* Since the knife wasn’t stored between somebody’s testicles, TSA missed it. [NY Post]

* This is why I blog, instead of etching things in stone. [Village Voice]

* An expert witness, Walter Quijano, testifying before a parole board in Texas, said that “being black could contribute to an inmate’s future dangerousness.” That’s kind of a self-fulling prophecy because I feel way, WAY more likely to be dangerous to Walter Quijano in the future.

[The Volokh Conspiracy]

* Of course, the Courts suck too. [Times Union]

* The Courtroom is the only court you’ll see basketball in. [Huffington Post]
