		 Okay, I'll assume that your tongue is firmly planted in your cheek.

		 To the extent that the ruling relied on design patents that should never have been issued in the first place it is a terrible thing.

		 It is not.  I think it sets an awful precedent.  Perhaps, with the patents in place, there wasn't much choice, legally, in the ruling.  But it's a depressing result and those patents should never have existed.  This ruling makes it impossible for anyone to design a phone with a large screen with a thin bezel, essentially giving Apple a monopoly on the smart phone market.  And provides a blueprint for any other company to due the same with other products.

		 I rarely watch any of the conventions or speeches.  But I ended up watching Obama's entire speech tonight. 
		
	
		
		
		
		
			Sealed the victory, which he was already on his way toward. Nothing substantively mind blowing in the speech, but "rousing" is the word I'd use. I just can't see at this point the conservatives having enough enthusiasm to bring people out to vote for Romney. As evidence, I've only seen one Romney bumper sticker in OC, compared to the absolute blanket coverage of McCain stickers 4 years ago.

 *Durbin gave a stump speech for Russ Feingold here a couple of years ago. The "crowd" wasn't more than 20 people. Durbin locked eyes with me the entire time. Hubbo kept elbowing me in the ribs but I didn't move. Durbin and I had a moment, people.

		 A friend posted something on facebook like if you want us to stay out of your bedroom then pay for your own birth control and abortions.  I'm going to assume the out of your bedroom is a gay reference and last I checked having gay sex requires no birth control nor would result in a pregnancy needing an abortion correct?

		 I know I've never been pregnant and I'm pretty certain I've never gotten a guy knocked up.
