First of all, I found this guy entirely humorous: Sam Garrett, an 18-year-old student at George Washington University student, left, holds a sign outside the Supreme Court Wednesday. (Daily Record/Sunday News -- Paul Kuehnel) But, over at the American Legion's Burn Pit, Mothax writes of his visit to the circus that was the Supreme Court hearing Phelps vs. Snyder. ...Mind you, I think the rank and files minions out there with the signs have bought into this thing lock, stock and barrel, but I would be hard pressed to see where what they are doing makes any rational sense outside of some pecuniary hope. I discussed this theory with my wife this morning who agreed with my friend: “yeah, it’s all money-making hokum.” Which marks the first time I have heard “hokum” used outside of the Big Bang Theory. So, what did I take away from this experience? Well, a lot actually. I got to see my friends, to meet some interesting people, see a man in poorly conceived attire that is probably suffering hypothermia today [b5 edit note: see photo above], and to hear our supreme legal authority as they discussed a case of such import to what I do at work... Go check it out.
