Today I took my tired Sunday ass to a Ray Bradbury play called The Wonderful Ice Cream Suit, at the Fremont Center Theatre. Two things I loved about it:

Are people fucking serious with this? Apparently a couple of teen girls in Pennsylvania sent a couple of teen boys naked pictures of themselves - and are being charged with CHILD PORN. Which means YEARS IN PRISON.
