She actually wrote up lists of why Burr and Jefferson were lame.
for Burr
1. he was an aide-de-camp for Washington for less than a week; fired by Washington for excessive womanizing and sloth.

Our experience with Ford would be more in line with them having a Lemon Switch, and that they definitely flicked it UP when they made my husband’s truck. We traded it in after one year.

The main river that flows through New Braunfels is the Guadelupe. The Comal is a tributary that’s only a couple miles long. It’s so cold because of the springs that feed it.

Floated it a few times. About one drunk per year drowns in NB from not paying attention.

BTW, I will be offline for 10 days. The Prof and I are going to London and Prague tomorrow.

Have fun! I’m hanging a GTT sign this weekend. But my trip won’t be nearly as fun as yours, though it will be adventurous.

He’s so tone deaf to shame he’ll probably use it for his re-election campaign.

I hope the other dems have to strip him (ha ha I said strip) of his committee assignments and force him out. It keeps his name and shame in front of the media a while longer

[SoothingDave]

What, they got no internet in Europe? ;-)

[CholeraJoe]

I'm certain they do. I just don't want to lug my Commodore 386 with the 9600 baud modem around.

[hobbes1]

Oh man I am envious.

Prague, the land of Pork and Beer. If you get a chance before you go, check the Anthony Bourdain Prague episode....Made me wish I could spend Football Season there.

i was in an all day legal writing seminar at a downtown hotel today, 2 floors below the main floor with no cell service. i was dying thinking there would be some breaking weener news that i would be missing out on! i want to pass on some writing tips: it is perfectly FINE to begin a sentence with "And" "But" etc. It is also perfectly fine to end a sentence with a preposition. You should definitely use serial commas [meaning include one before the "and"] and always hyphenate your phrasal adjectives. He's an excellent speaker and he had video footage of many many judges speaking to the points he was making, including the supremes. Bryan A. Garney--LawProse

[SoothingDave]

The best legal style is simple and direct.

Yes, when people think of simple and direct communication, lawyers always spring to mind. LOL

[xsmommy]

Ummm.. That’s the point of these seminars, to teach people to lose the legalese. Judges hate it.
