1. The Foreign Exchange’s Connected continues to impress. The sole disappointment is that Nicolay’s Bomb-Squad-level productions wholly overshadow Phonte’s above-average raps — giving life to the cliche’ that the perfect is indeed the enemy of the good.
2. Kinda committed to attempting the Chicago mini-triathalon. I’ll be the guy in the thong with the John 3:16 hair. The only question is whether I’ll be that guy (1) at home in the company of a pony keg and a pack of smokes, or (2) swimming/biking/running the race. Support — in the form of a donation to the Chicago hospital of your choice — would be much appreciated.
(O.K., so I probably won’t be wearing a thong — at least, so far as you’ll know.)
3. The Federal Circuit, which was specifically created in the early 80s to bring predictability and order to the patent laws, has somehow managed to make the law even more unpredictable and disorderly. For many issues, it really does depend on the panel that you get — there is no uniform agreement on basic issues such as, erm, how one construes a claim. (For the laypeople: Trust me when I say that claim construction is a basic issue.)

Sorry, but my donation to said hospital is contingent on external wearing of said thong, preferably over bright green tights and with a yellow cape trailing…:P
good luck in the training.
Hmm, I never considered a thong and cape. Sehr Modern.
Anyone who has watched “The Incredibles” should realize “NO CAPE!”

LOL…I forgot about that…that designer character was pure comic genius!
Many would say the same of the tax court (though it works in the opposite way the fed circuit does).
Von, I couldn’t help noticing that plaintiffs have filed their briefs today defending their RICO claim in the DDC Abu Ghraib suit against Titan and CACI. IIRC, you posted some analysis of the suit, back when it was filed.
You can get them off PACER: No. 04-1248
The parties have drawn a very good judge, and I think you’ll see a well written opinion, whenever it comes to that.
Wonderful, CC. I appreciate it.
I may be revealing ignorance of some obvious part of American pop culture, but WTF is “John 3:16 hair”?

You know, the guy in the endzone at football games with the rainbow colored afro-wig and the sign that says John 3:16. (Maybe that stopped in the 80s.)
