Brendan Hurley, of The Colbert Report: Coolest Prop Master Ever!

Hey, I know this guy!

My friend (and one of the hardest-working people I know) just got this awesome write-up in Martha Stewart Living!

He's a wonderful, incredibly talented guy, and I'm so happy he's gotten this great recognition for all the excellent work he does.

Go, Brendan!

Politico has a great, quick write-up of the five biggest misconceptions about the individual mandate. 

Most importantly, it only affects 1% of people in Massachussetts, and the most they can penalize you is $700 or 2% of your income which, while no small amount of money, is not a huge tax increase, and is actually less than how much the GOP would raise taxes on the middle class if they were to pass the Ryan budget. Just saying!

Stand with Obama on Healthcare

PS. If you'd like to show your support for the President and the Affordable Care Act, you can sign a protition (positive petition!) at ThinkProgress to send to your congress person.

Looks like a super cute, Fern Gully-esque (though maybe lighter on the environmental angle and heavier on the fantasy angle) adventure into tiny creatures and their tiny battles!



Could be really fun!
