Bumped Again

7:30 to 7:30 yesterday, no lunch. Similar hours facing me today. But I did manage to watch American Idol with my family last night. During it, I remembered a David Letterman Top 10 list, "You're Watching Too Much American Idol? [http://www.cbs.com/latenight/

No Eudemon

Rough week so far. No blogging, except to mention a new C.S. Lewis blog [http://booksbycslewis.blogspot.com/]. It's serious CSL.

The New Year Eudemon

Ouch, my head! MAKE THAT CAT STOP STOMPING AROUND! Hand me a Gatorade, a bottle of Motrin, a revolver, and one bullet. Naw, I'm just kidding. I'm dog tired, but not at all hungover, with the exception of the general grogginess that comes after six beers

The Friday Eudemon

Now that researchers have concluded that divorce is bad for the environment [https://thedailyeudemon.com/5826/], Theodore Dalrymple humorously asks [http://www.city-journal.org/html/eon2007-12-27td.html]: > One of the interesting questions that this little piece of research poses is whether the environmentalist lobby will now throw itself behind

Emailers

If anyone tried to email me and didn't receive a response, please try again. Yahoo Mail put at least one apparently legitimate message in my spam/bulk folder. I had highlighted a batch of messages, hit delete, then saw that there were potentially-legitimate messages in there, but it

The Wednesday Eudemon

Goodness gracious, so much for my expected relaxing slide into the holiday week. Frenzy has broken out at the office. Everyone wants to get their legal affairs finished before the holidays. I've never seen anything like it. It's common for this time of year to be

Hobbit Coming

Most righteous: Peter Jackson and New Line Cinema have reached agreement to make J.R.R. Tolkien's "The Hobbit," a planned prequel to the blockbuster trilogy "The Lord of the Rings." [http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20071218/ap_en_ot/film_the_hobbit]

Monday Miscellany

A lot of shoveling yesterday, and a lot of Doans today. My back is killing me and I'd rather stay home and take it easy, but the office calls. Fortunately, I have a very good chair ($1,000 chair that I got for $100 because the manufacturer put

Brews You Can Use

Put a fork in my head. Over two hours spent at the 6th, 7th, 8th grade and high school Christmas band concert. I swear the bulk of it was spent watching the different groups warm up. Limited time this morning, but a few things: The 12 Beers of Christmas [http:
