“‘And I guess you think reporters are adored.’” “The Pelican Brief” by John Grisham This was my first time ever even really considering reading a Grisham novel. I’ve never even seen a Grisham movie. But it was there in my pile of books, and so I ready it and, while I didn’t love it, I…

Some people who follow this blog and a lot of people who know me in real life know that I set a lot of odd and arbitrary goals for myself to get things done. Often, they’re almost OCD in nature: this has to be done first for this to happen, and if this happens this…
