By now, I think we've all heard of the Supreme Court's genius decision that your property isn't actually yours. I believe their next goal is to rewrite the definition of the words "your," "my," and "ours," so that their decision won't leave them as nothing more than a contradiction to the English language.

Anyways, I'd like to use my time here to tell the story of a hero. This hero's name is Logan Darrow Clements.

The honorable Mr. Clements is the CEO of Freestar Media, LCC, and he has faxed a request to Chip Meany (perhaps in itself the most contradictory name I've ever heard), who is the code enforcement officer of the Towne of Weare, New Hampshire. The esteemed Mr. Clements has requested the use of 34 Cilley Hill Road in order to construct a hotel on it. For those of you who don't know, 34 Cilley Hill Road is currently owned by one Supreme Court Justice David H. Souter.

I, for one, hope that the heroic Mr. Clements succeeds in his endeavor, which, I'd like to point out, is one that Justice Souter would himself approve of. I'm sure that Justice Souter would agree that a hotel would bring much more revenue to the area than his house (however nice it may be), and I fully expect Justice Souter to martyrize himself for his cause.

The proposed "Lost Liberty Hotel" will feature a "Just Desserts" cafe, a museum documenting the loss of freedom in America, and will distribute free copies of Ayn Rand's "Atlas Shrugged" as opposed to the Gideon Bible. I, for one, hope to stay at the hotel in the future.

Ah!  Had not made it to the front page yet!  Mine may have a better title, but your sarcastic wit is much better!

Ah!  There is room in all blogs for Poetic Justice!

Thank you, I sharpen it daily, often at one of your conservative compatriots' expense.
