The first and only NBA game I caught this year. I enjoyed watching one of my favorite players in the league shredding last night. At TgiFridays in Asuncion with @che_dios.

I wrote a little thing on my blog about how to improve your handwriting. Here’s a little gallery of handwriting I’ve tried to rip off over the years…

If our handwriting could improve just a tetch, then maybe all the books we send out to contest winners and bloggers wouldn’t make it look like we have some kind of army of child interns doing mailings for us.

"We don’t have a system of government set up for Presidents to drive
legislation through Congress. Rather, we have a system that was
designed to encourage division between the branches but to resist the
formation of political parties. The parties formed anyways, and they
now use the branches to compete with one another. Add in minority
protections like the filibuster, and you have a system in which the
job of the president is to persuade an opposition party that has both
the incentive and the power to resist him."
