Health Care: the individual mandate survives as a tax.
Hey, preaching to the choir. I thought our Lady of the Perpetual Sea Breeze was the real deal until the Divine Miss J walked right through that door and right into my ass—which is where my heart is…physiologically. I could show you an x-ray.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Both Deb's birthday and Nic's (and also my Aunt Pauly's, but nobody here knows her. I don't think. If she's lurking, happy birthday, Aunt Pauly!).
Matilda quote just for Scrappy:
As she was struggling with her footie pajamas a few minutes ago she paused to ponder the foot that was causing most of the trouble, and then said, "I was thinking. If I made a little birdhouse in my soul, I would probably get a splinter."

Thanks for birthday wishes!

We're all three born on June 28th.

Happy Birthday, Hec.
I heard that the mandate was upheld.
But I'm sure that more indepth reports will be coming out throughout the day.
