Rick, that you choose to make something political/regional out of a horrible series of incidents seems to me to make you look thoughtless and mean. But carry on if it lights your fire.

BTW, we are suffering from a heat wave here in Los Angeles, otherwise known as paradise. 84 two days running, but before everyone starts moving here, we will cool it down over the next few days.

Just another impact of DOMA. Thank you Rep. Pelosi Bradford Wells and Anthony John Makk, a bi-national, married gay couple who have lived most of the 19 years of their relationship in San Francisco’s Castro district, today won a two year stay against the threat of deportation, thanks to the personal intervention of their representative, House leader Nancy Pelosi, D-San Francisco. Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., and state Sen. Mark Leno, a Democrat who represents parts of San Francisco, also provided assistance.
Makk is a citizen of Australia married to Wells, a U.S. citizen who suffers from AIDS-related illnesses. Makk is his primary caregiver. Makk was denied consideration for a green card based on his marriage to a citizen by the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act, or DOMA, which bars all federal marital rights and responsibilities to same-sex couples. The law covers not only immigration issues but also hundreds of tax, Social Security and other federal laws

Rick, that you choose to make something political/regional out of a horrible series of incidents... What? You're giving Jay Leno a pass?  - Police have detained a suspect in a huge string of arson attacks. This guy was going around Los Angeles setting dozens of cars on fire. And he was setting the cars on fire the old-fashioned way: without a Lakers championship.
- The car owners whose cars were burned were really upset, except for the people that owned Kias. They were thrilled.
- It turns out the suspect in the arson fires is a German man who is upset about his mother's immigration status. Apparently his mom didn't know you could just walk over from Mexico.

McCain Endorces Romney Let me get this straight: The guy who couldn't beat Obama for the presidency, is endorsing the guy who couldn't beat him in the primaries in '08. Got it!

Au contraire, when my family moved here there were 3 million in the metro, now nearly 16 million. Rose parades tend to bring hordes.
