We're due to get into the upper 90s today, so no thinking, just linking.

A) A reminder that small towns are not all Mayberry RFD - small-town judge spends 4 years trying to frame his lover's husband. Also, county judge dies of cocaine overdose during coke party with fellow judges. They bought their drugs from the county probation officer with the knowledge of the county's chief judge. Moral of the story - small government is not inherently better or worse than big government.

B) There's not much to say: food stamps saved my life and made me a productive, tax-paying citizen.

C) A reminder that, in war, the enemy gets a vote too, or, sometimes you do have to destroy the enemy's army to win.

D) Why did nearly all ancient societies think women were inferior? Answer: back in the day, child-rearing and housekeeping were full-time jobs, and it made sense.

ETA: E) This Armored Lady Won the Longsword Competition.


history lesson, westville, war, politics, link salad, libertarians, 1900 house, food stamps saved my life
