Mountains are pretty!

This is a view from one of the overlooks on the Blue Ridge parkway (the area near Mt. Mitchell, I think). I'm sure you're all (like I have so many readers) wondering, "Where all the political posts at?" Well, since the big political story of the moment involves accusations of interest in sex in a public bathroom, and I have an unfortunate connection to Mayor Robo-potty, I'm staying away from all things political at the moment.

Quote of the Day

“Now when it comes time for them to get married, the marriage pulls apart so easily,” he said, trying to unite the grimy strips. “Why? Because they gave the stickiness away.”

From the New York Times article on abstinence education.

Ew. Does he use this schtick with high school kids?! I can just hear the snickering and giggles now.

The fact that he's saying this while illustrating his point with two pieces of tape does not keep the vomit down. If the "stickiness" of your marriage depends on abstinence, you've got pretty weak "stickiness." Ew again. I need a shower.
