1. This morning, on the Today Show, two attorneys who had met with John Mark Karr were interviewed. One of them said that John Karr had been unfairly portrayed in the media. Am I missing something here? Is there a way to put a positive spin on this guy?

2. This website describes taking a ball of mud and shaping it into a shiny, perfect sphere. I do not want to try making one. Right?

3. We ate Vietnamese food tonight in Chinatown. We ate at a little place called The Noodle. We ate there once before, when we had just started seeing each other.

Why are they staring at each other?”

4. Driving past Polk Street made me think of the song Polk (Poke?) Salad Annie. I don’t really know the song, I just remember the title. What the hell is polk salad?

5. I have been contemplating taking the Patent Bar. I think I may just be craving intense study or a new challenge. I may pick up Rosetta Stone software and try my hand at a new language.
