Walker Wins in Wisconsin.
ugh. how can my home state make me so so very sad? there was such a heroic effort put out by so many people. its sad to see that money has trumped passion and just plain old rightness.

Obama Praises the Woman Labeled a "Slut" by Limbaugh.
@9 for years I dealt with periods that were so painful I couldn't get out of bed for two days. The pain was often so intense I would vomit. After heating pads, advil, etc didn't work I was prescribed codeine. Codeine didn't work either. You know what did? Hormonal birth control. I don't have to take 1 or 2 sick days every month anymore. In fact, I haven't had more than passing discomfort over my period in the 4 years I've been on the pill. It has changed my life in ways completely unrelated to sex.

What Is a Hick?.
Charles, country music evolved from rhythm and blues. You saying that people who live in the city and listen to country is just... so many kinds of dumb.

The Cyclist Who Was Killed in a Car Collision on Saturday Evening.
I've been on both sides of the argument. I live in New York and as a pedestrian have been nearly hit by a car numerous times and actually hit by a car once. It drives me absolutely nuts when drivers just barrel around not paying any attention to people crossing the street or cyclists riding near them. On the other hand, cyclists who don't wear helmets drive me equally nuts. Take some responsibility for your life please. Last weekend I was driving in Brooklyn and some asshole was riding his bike down the middle of a big four lane, two direction road near Coney Island. Not only did he not have a helmet, not only did he ignore the stop light when turning, but he actually looked me in the eye swerved as if to ride into my front bumper, then laughed. Really dude. Not fucking funny.
