Plan B works to prevent fertilization. That means conception does not happen. That means there is no pregnancy that is aborted by anybody's measure.

So what's going on? Why is the FDA blocking the birth control that can help reduce unintended pregnancies (and, thus, abortions)?

There's quite an interesting new schism happening in "the left" courtesy of Kos and Armando.

Armando gets personal.

Roxanne notices.

Meanwhile....

Kos finds a new patsy.

And thus....

Parker calls bullshit.

What is that aphorism about he who repeatedly finds faults in his friends?

I stumbled across this via Technorati:

I wanted to be a career woman, and the idea that I might someday have a husband who stayed home sounded like a perfect arrangement. Perhaps he would work out of the home, allowing him flexibility to manage the home front while I was out bringing home the bacon. It stills sounds like a good idea to me.

His name was Jason, and I loved him more than I have ever loved anyone. He had long, dark hair, combat boots, earrings. Long, delicate fingers that could draw and fix things. Beautiful eyes that looked straight to my soul. He was younger, less educated, broke, and everything I wanted. When we kissed in his front yard, his father came out and turned on the porch light. I was twenty-seven. He was twenty-two.

If you want a fascinating glimpse into one strong woman's experiences as a cocktail waitress, go here. This is part of the world of which men seem to be oblivious.

Another week gone. School is starting up in many parts. The heat remains, but the days are starting to grow shorter.

And traffic here has eased back. A lot of lurkers silent visitors. So pour yourself a cool beverage, pull up a chair and say hello. This is a weekend to kick back and relax.

And share.
