"Should I vote for this bill which will affect every American?"

Prayer may not be such a bad thing, i.e. meditation...

This offers a tour of the Washington Monument and other DC places without having to go through security! The worst I've experienced was coming home from China, second place: coming home from Texas. So many people tell me not to remark on the similarity of the two, but, unfortunately, I see a clear resemblence. My preference is for Chinese food. Anyway, I'm glad importing tea is not deemed dangerous by the feds yet.

Hahaha, Wexler is begging to not return this book for a bit more than 150 more pages! He seems to be more of an entertainer than an academic. Maybe that is why I found this in the public library.

"Senate Prayer Suspicion" is this chapter's title. Is prayer before an event constitutional? Well, it's no harm to take the time others are praying to, say, meditate.

This new chapter is about the religious display ruckus. Most years I visit the Tree of Knowledge by the West Chester courthouse around Christmastime. Then, my family has an obnoxious inflatable Santa Claus on a polar bear balloon that goes up maybe November and lasts until a few days after the holiday. It's "cute", by which I mean tacky and low class. Dad loves it, though, so it stays. Every year.

Anarchy! I barely knew there were Amish outside Lancaster before reading Wexler.

Wexler does not mask any of his thoughts - including his irrational fear of mice. At least he is honest! Is honesty worth more than rationality?

So Victoria does not have an exotic animal by Pennsylvanian law: her rabbit is not a bear, coyote, lion, tiger, leopard, jaguar, cheetah, cougar or wolf.

I got my mother interested in this. She loves the cover. Also, I may be studying law more seriously next year.
