Some quotes about nothing

Me, I was never a “Seinfeld” fan, that show about nothing, but maybe these quotes about nothing will help you along life’s weary road.

And in other California news:

That state’s prison system grows even while the rest of the state budget shrinks.

Uh-oh…

Can this be true? Lawyers defending California’s gay marriage ban in the Prop 8 case say that if you’re not procreating, you shouldn’t be married?

This makes me very, very sad. If this becomes the law of the land, I am going to miss Mr. DJ more than I can say.

The PC died this week?

Nuts. Nobody told me…

Sharon sez:

“All I have to do is achieve ‘elderly’ and not be so sedentary.”

Moderately overweight elderly live longer. And now I have my goal. I’m going to cancel my gym membership, pork up like a poisoned puppy, and live for-ever. For-ever, I tell you.

And thanks, Sis. Sharon, for the link.

Is this racist?

“I forgot he was black tonight for an hour,” said Chris Matthews, in reviewing Pres. Obama’s State of the Union speech.

I’d like to say no flies were harmed in the creation of this art

But I’m not entirely sure that’s true. The accompanying email (and yes, I know it’s always good to think on higher things, but…) says:

What to do when you are bored at work ?

        1. Kill a few Flies (see?)

        2. Put them in the sun to dry for one hour.

        3. Once they are dry, pick a pencil and paper…

Bad apple shadow art, just for fun

And thanks, BuzzFeed, for the link.

He’s guilty.

Scott Roeder has been found guilty of murdering Dr. George Tiller (last May, in Tiller’s Wichita church) after a Kansas jury deliberated just 37 minutes.

That’s premeditated, first-degree murder of one of the few doctors who still performed late-term abortions in this country. Roeder faces mandatory life in prison, with the possibility of parole after 25 years. Sentencing is in March.

The trial never became a trial for abortion, which is legal in this country. Testimony focused, instead — and rightly — on the awful act of this sad man.

Pursuit of Harpyness is not amused…

…at this particular essay that includes the gem:

To single women: If it feels icky, then it more than likely isn’t meant to be a business discussion. No one says that married people and single folks can’t be friends. But show some respect for your partner — the one to whom you’re married!

I suppose you could file that under Things I Was Born Knowing, but let’s see why Harpy’s not happy.
