Three!!!

What a year.   This is the annual post, where in the words of Colin McEnroe, I congratulate my blog for staying upright for another year:

For instance, after posting eight times in the whole month, McKeen went dark from a Dec. 23 post congratulating his own blawg for staying upright for two years to a couple of short, interesting posts on Jan. 4 and 6. He squibbed out a Jan. 11 post that consisted of a five-word quote from Ben Franklin.

I launched this blog on Christmas Eve in 2007. This is my 574th post.  In 2010, I wrote 190 posts. This site has been viewed several hundred thousand times by people from all over the world since I first hit post. In so many ways,  this site has grown in ways that have exceeded my wildest expectations when I decided to create it.

Thank you for reading. Thank you for joining me on my journey through Connecticut law. I hope you enjoy this site as much as I do.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

And in case you were wondering, there’s no doubt that Susan Bysiewicz is qualified to run for U.S. Senate in 2012.

I’ve written about lemons before and Attorney Sergei Lemberg writes about them all the time.

If you’re a long time reader then you know my dog Brady. I adopted Brady from the Hartford Pound as a puppy. Dogs at the pound are given 8 days to be adopted or be put to sleep. Click here for a list of pets available at the Hartford Animal Shelter.

Brady is many things.

She is loving, kind, and a good pet.

She’s also a lemon. 

Within months of owning her, Brady had to have major hip surgery. The surgery was needed so that she can walk. Her condition was no fault of Hartford Animal Control.

The legislature is considering protection for residents who purchase a dog or cat from a breeder or a pet store. The proposed law would seek to ensure that cats and dogs sold in Connecticut are healthy at the time of purchase and not subject to inhumane conditions. Check out the text of the bill here.

I’ll take back what I wrote earlier. In no sense is Brady a lemon. She’s lemonade.
