| Introduction | I have a 9-to-5 gig practicing law. While I do not "hate" the law by any means, it does nothing to inflame my passions. This blog is about the things that do. You'll find lots of stuff on books, music, movies, politics, religion, philosophy, and general amorality. You will find little to nothing on sports, gardening, antiques, the joys of family life, the stock market, weddings, or Mexican food. If you think I'm full of shit on something, please comment and tell me why. You don't have to bother being nice. I love a good fight. |
