I saw a film today, oh boy.

Howdy, all. Happy New Year, etc.

I didn't realize how long it has been since my last post. While I wish that I could say that I was simply too busy to write something, it was really more a combination of (a) not being able to get on the web when I had something I thought was worth posting, and (b) not having anything worth posting when online. And now I am busy with work stuff, and here I am. Go figure. Anyway, a few quick things:

1. I finally bought and read Philalawyer's book. I had planned on doing a full post on it, and probably will, but just wanted to mention it since it's been several weeks already. Short version -- there are plenty of sex and drugs and rock and roll stories of the type on his website in there, but it also has an interesting discussion about the legal profession. I don't agree with all of my imaginary friend's conclusions (other than the fact that he is one cat remarkably unsuited for some of the places he's worked), but the book is more than just a mere collection of amusing anecdotes.

2. Go see Slumdog Millionaire. Great story. Much less sappy than I expected. You know what will happen at the end, but you will enjoy how the film gets there and what happens along the way.

3. Any New Years resolutions? I am still working on mine, but my perpetual one remains -- I want to be less of a procrastinator.
