Outlaws busted. 42 members of the Outlaws motorcycle gang were arrested over the past few days in Indianapolis. This is a gang that kills people, deals drugs,and has a hand in various scams. But they've been my neighbors for ten years and always been good neighbors; I personally never had any problems with them.

I was supposed to be camping in the smokies the last few days, but my driver didn't show up.

For the past week I've been seeing these ads that say comprehensive STD testing $90 (which is a pretty good deal) but when you click to the site it says the test is $239 (which isn't a good deal, but more importantly raises issues about their honesty or competence, something you want in an STD testing company.) http://getSTDtested.com. I fired off a nastygram, asking that the ads be fixed or pulled, and now "betty" assures me that the company will honor the $90 price. I still don't see any way to enter it that way on the order form, so I am still a bit skeptical, but it's a hint of progress. I hope to update this entry with more developments. I have a pet peeve about false ads, and this one had turned up on every webcomic I've been reading this week.
here's the new ad without the pricing
here's the ad i found objectionable

In the landmark health care decision last Thursday, a Supreme
Court justice broke with that justice's political roots, snubbed the
justice's ideological fellow travelers on the court and confounded
critics who had predicted the opposite outcome.
I refer, of course, to Justice Elena Kagan.
that's the best health care decision joke i've seen today.

Ut res magis valeat quam pereat. That the thing may rather have effect than
be destroyed.
gradually working my way through the health care decision; had to look this one up.
