Corpus Christi
Last weekend we went to check out Eric's life in Corpus. He took us to the Naval base where we were able to board the plane he flies and of course we made a trip to the commissary for some discounted goods.
Eric has a great place right on the water. We had a very difficult time leaving the back deck except when we made the jaunt to Wataburger Park to watch a minor league baseball game. I asked Eric how he gets anything accomplished with such scenery. All in all it was a very relaxing weekend. Thanks for hosting mi hermano!!!
"Chickification"
Let me preface this by saying I've never been a hardcore feminist BUT...
Yesterday I was driving and had my radio scanning the am stations because I was missing Air America. Of course, when I heard Rush Limbaugh's voice I had to listen. It's like when you see someone getting handcuffed on the side of the road or "rubber necking" to see a car accident. I feel really enlightened because now I know more about the Women's Movement. In the words of Rush: "it totally, totally, totally messed things up." Here's a sample of absurdity:
RUSH: What I mean by the feminization of America is that feminist doctrine of the modern era which has its roots in the late sixties and early seventies has cowed men. Men now have linguini spines, and women and the way they think and do things, are pretty much taking over or are making inroads in a lot of places, particularly in education, all the way up to higher education.
CALLER: Okay.
RUSH: Look, would you agree with me that men and women are different?
CALLER: Absolutely.
RUSH: All right. Well, women are what they are and who they are, and men used to be who they are, or were, but men are trapped. Men, they'll do anything to get where they want to go, the
Promised Land, if you know what I mean. So there's just been a general decline of masculine culture, masculinity, and when it shows up it's lampooned and made fun of and it's called brute force and so forth. The chickification of the news is nothing more than you admit to me that men and women are different, women look at things different, they have different interests, and they now have more positions of prominence in the news business than they used to have.

Cinco de Mayo
The pictures below depict last weekend's law school reunion on Lake Travis. It was quite the adventure, with friends coming from Dallas, D.C., New York, San Diego and Philadelphia.
May is now in full effect.
Abe decided the sun roof was a better way to enter the car.
