"I've only ridden the Hulk twice so far," I said. Senator Ron Johnson of Wisconsin took a sip of his beer, looked at me and said, "That's because you're a pussy." Weird, right? That's the end.

A Maryland family replaced their grass lawn with a native plant garden. Their HOA demanded they destroy it and replant the grass. They refused. Their battle has led to the passage of a new law that forbids HOAs in the state from requiring grass.

It was 2013. The Koch Brothers rented out Universal Studios in Orlando for conservative activists during a conference. I was there covering it. Ron Johnson LOVED the Hulk ride. Rode it over and over and over again. See, there is having the time of his life.
