Hockey Players With Pets.
While there were a lot of adorable pics that made me smile and say ahhh. Ummm, Henrik Lundqvist in an all black suit with his doberman Nova sitting on a couch giving that sultry look into the camera made me drool on my keyboard! YUMMY!

The Quiet Rise in DIY Abortions.
I am occasionally appointed to represent girls under the age of 18 who are asking a court to grant them permission to have an abortion without parental notification. The courage these girls show to go into a judge's chambers with attorneys and discuss their situation always impresses me. Knowing that the judge has always said no - sickens me.

Look for the Helpers.
@4 I have tears in my eyes but thank you - I did need to see all that today and be reminded of all the good people in the world.

Friendly Reminder: Don't Smoke Pot in Dumb Public Places (Like on Federal Property).
@12 They are usually within a few miles of the border - California and Arizona is one. They have a lot of "permanent-temporary" checkpoints as they call them all over. It was very eye-opening moving from Washington to Arizona to see this. Also, BP will pull you over for speeding, etc. and then just call in the regular cops to make an arrest. From Arizona border to San Diego there are two if not three of these checkpoints and it is only a 2 hour drive. Usually all equipped with drug dogs.

Keep in mind if you are traveling to other states and you have a medical marijuana card and go through a border patrol checkpoint the BP officers will still cite you for possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia, etc. even if you have a legal medical marijuana card and the state you are travelling in has medical marijuana laws - they have to cite you because they are feds even though the state recognizes it as legal. But keep your medical marijuana card valid because the prosecutors should just dismiss it once they receive verification or depending on the state you can be charged with crimes because the medical marijuana laws are not exactly the same.

We Couldn't Have Done It Without Them.
Thank you Dan and everyone who helped frame the debate and provide us straight people with such eloquent talking points and reponses to those who were either undecided or were against R-74. I have been so excited and emotional all day. My high point here in Arizona was when my 83 year old snow-bird grandma said rather loudly before her very Republican-conservative cousins "By the way honey, I made sure to vote for R-74 before I left Washington to come down here." So incredibly proud!!!
