Sing It With Me: Everyone's A Winner At Nixon Peabody

Backstory, from Above the Law, which is taking copyright flack for posting this:

• Somebody Deserves To Die For This (slowly and painfully, it should go without saying)


• Nixon Peabody: This Is Not a Love Theme Song

Loads of comments.

Finally getting around to uploading the balance of my AlwaysOn Stanford Summit photos, after upgrading to iLife '08, re-adding FlickrExport, etc. Some nice shots of John McCain (thanks Tony, for always reserving the best seats in the house for the bloggers!).

Period. Playing mama or papa bear in this fashion to someone else's child is Just. Not. Cool.

From experience, the memories and bitterness toward a third party nonparent who slaps a child down can linger right on through adulthood. Not good for any of the parties concerned.

Shop To It

Adding a bunch of great stuff to my StyleFeed from The Spoon Sisters. (Via sk*rt) (What Sandwich Dominatrix doesn't need a cool lunch bag or five?)
