Reason to be cheerful:
US allows use of embryonic stem cellsAlso: the global gag rule is gone (damn straight!), and he signed it the day *after* all the anti-choice protests in DC. Strategic.
How dare the world party instead of donning sackcloth and pitching in to help those plucky telegenic crips?
Roflnui! (Or would laughing at that count as a 'toxic emotion'? I am concerned.)

Super classy, Rich
Wait. Rich, in fine form, tells a super-annoying MRA to bugger off, and you're attacking *him*?

Magic! So you're iphoning it in? That's devotion. Post of the week, I'd say. Can Russell hop on his bike and bring you a nice cold one?
That really *would* be post of the week! No, I'm afraid I was just getting all Nostradamus about my coming commute. It isn't that hard to predict the 'sitting hotly on Great North Road' part - that happens far too much as it is, even without the high speed chase and fatal shooting.

I know the ways in which the media bludgeon us with the 'how much this matters' schtick can be silly. I admit that. But jeez, Craig, did you see that segment interviewing Medgar Evers' widow? Every time I see something like that I return to my original 'the president is black!' amazement level.
if this doesn't melt your heart you don't have one ...
Sap report: I have cried every. single. time. I've watched that clip. In fact, merely pondering watching it again is making me verklempt. It's pavlovian. :)

the peaceful, orderly transfer of power which has been going on in the United States for over two and a quarter centuries.
That bloodiest-of-all-American-conflicts Civil War they had sure was peaceful and orderly, too!

You can't approximate them with (freshwater) koura?
I have pondered that. But who sells them? Is there even an industry, or is it just ad hoc harvesting? DOC says you aren't allowed to buy them, just gather for personal use...
