

I had a horseradish vodka at this Russian place here and it was AMAZING! Spicy and earthy and delicious just served chilled in a shot glass. That was a sippin' vodka.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
PELLEY: I take it you can't think of anything you like about President Bush.
Is it just me, or is anyone else waiting for the next question to be "George Bush: Great President, or the GREATEST President?"

Hah! I am NOW!!
Grr. I sent an email to my apartment building listserv--did anyone want a bookshelf? One is 6'6, one is 6'.
A guy writes back, says yes. I respond, telling him when I'm free. He says "OH, you meant bookSHELVES...I thought they were bookENDS. I don't need bookshelves"
WTF? Six foot bookends??
