We are so awesome!
I don't give half a hump if you're innocent or not. So where does that put you?

According to the article, it's a state law, so the Supremes won't get involved. I think this was the highest judicial level.
Nope. It's a state law but this case was in Federal District court since the plaintiffs were challenging the law as violating the 14th Amendment of the US Constitution.
It will eventually end up with the Supremes. Though they could always choose not to hear it.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I am so giddy happy. Yes, I know there will be appeals and all that, but for the moment logic prevails!!!!
I'm not sure there will be. According to the article, it's a state law, so the Supremes won't get involved. I think this was the highest judicial level.
It's a federal case alleging the law violates federal rights, so it will be appealed to the Ninth Cir/US Supreme. There was an earlier state case that failed.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Liese, you're awesome for even offering to do that.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Please, someone tell me why I have a crush on Zac Efron. Summerland? Firefly? Seriously? I've never even seen him on the big screen.

Subliminal marketing from those Charlie St. Cloud ads. That's the only thing I can come up with.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
That's really generous of you, Liese.
Man, the funeral stuff is annoying. We have a very large family. The two caravans are down in SD with my parents. Not all of us own cars. Getting from LA to SD is either $ or favors. I thought I had a ride with one of the more pleasant of my brothers but I just got bumped. Now I've got to scramble for another way down. Honestly, I'd rather just send a proxy at this point.
