Did you catch the name of the judge who refuted Bloomberg’s soda ban?

Milton Tingling.

the two funniest twitter stream items yesterday were ASKMOOCHELLE and the NYCmayor’s ofc tweet that they were going to appeal the overturning of the sugary soda ban and were sure it would be upheld.

It is astounding how many teacher/student affairs are going on - seems like we see one highlighted on tv at least once a week in the Houston area. It is usually sad looking white women and one, or more, teen age boys.....

There was another teacher in the suburbs trying to have a gay relationship with a student.

The newspaper just ran one story with the two incidents together.

I heard on the news that a pickup truck pulled up at a drilling site in PA, a window rolled down and a shotgun came out to blast some shots off amid some obscene yelling. Didn’t know there were libs in PA that owned a shotgun. I think libs are closet gun owners. Like Gabby Gifford’s louse...er spouse.

my fav dem driver who turned on Romney and voted 0, yelled the other night that he was NOT ever voting Dem again. Seems he isn’t happy with Cuomo’s plan to wait 2 more years to decide on drilling.

Probably not libs, probably just keeping someone awake or muddying up their cars
