Wednesday Update
Nov. 18th, 2015 09:54 amYesterday got away from me. Here, today, have some random thoughts:
A) From Andrew Branca, lawyer: When you go out to the trouble, rather than the trouble finding you, it’s rarely helpful for a claim of self-defense.
B) Regarding the ongoing panty-wadding over Syrian refugees: All the Paris attackers were EU citizens not refugees.
C) From my writing group - "you really can't pants a mystery novel." (At my dad's request, I'm working on a present-day mystery novel set in a small Illinois town.) I have discovered that I can pants (write without outline) a science fiction novel. I've written enough of them to do so. I've not written any mysteries, and so I shall have to curl up with a nice warm outline soon.
