Sex and the California Supremes

It looks like the California Supreme Court uses the Bill Clinton-approved definition of sex -- that is, oral sex isn't. SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - A 22-year-old Californian man who received oral sex from a sixteen-year-old girl should not be forced to register for life as a sex offender, the California Supreme Court ruled on Monday. […]

What's news?

There's an old journalistic axiom that dog-bites-man isn't news, but man-bites-dog is news. Why? Because it's the unexpected, that people want to know about. Associated Press business reporter Sandy Shore, and every editor above her, have forgotten this basic tenet. Sidelined in the merger game since its failed bid for MCI Inc., Qwest Communications could […]

Then and now

I've said before that I didn't watch the Oscars Sunday night. I didn't even know which had won Best Picture until Monday afternoon. However, after checking out a list of the winners, I thought a little history might be in order. 1989 (62nd) MUSIC (Original Song) * "Under the Sea" from The Little Mermaid -- […]

There's a 7 in the morning?

Needless to say that I didn't get up early this morning to watch NBC's "Today" show with Colorado teacher Jay Bennish (transcript here). However, I am somewhat sympathetic to this analysis of host Matt Lauer's questioning of Bennish. Lauer: "They shopped it around to conservative media outlets and finally released it to one and created […]

Duke's replacement

My main criteria for convicted Congressman Randy "Duke" Cunningham's successor is twofold: I want him/her to keep their trousers buckled and keep their hands in their own pockets. I've been getting a plethora of campaign mailers over the past month and hae been mostly disinterested in them. Many candidates are running either on their biography […]

One would hope that the sad silliness that has become Cindy Sheehan's life would be close to disappearing from the public eye. The anti-Semitic nitwit got arrested once more to make a silly, empty point. Women Say No to War, which helped organize the news conference and march, said Sheehan and three other women were […]

How much are their principles worth?

The Supreme Court ruled unanimously today that if law schools want to continue cashing checks from the federal government, then they have to treat military recruiters the same as they do other businesses. As I noted at the time, it never really looked like the law schools were going to win this one.  I was […]

Oscar night

I'm not watching them, though I did briefly find myself catching a glimpse when I flipped by and thought I had found a Wallace & Gromit cartoon to watch. It turns out it was the Academy Awards and I kept watching long enough to see Reese Witherspoon (hubba, hubba) announce that Wallace & Gromit had […]
