He was a strong advocate for bicycle safety. He protested cars in bike lanes by smashing the windows of cars.

But it wasn't until he encountered a semi parked in a bike lane delivering autos to a Honda dealership that he really struck Accord.

Some of you are going to point out a Centaur has the torso of a human, and thus you'll be un-amuled by my joke.

The Centaur knew something was wrong. But it wasn't until he found out his father was a donkey and his mother was a horse that he started to understand why everything he did was half-assed.

It was a difficult transition from professional tailor to district court judge. Everyone felt his rulings were fair, that he knew the law, but were put off when decisions were "Sew ordered."

If you read none of them., you absorb nothing.
It's not a replacement -- but it can be an augment.

If one has the time and resources, why WOULDN'T you read as many as you can?

At my job, I have 1/2 the time to do 2x as much. I hate not being able to read all the papers anymore.

I used to waste years preparing gourmet meals. It was creative, an expression of my humanity, and fostered zen.

Thanks to McDonalds, I don't have to do that!

Doug Rendleman has passed away.

Doug Rendleman has passed away.

Professor Doug Rendleman has passed away.

Professor Doug Rendleman has passed away.

A sad day at @wlulaw.bsky.social. Doug Rendleman was one of a kindβ€”a rigorous and prolific scholar, a dedicated teacher and mentor to his students, and an influential figure in the world of remedies. My sympathies and condolences to Carol, Doug’s spouse of 65 years, and the entire Rendleman family.
