As it turns out, the controlled burn won’t be in the specific area where his tent was found ... and wow, I feel disappointed.

Yeah, I’m currently within the 20 day appeal period and I’m considering my options. I’m a lawyer (and somewhat in this realm) so I’ve got the resources to do something but ... at the end of the day, it wouldn’t actually help us achieve anything concrete. Like, it won’t actually help us find him and it won’t help us…

Yeah, it’s been ... interesting. I think the most bizarre thing is Forest Service’s (he went missing in a national forest, not park, sorry) response to the FOIA request was “we have stuff, but we’re not giving it to you” when it would have been better for them to just say, “look, we don’t have anything.” This sort of…

No, it hasn’t been publicized except to some Appalachian Trail groups on Facebook last year. It’s been over a year so no need to post anything - we’re in the process of moving on, going to put up a little memorial in a few weeks actually.

I used to really love [that podcast] but.. I’ve definitely reconsidered my feelings. I went to a live show and it seemed a bit grotesque when I actually listened in person and people were laughing.. 

My brother is one of the thousands of people who have gone missing in a national park ... it’s hard to say whether I would go on record for a documentary. I don’t know the details of your documentary but there’s such a conflict between hoping that speaking out will help bring closure to wanting to keep things out of…

Yeah, I own about 6 different CK sheath dresses!

LOL - it’s Omar from the Wire with her face on it.

“The Democratic base has never been as comfortable with full-throatedly supporting Israel no matter its policies as Democratic elected officials have been, but until now, she didn’t know it because there was no way to express that tension.”

I tend to think the legal profession is cratering because too many law schools opened and there are too many lawyers. On one hand, this has made lawyers more affordable to clients. On the other hand, clients aren’t willing to pay your law school debt anymore so I hope you went to public school or have a cushy job…

In general, I agree with you ... because I live in a highrise. If I could get a dog to do its business in a walk-in shower*, I WOULD HAVE A DOG.

“She’s been denied wearing pants when she sleeps at night because it’s against the prison’s policy.”

It’s weird because people believe both everything and nothing they read on the Internet. The Earth is flat!

Betty went to the dark side and murdered him, obviously.

Hm. I live in midtown and my building just started accepting glass recycling again so there is definitely someone in the city recycling glass.

It's crazy how 6 miles become nothing. I mean, I totally agree with you.. I ran my first half last year and then ran another one and my friends joke about how what used to be our long runs (when training for our first 10k) have now become our regular runs.

Wow, James Harden can never shave his beard again!!

I would read and/or watch this! 

*high five*

Well, neighbor, I've never heard this either but I am definitely going to use it sometime this summer.
