Look, can we move this to the "Gadgets" board. I want to get back to talking about organizers.

It's like fishing. You gotta throw the little ones back. It's just too easy to land 'em; it wouldn't be sporting.

Monsieur Assclam,

Do you proof the tax memos as closely as your own tag lines?

Please confirm that you are being ironic about a possible lack of irony in that comment.

I am so pleased that Silly Summer Season decided to run long this year.

Why can't we have other comments? Like barely, I want to see what people said!

Excellent. Creepy and responsive at the same time -- well done.

As for the substance, we can only hope that Atticus follows your advice. E-mail correspondence with 13-year-old girls can't lead to anything but trouble. Plus, he wouldn't last a day in prison -- the marriage etiquette there is nonexistent.

It depends. What's your kindling point?

Grasso resigns.msn reports

Actually, I'm surprised he didn't resign immediately after extracting $140M from the NYSE.

But more seriously, a CEO can't make the Board look the fool without expecting to be shitcanned.

When you are wandering about the city and suburbs tomorrow, if you see any downed power lines in front of you, you should (get out of the car, if applicable) and pick them up and move them out of the way. Really. You might also want to keep at least one hand in contact with a metal part of the outside of the car in case one of the lines happens to fall and touch your car. Then maybe you can catch it on the way down, or something.

Edited to say (a) the new signature line is not related to this post and I'm kind of regretting my timing on that and (b) I am SO GLAD I remembered to tell Burger this -- I thought of it last night and nearly let the day slip by without communicating it. Phew!

Edited again to say that if you are driving along or walking along and the road seems to be covered with water, don't sweat it. Even if you have a vague memory that there used to be curbs and sidewalks on the sides of the road but you don't see them now, and up ahead the road seems to stretch from the middle of the yard of the house on one side to the middle of the yard of the house on the other side. Just drive/walk on through/along. You'll be fine. This is an ideal time to grasp power lines as well.

If people want to forward me comments about this most interesting cover letter, I'd be happy to redact information as needed, mix them up, and provide a sample.

If you want send them to info@lawtalkers.com

You left out the tidbit that Larry Sonsini was asked to serve as the interim chairman of the NYSE. I think that's pretty interesting in and of itself.

And Californians claim not to have an inferiority complex.

Hey Flinty, did you catch the shout-out to your favorite band, Death Cab for Cutie, on "The OC" last night?

I vote for OC as the best show of all time. And the worst show of all time. I can't believe it's going to be a month until the next new episode. Fuckity fuck fuck. Or as Summer would say, "Eww."

Best line of last night: Sandy to Seth (about Summer): "She's hot STUFF son!" That whole exchange, with the anime and whatnot, was genius. McG is doing a bang-up job EP-ing that bad boy.

I love the OC. Doug Liman deserves a shout-out, too. Excellent show.
