I'm more than a little behind on my blog reading, so I've only just discovered that something I wrote was in the running for the South Florida Daily Blog's “SFDB Post Of The Week”. Had I but known, I might have asked readers to stuff the ballot box or something.
But it seems I won.
Oh, wait, the voting is only for “Post of the Month” — so it seems you'll have a chance to do that Miami/Chicago voting thing later.
I've added a new RSS Feed to the right sidebar. I already run these:
For a trial period, I'm adding the feed from:
Just for fun. I think.
One of the great parts of this blogging thing is that smart and funny people send me email or leave comments about the stuff I post. Case in point was the funny, if cruel, remark about Boris Johnson left by “eric” on the post below, How to Complain in British.
“eric” turns out to be Eric Fink, a law professor at startup Elon Law School in North Carolina, and he too has a blog with the cheerful title of Debris. And poking around there, I found a link to this wondrously funny deconstruction of the most prevalent and awful commercial I seen since I acquired satellite TV, the “Snuggies” ad. But it does make me wonder if getting a TV was such a great idea.
Krisol's NYT column, Will Obama Save Liberalism?, finishes with this note,
This is William Kristol’s last column.
I can't say “another national nightmare” just ended, because he's too small beer for that. Maybe “our national stomachache is over”?
I just hope they don't replace him with Karl Rove.

Thank you readers, for your time and attention. There's certainly no justice here, many of the others further down the list, or not even on it, are much finer productions, but I'm not going to make a fuss.
I think (hope) posting will be a little less political in the weeks to come as my outrage muscles sidle down to a comfortable torpor, and allow me to focus on other things. We'll just have to see.
I've turned on the comments again, at least temporarily.
Posting will likely remain light this week, as I have tons of work to do. Which is one reason why I'm not at the AALS meeting in California, like most of the academic legal profession….Which means I still owe Orin Kerr a beer…
