I while back, Laura posted a recipe for barbecued hummingbirds. It looked like it would be a pretty good meal.

The book in working on now includes the following footnote, which I swear I’m not making up:
“There is a joke about a deranged mathematician who frightened other inmates at an insane asylum by screaming at them, ‘I’m going to differentiate you!’ But one inmate remained calm and simply responded, ‘I don’t care. I’m e^x.”
You see, mathematicians, this is why no one invites you to parties.
Also, totally unrelated, the WordPress toolbar has a rainbow flag at the top. What a load of horse crap.

I didn’t really expect the Supreme Court to reject federal subsidies of people not participating in state exchanges, but I certainly didn’t expect them to uphold the subsidies the way they did. Redefining the word “state” to mean “whatever will make the law work regardless of the definitions that were put into the law” has completely undermined my confidence in the ability of the Supreme Court to adhere to the balance of powers and letter of the law.
Not only did we lose the case, we lost the American justice system.
