end of the holiday

a square of pale grass

beneath the tent

 

 

old mill stream

a bramble stalk

in perpetual motion

  With panache, Ernie the Attorney notes Jack Valenti says ‘fair use is not in the law’.  Ernie calls it “bullheadedness,” but isn’t that what mouthpieces do — spin their client’s position, ignoring facts, law, equities?

  Can a lawyer serve the client diligently, and be an “officer of the court,” while being “on the Judeo-Christian side of every issue.”  See article on Rev. Falwell’s Liberty University Law School — National Law Journal, “Law and Religion“.

night in the hut
searching on the shelf…
katydid

 

 

Tisk, tisk!  No, I haven’t been cured of my Referer Madness, and I won’t go into detox.   Instead, I’m turning the obsession — backtracking from the f/k/a  Referer List to search-engine queries that bring hits to this website — into a new, frequently-updated  Feature, called TISK  [the inadvertant searchee and the katydid].

 

You’ll discover why [as with “stocking“] using “hogtied” at a dignified website might not be a good idea, and see how powerful weblog search-engine placement can be.

 

 

 

using his nose
the dog searches
the violets
