This weekend I made a Dino-rama (a diorama of Dinosaurs outrunning the Comet that caused their extinction).
There are certain things I would like to do in my life that I know I don’t have to because Emily will do them. This is one of those things.

Interviewer: You’ve long argued for the decriminalization of marijuana. Do you smoke weed?
Barney Frank: No.
Interviewer: Why not?
Barney Frank: Why do you ask a question, then act surprised when I give an answer? Do you think I lie to people?
Interviewer: I thought you might explain why you support decriminalizing it but don’t smoke it.
Barney Frank: Do you think I’ve ever had an abortion?
I grew up with this man as my congressman.

staff:
We work for the Internet. And we’re guessing many of you do too. Whether it’s researching, selling, coding, supporting, designing — so many of our careers depend on the Internet.
