I slept quite a bit yesterday and feel more refreshed today. It’s hectic. because I overslept and because of the doings at SCOTUS. I’m current with replies. Tomorrow I have errands to run.
Jig Zone Puzzle:
Todays took me 3:35 (average 4:22). To do it, click here. How did you do?
Short Takes:
From MoveOn: Hillary Clinton On What Gay People Are
Republicans would rather pander to haters than admit that.
From NY Times: For members of Congress, health care lobbyists, campaign officials and thousands of lawyers (and the thousands more who have just taken the LSATs) who populate the squat office buildings across the district, the wait for the fate of the health care law has become all consuming.
The decision will come on Thursday.
From YouTube: How to Handle Trolls
Do not feed the trolls!

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
MoveOn — Well said Mrs Clinton. There is only one possible thing missing depending on how you interpret her first line —LGBT people are born that way. Being gay is not a learned behaviour as the ex-gay advocates would have us believe.
Obamacare — 3 more sleeps until the decision is made known.
Trolls — Good little video. Do not feed the trolls! — Sometimes it is easier said than done!
Cartoon — Thanks for he opportunity to read about Custer's Last Stand. It seems that the battle was 'a confrontation between relentless U.S. westward expansion and Native Americans defending their traditional lands and way of life." Manifest Destiny manages to make it into so many places.
Amen!
Amen again!
I hear you.
It reflects some of the greatest injustice in US history.
3:32 Just beat you. Let's see how Jerry does today.
Excellent, Secretary Clinton!
SCROTUS' decision on Health Care in 3 more days. Hmmm…
After watching the Troll video, I've come to the conclusion that most RepublicanTs in politics are trolls.
Booooo! 😉
Amen to the rest!
3:58 This one's yours, Patty. I'm #3.
I have a question: How come when I put several paragraphs in blockquotes it looks fine, even when I re-visit the site later in the day?
But as soon as TomCat makes a Reply, the previous blockquote, all nicely formatted in separate paragraphs, is now all smooshed and scrunched together in one giant run-on that's virtually impossible to read.
I figured that out yesterday, Nameless. It's not my reply. I edit behind you to blank the target on links. It appars that the new editor informants when I do so. Can you remember to post links with a blank target?
