Following up on last August’s arrest
I spoke to my neighbor who was arrested last August when a neighbor called the police because his dog was barking. He's still not completely out of the woods, but his lawyer made a motion last month to have the evidence thrown out on the basis that the breakin was improper, and the judge granted [...]
More fallout from the Coakley campaign
I had dinner with my friend from the suburbs. She was mad at Coakley for two major items: She was in Mexico for some of the campaign, and the robocalls ended up costing her $50. Coakley is apparently still convinced that the Fells Acre Day Care prosecution was justified.
How the Burns party went
I'm just now getting to hear the recordings from the concert on January 30, so I'll write about that later. Yesterday's Burns birthday party was quite pleasant. My sister, the hostess, read an article from the Manchester Guardian pointing out that the custom started within a few years of Burns' death, when there were still [...]

I thought over what poetry [...]

It's called Hands over the City.It's about urban development politics, which I expected to be interested in, but in this case I just wasn't. I tried twice, and I just couldn't get interested in any of the characters enough to even recognize [...]
Crutches
I got a phone call at 8 AM Friday morning. I was nervous when I realized who it was -- it was the partner of one of the people I was playing the concert with yesterday. The last time I got a call from someone like that the day before the concert, it was the [...]

Amazon and Macmillan
So far, the best comment I've read on the current war between Amazon and Macmillan, which has caused a lot of books people would be buying and reading to disappear from the Amazon shelves, is this one by Cory Doctorow on Boing Boing. He points out how ridiculous both sides look -- both Amazon masquerading [...]
