Well, if we are going to move Georgia to Atlantic Standard Time part of the year, why should we expect a legislative day only have 24 hours? #sinedie #gapol

600 and 650 have come and gone. We are the last house it seems on the street and there are still kids with parents wandering around. Probably will be ending soon.

550 was a Pokémon ball

500 was part of a family dressed up as wizards with black robes, hats, grey beards, and staffs

My neighbors just came over with ramen noodles and beer. Our annual tradition

450 was an Alabama football player. He started taunting my UGA daughter so I started doing the Warchant chop.

400 was Dorothy minus the ruby slippers

300 was a purge mask

250 was Stitch with a barb wire wrapped bat. When asked, he said “we don’t talk about that”

200 was a fighter pilot

100 was a young girl dressed as pennywise.

And we’re officially off with a purple spider who made sure her little brother got some candy too

Ok. First guy not only had a very realistic costume but decorated his truck too.

4 large bags of candy

Happy Halloween everybody! For those that don’t know this is my annual thread where I keep track of how many kids come through. Usually it’s between 400 and 500. Living in a 2400 home neighborhood with sidewalks and street lights makes us a target rich environment. But it’s always fun.

@rahulbali.bsky.social was kind enough to include me as part of his story for @wabe.org about this new legal process. Please give it a listen.

Good morning.

Working on a group project that is preparing a document. The draft is in Century Schoolbook. First thing the leader of group did is reformat the document into Calibri because "they don't have an appellate lawyer brain" and "Century Schoolbook is too hard to read on a computer screen." 😶

Oldest daughter at UGA is studying for her quiz in politics. She’s working with her younger sister to make sure the study guide she created is correct. They are debating questions like what did the Bakke decision do? Is the right to counsel found in the 1st amendment? I’m just sitting here. Silent.

If this passes, does this mean that Midnight Yell at Texas A&M would be banned?

Can you use something other than a period to end a sentence in an appellate brief? I'm not talking about a petition or response or motion but the actual merits brief.

I'm two pages in to this brief I'm reviewing and I've already encountered a ? and a ! intentionally used.

You still had at least 5 more minutes to revise something. Or undo a change you had been agonizing over.

Thank you for spreading some joy.

We need to return to posts featuring homemade baking accomplishments and crochet creations. I found my lapel pin while cleaning this weekend. My mugs are still on my desk.

I approved for AJEI2025. Looking forward to visiting balmy Minneapolis....in November. Hope to see friends.

@darthbluesky.bsky.social and pocket friends - please give special snuggles and treats to your fur friends tonight. Simon crossed the rainbow bridge today. Adopted 10 years ago from a local shelter but a purebred lover. I miss him terribly.
