msbelle, there's a decent market for them on eBay, I recall.
You two carried me through that war. Now I need you to carry me just a little bit further. If you can.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Not totally sure about cool neighborhoods -- I haven't explored enough yet to answer that. As for how cold it gets, we've had a few inches of snow this winter. Today it's freezing, but there haven't been many days that got this cold -- looks like the rest of this week has predictions from about 26 to 42 degrees, which seems like what it's been for most of the winter.

Wow, looks like Scalia has died.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Whoa.

I'll probably rot in hell, for my first thought being that Cheney must have shot him in the face, since Scalia was at on a hunting retreat at the time of his death.

I'm a horrible person, because OMG Obama can nominate Scalia's successor. This will change EVERYTHING.

We said the same thing here, Nora! Those Texas hunting trips are dangerous.
Wishes for peace and comfort for his family, with a side of popping champagne corks for the health of the Supreme Court. Can't say his influence will be missed.

The question is Consuela, how much hell will Obama have to go through to get his choice approved? Sigh.

Yeah, apparently Congress can just refuse to even consider an appointment. However if they do, Obama can make an interim appointment without Congressional consent, which is good for 2 years or until the next President comes in.
Only the Senate has to approve a SCOTUS appointment, so this fall's election just got more important. If the Democrats can tilt the balance in the Senate, we can get another progressive on the bench. But we'd need a filibuster-proof majority.
