And eight is great!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Or something.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The story I mentioned briefly has become national news<\/a>. (Choosing the Miami Herald mainly because that was the first thing that came up when I searched on Bing News.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n I didn’t notice that I wrote much about what I was doing with the Newport News CWA<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There were other things going on in the fall of 2001, of course. I was still working in news radio while juggling a fledgling radio career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Would I go to law school? Yeah. That was the plain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n After almost diverting on to my whole spiel about how I never really wanted to be a lawyer, but a judge, I ended up in IT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n What I was doing at the CWA was assisting the Victim-Witness program. <\/p>\n\n\n\n What happened here is definitely needs investigation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Let the justice system work. If the punishments are insufficient, change the laws in Richmond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can look at the political recriminations, but those are for after all the criminal proceedings are finished.<\/p>\n\n\n\n That said, the judge who let the guy out of jail was appointed by a certain Virginia Senator, and some blowback should ensue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But, hey, Keep Virginia Blue! Permanent Democratic plurality rule just as Harry Byrd<\/a>, et. al., intended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Other news. Looks like the grandpa in the basement with a major party’s backing might be backing away from his essential promise to pick a “black” woman as his VP candidate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n One of the things that floated across the news stream the past couple of days was that the governor of Michigan<\/a>. (And writing it that way makes me think of Tecmo Super Bowl, where one of the top quarterbacks was “QB Bills,” because they couldn’t reach an agreement for some of the players<\/a> or something.) But searching around a bit, yep. Michigan State. She’s not going to be VP, even though she’s, objectively, far superior to the folks who’ve been commonly put forth. But she won’t get it because she’s outside the circles of power, especially Harvard and Yale. <\/p>\n\n\n\n You man to say that you shouldn’t pay $150K for two MAs from a state school? Why do you hate young people?<\/p>\n\n\n\n I get it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Please, please, please don’t talk about the development of a US Caste system. It, like Antifa, is a myth<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I’ve realized something\u2026..that I’m generally unable to relax in the presence of other people. Gotta figure out a way to work through this one\u2026..<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is still very true. I’ve tried so many things, but I’m still anxious around others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n My wife is the only person I’ve ever met with whom I feel comfortable. I don’t have to act.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
