I’m going to wade into a debate here that anyone with more common sense than I have would avoid like the plague. Well, sort of.

Meltdown & Revival
May 28th, 2010 · No Comments
I was going to call this post, “California Dreamin’” because what finally broke through my “not writing on Unspun™” barrier has to do with California’s pension “crisis,” which is really just one more aspect of California’s generalized budgetary crisis. But given what’s going on around the rest of the country, “Meltdown” seemed the more appropriate […]

Why Are Upgrades So Frustrating?
August 15th, 2008 · 1 Comment
Anyone who has been poking around here the last couple of weeks — and according to the WordPress.com Stats module that came with this blog, that seems to be probably around a few hundred people — has noticed I’ve been busily upgrading the site software. For many years, Unspun™ relied upon MovableType™. Unfortunately, Unspun™ gets […]

Resurrecting Unspun™
August 2nd, 2008 · 1 Comment
I’ve been slowly — painfully slowly, in fact — trying to deal with whether or not to resurrect Unspun™ and I’ve decided that it won’t hurt to post something now and then. In keeping with a promise I’ve made to myself two days ago, though, my posts will not necessarily be as long or as […]

As any of you who have been here before probably can see, Unspun™ is undergoing a transformation. I’m changing from MovableType™ to WordPress™. Until then, of course, the usual beautiful images, links, etc., aren’t here. It may take weeks, since my law practice sometimes interferes with my ability to spend time on the blogging stuff, […]

Well, in some ways — not many that actually affect me and my blogging experience, but in ways that apparently made things better for other bloggers — the last upgrade of MovableType contained some improvements. MovableType, of course, is the software that powers this blog. Unfortunately, the Powers That Be over at MovableType thought that […]

Whither Unspun™? Who Cares?
August 26th, 2005 · No Comments
In case anyone has wondered why this blog hasn’t seen any activity lately, it’s really a couple of things. I’ve said, “To hell with the rest of you” and I’ve decided to become a Republican. From now on, I will only look out for myself. I will make a lot of money (I’m told that […]

Five Hours Lost
July 26th, 2005 · 5 Comments
Oh the joys of blogging. I just spent five hours — couldn’t sleep last night — writing a blog article on the Constitution. I tried to create a screenshot of an email I had received that was going to be the finishing piece of my post. Outlook 2003 appeared to be locked up. So I […]

The First Amendment of the Constitution is perhaps only second (no pun intended) to the Fourth, Fifth and Sixth Amendments in terms of the way it’s being trampled by local, state and federal government in the United States these days. The First Amendment is different, however, in that it has a greater potential to affect […]
