A Major Milestone

December 22, 2009

I finished regular law school classes. I took my last final exam last week. All that stands between me and graduation in mid-January is a long paper and one week class. I am working on the paper now and hope to have it substantially complete shortly after New Years Day. So what am I going [...]

Life on Hiatus

November 22, 2009

The last 48 hours of my life as been spent in a futile quest to save fish. I am pretending to be an environmental attorney, about to sue California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger for (this is not true) alleging that the Coho Salmon population in the Klamath River is sufficiently large and not biologically distinct enough, [...]

Pardon Me While I Unload My Baggage

November 3, 2009

I have a few blocks I’d like to unload. I have writer’s block. I’m supposed to write a graduate paper as a graduation requirement. My advisor and I have different ideas about the writing style so instead of dealing with it I’ve just procrastinated. I have the flu. That is a block to life. I [...]

October 14, 2009

I remember when I was a boy skiing at Brianhead resort near Parowan, Utah. Back then [...]

The Saga of the Fireplace, Part 5 (Epilogue)

October 14, 2009

After worrying about the fiberglass insulation for a few days, I decided to pull the insert back out and remove it. I bought a large piece of insulation from the fireplace dealer they said was rated to 1500 degrees. I placed this insulation tight against the back side of the damper frame and snug up [...]

Not Normal Mormon Husband

September 29, 2009

Welcome Normal Mormon Husband Blog Readers! I just found out that the Normal Mormon Husband is no longer blogging. Bummer. I enjoyed his posts. Now, if only I could get some of his traffic! [evil laughter] He said his blog got popular after writing a primer for a popular fiction series, Twilight. Hmm. Unfortunately, I [...]

P.S. no more train

September 25, 2009

Ā  Yesterday I cancelled my transit account and jacked up my parking account contribution. On Thursday I drove to work, and felt a smug sense of victory as I passed the exit to the train park and ride lot. I cranked a little Damn Yankees, “Don’t Tread On Me” as I happily blew some exhaust [...]
