What happened to Va Va Get My Broom??!! She's one of my faves.

Well, according to Talking Points Memo, the parties opposed had a good chance of challenging the requirement under the 1993 Religious Freedom Restoration Act, maybe the administration didn't want to take the chance that it would be challenged and shot down? Also, I was surprised to hear that it was unlikely that they…

Yes, I hear that this compromise is modeled on Hawaii's system which allows religious institutions to have BC covered by a 'side benefit'. I'm trying to find out more about how well it works but from what I've read women are covered and don't have to pay for the benefit, which is good. My only hesitation is that I'm…

mmm, that shake didn't look all that homogeneous. More like a diseased looking shake or shake with mottled skin condition.

Who's with me on calling for a congressional investigation of Komen? What percentage of their donations go to screenings and education and what percentage to 'administrative costs'?

pro-digestive tea. the kind that give you shits.

Also, they hook together! You can create a chain of bomb sound for picnics-music or listening to radiolab. More speakers = more great sound with only one audio source.
