Today I’m putting a new twist on an old post. I originally wrote this post in March of 2008 and it’s worth revisiting.
For starters, I’m tired and my heart just isn’t into generating new content.
Last week, I got involved in a back and forth with one of my favorite Courant columnists, Rick Green.

I like to follow rules because doing so usually makes life easier.
I especially like to follow rules that impact my livelyhood.
Every quarter, I have to register this blog with the grievance committee. I’m not happy about it but I don’t have the time or the desire to make an issue of it. Registering this blog [...]
I like writing about law. Really, I do.
The last thing I need is for this blog to jeopardy. Law is what I do for a living because it puts food in my dog’s bowl. I love practicing law. Aside from pitching for the Red Sox, I can’t think of anything I’d rather be doing for [...]
