I'm the damn paterfamilias!

If you've not taken some time to read through this week's Blawg Review #209, hosted by John Hochfelder at his New York Injury Cases Blog, don't hesitate a moment longer. Many editions of the carnival of legal blogging have been excellent, memorable ones; until this week, though, none of them prompted me to call my father just to chat. Hochfelder's tribute to his late father on his birthday will be a contender for Blawg Review of the Year next January, I'm sure. Highlights include defining acceptable limits for interrogation, finding a better way to deal with executive compensation, and remembering the fight against the Barbary Coast pirates while we deal with their present-day Somalian counterparts. Dan Harris will host next week's Blawg Review #210 at his China Law Blog.
