Associate Professor of Law at West Virginia University College of Law. Formerly an ACLUFL Attorney. I enjoy writing about free expression, academic freedom, and American history.

All opinions are my own, not my employer's, and are correct, probably.
My fellow Jerry looking like he's asleep; hearing, "I'm not a cat"; immediately snapping to attention; laughing; and then calling somebody else into the room to show them what's happening. 🤣

Sounds like a lot of work, Jonathon. Can't I just check and see if there were any statutes on point and then call it a day? Surely, you're not suggesting that social practices and norms existed in the past independent of statutory law! 🙃

I have no excuses. I'm just longwinded.

Unfortunately, my two favorite Mexican restaurants there (a seafood place and a burrito joint) did not survive COVID.

I don't know how y'all feel about steak, but Cattleman's is an experience. It's near El Paso. They don't take reservations, though, and the wait can be quite long. (The lobster there is also quite good and huge.) Echo Cafe Central as an upscale dining place. Will also echo L&J Cafe.

No, he's not a "DEI hire." DEI increases the pool of applicants, resulting in a well-qualified hire. Kid Rock is an anti-DEI hire---a crony.

Waiting for Ron Artest to pop out of the crowd.

If Peterson is out, KU needs a ringer to step into his role. Corey, it's time to lace up your Jordans. 🙃
