It's a great day because the latest issue of The Green Bag arrived in the mailbox. I'm such a periodicals junkie! Three quick highlights:
1) It reminded me to post the picture of the SCOTUS bobblehead collection slowly forming in my office (the googling monkey on the left is an unofficial "wobble-on" representing Chief Justice John Roberts until his bobblehead is professionally designed).
2) The poem by James Rosenbaum (at 9 Green Bag 2d 13) detailing the woes of the new 'pick-up-your-own-darn-doll' policy reminded me of my own special purpose road trip.
3) Vikram Amar and Alan Brownstein's article titled "Academic Freedom" cited a 1998 Colorado Supreme Court case against a high school English teacher of mine who (according to the court) crossed the line in bucking the school administration...the bummer of that whole thing was that the push to punish him had so little to do with his conduct with students, and so much more with his desire to inspire debate among his colleagues. A good man shot down without cause, IMHO. See 960 P.2d 695 (Colo. 1998) (sorry, free link unavailable).

And I'm very glad to see the return of A3G and his/her blog: Underneath Their Robes.
Welcome back, Article III Groupie! While you were gone, you missed a SCOTUS rockslide. And we're sorry you'll be AWOL during Samuel Alito's confirmation hearings. You'll miss a good show.

Nice picture of the bobbleheads. I especially like the hats.
