Within Normal Parameters

Back in 2016, Reason magazine took a survey of libertarians, one of whom, as I recall, said that he planned to vote for Hillary Clinton, on the grounds that he thought her wrong about nearly everything, but at least she was wrong within normal parameters.

After dinner on Thursday, I poured a couple of ounces of tawny port, and drank a toast: “To a President who is wrong within normal parameters!”

I still plan to write to my Congressman and Senators, urging them to oppose President Biden’s proposals to add further to the debt, and impose new regulations.

The Red Queen’s Race

This week, I got one After Final amendment on my Expedited docket, and did an Office Action in response, so I have the same three amendments on my Amended Docket as last week.

I have been working on my oldest Regular New case, and have written almost six thousand words today, in addition to the writing and other work I put in earlier. They do give me extra time to deal with a case like this, with a large number of claims, and ten or more pages just listing the Information Disclosure Statement documents I am to consider, but it isn’t enough extra time.
