For once, I get to be the family food blogger- I made dinner last night. (Krissa sat on the couch and/or played sous chef from time to time.)
Salmon cakes and corn salsa from the Foster’s Market Cookbook; pumpkin and sweet potato soup from the New World Kitchen.
Was just great to out of the house, go [...]
From Donald Trump, via my junk mail today:
Please be my personal guest to hear my real story… and also be trained by “4″ self-made multi-millionare experts.
Yes. He puts quotes around “4″. (He also puts quotes around “0″ later, though relatively speaking that use almost makes sense.) Kudos to Mr. Trump for a new low in [...]
I have been waiting to catch St. John in the snow for a while, and got my chance today. Sadly, it is not as photogenic as I’d imagined, so I’ll spare everyone the grey building with grey sky interrupted only by white flakes. Instead, some city color with a touch of snow, from a jaunt [...]
Yargh. For the second time this semester, an excellent, young, FLOSS/CC-involved coder-legal dude is coming to speak at an area law school, and for the second time, I have a conflict I can’t resolve and can’t go. This time it is James Grimmelmann, newly named an associate prof at NYLS, who will participate in a [...]
Easy, easy totally delicious snack: wheat thins, small chunk of cheese, dab of the plum chutney from Beth’s Farm Kitchen. Hint for classmates: you should be able to find Beth’s selling their delicious wares at the Broadway and 114th farmer’s market on Thursday and Saturdays. Everyone else: the magics of the intarwebs can get this [...]

William Patry (maybe the most learned copyright lawyer on the planet, author [...]
Mouse art. Heh. (From the very cool eyebeam.)
My old boss, Jonathan Zittrain (the only person I know with a two-letter domain: jz.org) spoke today at Columbia. So I’m live-blogging-ish the talk.
starts off with the hourglass diagram- everything going through Internet Protocol- don’t need to know a whole lot about the top if you’re good at the bottom, or vice-versa: any task on [...]
Got to fulfill one of my New York TODOs today by going to the daily show. Not only did we get to watch a double-length interview with John Ashcroft, we got to see a taping of what I presume will be next week’s This Week In God. Multiple doses of awesome. Jon was in good [...]
Class was good, details between classes better:
I am going to see Daily Show taped on Wednesday. Found out today the guest will be:
That’s right, John Ashcroft. Should be fun, unless they prohibit us from hissing.
Also, in class, Prof. Dorf offhandly and without my prompting made my favorite analogy: that our legal code is a lot [...]
