The Internet has been flooded — nearly every blogger I visited last week, as well as all the mainstream media — by The Great Tsunami. Consequently, I haven’t felt a need to comment upon it; I didn’t feel I had anything to add that couldn’t be said in comments on other blogs. The more I’ve […]

So far, I’m totally swamped with this blankety-blank criminal appeal that I’m really sick-to-death of working on. I’d like to move on to some other topics.
