That’s the slogan on the mousepad Sister Mary Martha sells for $15 on the blog “Ask Sister Mary Martha,” a sort of tough-love Dear Abby. (And, quite possibly, the only nun in Marina del Ray.)
If you’re not in the market for a mousepad with the face of a Roman Catholic nun on it (whatever it says) I think you will nevertheless like the blog as much as I do. Just don’t expect any sympathy. SMM is tougher than some rabbis I know.

We need a thorough housecleaning in Congress in November. And term limits.
“Watching the Commander of the Pacific Fleet’s deadpan face as Congressman Hank Johnson (D., Ga.) asks him about the danger of the island of Guam tipping over and capsizing is a glimpse of how the viziers to the loopier Ottoman sultans must have felt.”
See Johnson in action. Mark Steyn via Instapundit.

Not Mr. B.’s teacher, I do assure you. Nor one of mine from the Dark Ages, alas. It would have been sweeter than what I actually got.
I like the Obama Meditating one, the best. But all of them are pretty cool.

“On this day in 1883, many Texas cowboys went on strike against their
bosses, absentee ranchers. The cowboys’ grievances, however, were
against developments that proved permanent. As closed-range ranching
wiped out the previous open-range industry, some of the cowboys’ traditional perks were denied them. No longer could they brand mavericks, keep small herds of their own, or receive part of their pay in calves. The strike mustered some 300 cowboys at its peak strength, but after 2 1/2 months the work stoppage was so weakened that the May roundup occurred without incident. The last press mention of the strike was in the Dodge City Times for May 10, 1883.”
