Work

Man this sucks. Today is my first day back after 2 1/2 weeks off. I HATE getting up this early. Oh well, the Christmas break is coming soon.

Football

USC smacks Notre Dame around and the Raiders beat Denver. Practically a perfect week for football.

Chief Justice Won't Return to the Court This Year

WASHINGTON, Nov. 26 - Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist, who missed the Supreme Court's November argument session while being treated for thyroid cancer, will be absent for the December session as well, the court announced on Friday.
Kathleen Arberg, the court's public information officer, said Chief Justice Rehnquist was continuing to receive chemotherapy and radiation treatments as an outpatient and was meeting with his law clerks and court officials at his home. Ms. Arberg said she had no information on when the 80-year-old chief justice might return to the court.
Given the apparent seriousness of his illness, there has been widespread speculation that the chief justice will announce his retirement sometime this winter. Jan. 7 will mark his 33rd anniversary on the court.


It's clearly time for the Chief Justice to retire. Because Supreme Court justices serve for life, it is their responsibility to step down when their health and age prevents them from working at their full capacity.

I would like to see Justice Thomas elevated to be Chief Justice, and former solicitor general Ted Olsen nominated to replace Justice Thomas.

City of Heroes

Looking for an enjoyable online game to play? This is the one. The servers work well, the game is well thought out, there are constant updates, and the economy works.

If you already play, look me up. I'm usually on the Guardian server playing a superhero named Shoan.

2008 predictions - Presidential race

Sure it's early yet. But I want to get it on the record. I first made this prediction in the Fall of 2004, before President Bush's re-election.

Condi Rice V Hillary Clinton

I can hardly wait.
