His IG was wall to wall outdoors photos. Take a look.

Ironic.

Conf to Ty: now that PLF isn't here to contradict the meaning I can use it!

Looking at PLF's posts on insta over the last year, knowing he had this fucking weasel inside of him tearing apart his flesh, and yet was smiling that big smile through all the pain and the drugs, it just reminds you of what the human spirit is capable of.

He grabbed every bit of life he could. But bookmark his instagram, and the next time you feel like you've got troubles, just look at his smile. It's going to be making me smile too for a long time.

Would love to, but it's private.

His wife is running it. Send em a message introducing yourself and asking for access?

Or I could take screen shots of it and send it to you, at my standard hourly rate. I would need a retainer.


Shocking thing is he went to the U for LS. Normally a co-alumni would have told me? Hopefully you aren’t intimidated by a grad of it?

His Insta was one of the main reasons I'd go over there. I loved his photography so much. His absolutely determination to live life to its fullest and find beauty in his surroundings was writ large in every single photograph. I'd trained the algorithm to show me his pictures first. And he was always one of the first to interact with my pictures. He was absolutely THRILLED when I announced Kanan, and he'd always like pictures of my dogs.

This is a terribly unfair world to take him away so soon. But like Sebby said, I'm glad he went out doing something he absolutely loved.

My son is in law school, doing well, but struggling with blue book citation. I want to say Law profs care and no one else does. Have any of you ever seen a Judge question a citation?

Federal yes. State Court judges ummmm.

Kinda wild watching a bank run in real time on social media.

Yes by a downstate judge when I cited an unpublished decision. I kindly reminded him that the Illinois Supreme Court had just amended the rule allowing it.

I don’t mean mistakes like that. I meant Blue Book errors.

Watched a funny movie just now; The Pez Outlaw. A guy smuggled gray market Pez from Europe into the U.S. Some rural guy from Michigan. He made millions.

Pez’s high priced lawyers had not registered its trademark with US Customs. Unbelievable. Can you say malpractice?

It’s like Penske switched to Trademark law.

I used whatever I remember the blue book to be when I graduated. I have had one or two (sic) quotations by federal judges, in the rare circumstances under which I am held hostage in federal court.

NY State has its own citation norms which I couldn't be bothered to learn or use.

No state judge has said anything -- we're still working on product types and disease names.

Some former NY State appellate clerks who worked for us, appeared chuffed when I changed stuff.

In a decision or order? That was em’s dickhead clerk, I’ll bet.
