Now I was gently reprimanded for escalating to the boss I did. Should've talked to the group lead a level below. Well, fine, except I didn't even know what group he was in! Sorry I got your buddy in trouble, but sheeit. He didn't show until 45 minutes after the scheduled start time and that was AFTER moving it an hour later. Not my problem, people.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Huh.

ABC News' Teddy Davis Reports: On Wednesday, a top adviser to John McCain said more definitively than he has in the past that he will step down from the Arizona senator's presidential campaign if the presumed GOP nominee faces Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., in the general election.

"I would simply be uncomfortable being in a campaign that would be inevitably attacking Barack Obama," said McCain adviser Mark McKinnon in an interview with NPR's "All Things Considered." "I think it would be uncomfortable for me, and I think it would be bad for the McCain campaign."

Punishingly Intricate

Woot! Go Texas!

Court overturns Texas ban on sex toys

A federal appeals court has struck down a Texas law that makes it a crime to promote or sell sex toys.

"Whatever one might think or believe about the use of these devices," said an opinion written by Justice Thomas M. Reavley of the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans, "government interference with their personal and private use violates the Constitution."

Under Texas law it is illegal to sell, advertise, give or lend obscene devices, defined as a device used primarily for sexual stimulation. Anyone in possession of six or more sexual devices is considered to be promoting them.

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

That seems likely. Or maybe the guy actually has a soul?

More on Texas:

The state also argued in a brief that Texas has legitimate "morality based" reasons for the laws, which include "discouraging prurient interests in autonomous sex and the pursuit of sexual gratification unrelated to procreation."

I just love the phrase "prurient interests in autonomous sex."

I hope so. Anyway, the two shouldn't be mutually exclusive.
