It's my estimation that... every man ever got a statue made of him, was one kind of sumbitch or another.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

We are having one of the first nice, mild sunny days here. And by mild I mean 10C. It's been a cold spring.

Yeah, my coworkers and I ate lunch outside, and it's like 60F. Which I see is about 15C, so still warmer than you! But not that warm.

It's in the mid 80s here, and the trees have been getting freaky all over my car windows. It's going to be a bad spring for people with hay fever; I didn't think I had pollen allergies but even my nose is runny/stuffy from it.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

Nice one, Raylan Givens. (sorry, when I read "federal Marshals", I just stick him in there. I could picture him offering the man the chance to come with him, or be rendered asunder by Boston townspeople, seeing as how, you know, he gets paid either way, and he's very curious about this whole lobster roll thing while on his way out of town...lobster on a sandwich...can you believe it?)/Elmore Leonard likes carrots.

Sorry to poke my head and ignore ongoing conversations like this, but I can't skim over thousands of posts, and I really need to know (it's the first minute I had of being both awake and able to use a computer and having both hands free to type): are all "our" Boston-Buffistas OK? I watch the news and keep worrying (well, about all the victims, of course, but it's always so much harder when it's "close to home").

Thanks, you guys!

So remember that thing when CNN reported that the Supreme Court overturned Obamacare?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

So remember that thing when CNN reported that the Supreme Court overturned Obamacare?

Yeah, CNN is now saying "conflicting reports"

I'll wait for the evening news, I think.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I'll wait for the evening news, I think.

There is still a news conference scheduled for 5.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

So remember that thing when CNN reported that the Supreme Court overturned Obamacare?

Why do they keep forgetting: 24-hour news cycle means you can take an bit more time, be sure you get it right the first time.
