All old guys wearing black are not Johnny Cash.

Boing Boing: Online sexual material is obscene if any community in US objects:
But the Internet can distribute material into all communities in the country, and because the Communications Decency Act is federal, prosecutors can bring their charges in the most sex-o-phobic corner of the country (say, the conservative Catholic private town that the guy who founded Domino's Pizza is building in Florida).
OK with us, says the Supreme Court. Meanwhile a lower federal court upholds Mississippi's banning the sale of sex toys and in South (“The Coathanger State”) Dakota a “Purity Ball” offers the keynote, “Why I Saved My First Kiss For Marriage.”

Apparently we kicked the Taliban out of Afghanistan and they came here.

I like it....South Dakota: The Coathanger State. I'll let my reporter friend at the Sioux Falls Argus Leader know about the state's new motto.

So is it now "In the Taliban, We Trust" for the whole country?
