I can't believe that there are people in Rochester who think it is OK to fly the confederate flag. First off, unless they are southern transplants, it isn't their heritage and second, you can't swing a cat without hitting something about Frederick Douglass. I was always so proud to have that history, along with Susab B Anthony. Most of the objections are along the lines of How can we create a law because some people's feelings are hurt. Which sort of misses the point.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Is someone talking about banning Confederate flags? I hadn't heard that.
I am not into today. I would vastly prefer to spend it curled up on my couch in front of the fan even though the office has A/C and it's another over a hundred degree forecast. Bah.
The Supremes opinion in the ACA case: 5th Cir affirmed, subsidies available in all states, 6-3. A win for Obamacare!
Yay, SCOTUS.

No! THey are just stupid.
The Chief Justice wrote the opinion. In other news, tomorrow is their end of the year party, where the clerks make fun of the justices via skits. "Too easy," I say.
Phew!!!!!!
Yay SCOTUS! Now I can only hope for a good gay marriage ruling either to kick off Pride weekend or to cap it...
Yay SCOTUS. I think we as a country are getting our heads out of our asses on a few things. But really only a few things.
I had no hate posts or emails after my tweet/fb post re: defending the civil war/the flag/ancestors.
Also it is one day closer to the weekend and I have no plans. Yay!
No! THey are just stupid.
OK, that was my assumption but I figured I'd better check. Because maybe I'm just wrong about which people are being stupid, you know?
Hooray health care!
I just asked for four days off in September, woohoo! Which I plan to spend cleaning and rearranging my furniture (and fasting, one of those days is Yom Kippur), but I am really looking forward to it.
