Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Article on the women's gymnastics last night: [link]

The American girls came out onto the floor in shiny red leotards that made them look like Las Vegas showgirls. On average 30 pounds heavier and 3.5 inches taller than the doll-sized Chinese gymnasts, they had the sheen of aging starlets, imbuing the scene with a peculiar Sunset Boulevard feel.

The hell?

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

ACLU cries foul as city nets arrests with 24-hour curfew

Yeah. He's allowed by law to declare curfew for 48 hours. So he's just doing it over and over and over....

"Now if somebody wants to sue us, they have an option to sue, but I'm fairly certain that a judge will see it the way the way the citizens see it here," Mayor James Valley said. "The citizens deserve peace, that some infringement on constitutional rights is OK and we have not violated anything as far as the Constitution."

...

Valley's curfew will remain in place for all minors, but adults will be allowed out if they can answer questions about their need to be outside their homes.

"The Peace of the Gun."

A 24 hour curfew?? Yeah, I'd say that's pretty fucking RIDICULOUS. (Also, at what point is that NOT martial law, really?)

Did you read my bat pirate song? It actually made my workday less irritating for five minutes.

I did! I want someone like Fay sing it and record it for us, so we can listen to it whenever we want.

Those lucky folks seem to have elected a mayor who is an expert in Constitutional law! "Some infrigement on Constitutional rights is OK!"
