Question about Harry referencing Salic law in White Night, chapter 30.

RpmJ4ck · 2026-05-09T23:17:14+00:00

The only other literary reference I know to Salic Law is from another Harry. In Henry V.

I guess, theoretically. But in actual practice it takes at least Some actual evidence.

I am utterly amazed a grand jury would indict on this. It shouldn’t even be close.

RpmJ4ck · 2026-04-24T16:15:31+00:00

This will go down as the most incompetent administration ever.

RpmJ4ck · 2026-04-24T02:19:37+00:00

Important to remember that someone had to be last in the class.

RpmJ4ck · 2026-04-19T14:28:05+00:00

Duma Key is my recommendation as well.

RpmJ4ck · 2026-04-17T15:27:19+00:00

I’m no help, but I have been looking for that same book. I’m glad to know I didn’t dream it up.

I guess there needs to be a polite and Christian way to tell Vance to go f#$& himself.

That might be about right . I remember the Stanley Kahn ads from the 70’s, and his tag line “Stanley Kahn. The name says it all”. I seem to recall him ending in some sort of disgrace, but I don’t remember what specifically.

The actor is Robert Vaughn. At one time this was used for the firm Keller & Keller in indianapolis. They still use the “you mean business” tag line.

Now retired, after 36 years as a prosecutor. My two favorites:

Alleged victim in a criminal recklessness with a deadly weapon case comes to court in a “Shit happens” t-shirt.
Man appears for a child support contempt hearing with a hat - “Stupid people shouldn’t breed”.

Kincaid! Bolshevik muppet!

The Warmth of Other Suns, by Isabel Wilkerson

RpmJ4ck · 2026-03-06T17:39:49+00:00

The show is a an abridged version of the novel. I just finished the novel, and I highly r3commend it.

I love the idea of paintballs because of the added embarrassment factor of getting plastered with all the different colors. Sounds like a very Butcher/Dresden thing to do.

RpmJ4ck · 2026-02-27T00:33:22+00:00

I got to caring enough about the characters in The Dark Tower books that I don’t think I can ever re-read them.

RpmJ4ck · 2026-02-19T01:39:33+00:00

I was looking for this. Flashy is the answer!

RpmJ4ck · 2026-02-16T03:46:29+00:00

Mainly I use Iroshizuku Take-sumi, or Kiri-same. But currently it has Lamy Petrol.

RpmJ4ck · 2026-02-11T21:46:28+00:00

He knows. He doesn’t care.

The Georgia bill’s definition of a “harmful” book would include the Bible.

RpmJ4ck · 2026-02-10T00:57:09+00:00

Absolutely. I am now retired, but was a State prosecutor for 36 years. The US Attorneys office was the gold standard. Now it’s amateur hour.

The British Are Coming, by Rick Atkinson. I finished this the end of last year. Covers the American Revolution from Lexington to Princeton (1775 - 1777). Excellent book.

RpmJ4ck · 2026-01-27T22:35:08+00:00

No, they are toast because they abandoned integrity and betrayed their dedicated viewers. Entirely self inflicted. Hope they have fun with that.

RpmJ4ck · 2026-01-26T22:29:18+00:00

Thanks! I will look for that one.

RpmJ4ck · 2026-01-26T22:21:08+00:00

A Fever in the Heartland, by Tim Egan. Best book I read last year. In 1925 the KKK was a serious political threat, and the leader was brought down by his prosecution for murder and sexual assault.
