To CP

So after a rather heavy post yesterday, I am going to lighten my mood with this one. I dedicate this to my dear CP.(We're the one in the pink.)

I particularly like her spastic dance moves.

I get the feeling you're both a little Wicked. Sorry, I couldn't resist. Plus it saves everyone else a measure of lameness.

It was here last year and is back in town soon for another short run. It turned out to be one of those shows I really enjoyed when I was sure I'd hate it.

I would have watched your video, I really would. Except I got about 10 seconds into it and my youngest called out from the other room

"DAD! Why are you playing that song from Wicked?!? I HATE that play."

She has a friend who WORSHIPS Wicked and has subjected my youngest to hours worth of it. I just didn't have the heart to go on.

Maybe tomorrow.

But I did appreciate the effort after I wept like a little girl reading your post yesterday.

smart man, dale. CP raved and raved, so I went expecting it to be okay. Loved it.

Bubs, don't risk the wrath of a teenage daughter with opinions. It's mostly an inside joke to CP, though I personally think it's pretty funny. The book for Wicked is really clever.

But I'm here to tell you that any lipstick worth having is nigh 'bout $20 or more and you'll just end up regretting it, and Hollywood has not caught up with the times yet. Plus, it's Oscar season, so once you've seen Slumdog Millionaire your choices are sexy Nazis seducing children, attractive suburbanites mourning the death of their dreams, and nuns and priests talking about child abuse. (That said, I hear Gran Torino is a good diversion with a message, and if you don't hate Brad Pitt as much as I do you could probably sit through that Owen Meany movie where he ages like he's from Ork .) And while I'm as big a Kevin James fan as the next person, you can't ask him

Empathize this

I've got two things on my mind today. First off, I really like Sonja Sotomayor. And I especially like that when discussing his selection criteria for Justice Souter's replacement, President Obama brought up empathy. Empathy is not the same thing as sympathy, compassion or emotion. Empathy is perspective. The idea that our laws have strict, specific definitions that should be considered without perspective is ridiculous. Laws mean something, but they must also be considered in context. That isn't to say they should be applied arbitrarily, or to advocate making exceptions left and right to suit a judge's whim...suggesting laws should be considered in context simply means that the courts must consider how our laws should be interpreted, and how they can make our society a better, more habitable, more functional one. How they can help Americans live their lives without impediment to their personal liberties. Empathy provides the perspective necessary to do this. Judge So
