Provisionally Titled: C'est la vie, you never can tell what will motivate me to post

Formerly an NYU Law student's, then a second-year law firm associate's, now just my attempts at coherence. Guaranteed pedantry or your complete lack of money back. C'est la vie, you never can tell what will motivate me to post. Henry Farrell writes about. Unrelatedly, though not surprisingly if you've read this site, I'm a single issue anti-Bloomberg voter for term limit extension reasons. It'd be almost impossible for Thompson to lose my vote or Bloomberg to gain it. Edge of the American West.

Enik Rising: "Sith" > "Jedi"
http://enikrising.blogspot.com/2012/03/sith-jedi.html
Politics, popular culture, pastries. Sunday, March 4, 2012. I must give Kevin Drum. Full marks for bravery. It can't be easy to admit that you think that "Return of the Jedi" is the greatest Star Wars film, especially when it so obviously isn't, and when there are so many blogging dorks out there who rightly understand "Empire" to be the best of them. Absolutely ridiculous, it does, as noted in this epic No Machete Juggling post. What saved them was the Ewoks. The Ewoks were essential to the Rebels' ...

A cafeteria of words aspiring to something else. Friday, April 24, 2009. In Massachusetts, a husband's death shows how important marriage is - and how absolutely ordinary and accepted same-sex marriage has become. Thursday, April 23, 2009. I saw Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. Last night. Not for the first time. An elegantly constructed crime caper with lots of clever word play and men behaving badly. I then pulled out Snatch. And watched it again for the first time in years. Snatch. I am a writer a...

A cafeteria of words aspiring to something else. Saturday, May 23, 2009. Today's awesome amazing fact. I've often wondered why 100 proof was 50% alcohol. The Bourbon FAQ. I have to think there is probably nothing more awesome than taking gunpowder and spirit, mixing it together, and setting it on fire. Sunday, May 17, 2009. Jack in the box. This is old, but I just saw my first Jack in the Box stoner commercial. Apparently this is a series. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Alas, a blog. Lawyers, Guns and Money.

A cafeteria of words aspiring to something else. Sunday, March 29, 2009. I finally saw Casino Royale. For the first time last week. I watched it again last night after watching Quantum of Solace. Which was recently released. I have to say, this is the best Bond yet. Coherent, gripping stories with a good pace, good acting, and satisfying payoffs. This is not the Bond of yore, which was adolescent in world-view and expectations. Dr. No. Of the two new Bond films, Quantum of Solace. Better is that it is a ...

I've Been Reading Lately is what it sounds like. I spend most of my free time reading, and here's where I write about what I've read. Monday, April 27, 2015. Off, off, off with their heads! On the recommendation of the polymath Steve Donoghue. I recently read Jean Plaidy's novel of Mary, Queen of Scots,. Royal Road to Fotheringay. 1955), and its closing scene reminded me of two things:. 1 That the execution of Mary, Queen of Scots was a bizarre event, featuring details no fiction writer would dare invent.

Ivebeenreadinglately: More from Penelope Fitzgerald's Charlotte Mew and Her Friends

I've Been Reading Lately is what it sounds like. I spend most of my free time reading, and here's where I write about what I've read. Tuesday, May 26, 2015. More from Penelope Fitzgerald's Charlotte Mew and Her Friends. It was the great time for small, thin-paper, verse anthologies, with a ribbon for a bookmark, which went easily into the side-pocket, and were taken for long tramps in the fresh air, returning with grass and pressed flowers between the pages. Poems of Love and Earth. One of Fitzgerald's g...
