Last Night, Barack Obama Became President →
by Chuck Pierce in Esquire
my favorite part so far (besides the opening paragraph)…
“…Last night, though, he had to know. You don’t do what he did unless you know — calling out not only the political opposition for its opportunistic nihilism, and not only the United States Senate for its structural inertia and for the remarkable number of venal gobshites among its...
From the oral argument transcript in Briscoe v....
MR. FRIEDMAN: I think that issue is entirely orthogonal to the issue here because the Commonwealth is acknowledging -
CHIEF JUSTICE ROBERTS: I’m sorry. Entirely what?
MR. FRIEDMAN: Orthogonal. Right angle. Unrelated. Irrelevant.
CHIEF JUSTICE ROBERTS: Oh.
JUSTICE SCALIA: What was that adjective? I liked that.
MR. FRIEDMAN: Orthogonal.
CHIEF JUSTICE ROBERTS: Orthogonal.
MR. FRIEDMAN: Right, right.
JUSTICE SCALIA: Orthogonal, ooh.
(Laughter.)
JUSTICE KENNEDY: I knew this case presented us a problem.
(Laughter.)
MR. FRIEDMAN: I should have — I probably should have said -

Robyn: at least for me it does. i need more pregnant women friends

Robyn: haha! wow...and how did that go? that's an intense talk
me: it went ok. he, ideally, doesn't want to get married until he's out of law school so he wouldn't be ready for that stuff for another THREE YEARS. i told him that i'm getting old. and he laughed at me. that's pretty much the extent of it...he made fun of my "ticking" clock
Robyn: hahaha! you aren't getting old!
me: i told him that if he strung me along for 3+ years and then broke up with me, that i'd be ruined b/c no one would want a hag

me: i bought wrinkle cream
