Off like a herd of turtles...
So, joining the ranks of masses who feel like they have something relevant (or not) to say, I've started a blog. Some housekeeping issues first:
1) What the hell is with the blog name?
--To give credit where credit's due: former New York State chief judge Sol Wachtler was complaining that district attorneys could get Grand Juries to "indict a ham sandwich," suggesting that the average grand jury was easily influenced by DAs. For my part, my interests include (amongst other things) food and the law. Judge Wachtler's quote combines both of these concepts nicely. Thank you, Your Honor.**
2)Other things that might be a topic of conversation:
--Columbus--my hometown, in all it's up-and-coming Midwestern glory.
--The art world--while my PhD in art history isn't going to happen anytime soon, I do still like to keep an eye on things.
--Shameless plugs for places/things that I like or recommend. I know I have no critical credentials, but hell, I'm open minded and experimental, and always willing to share.
Bear with me while I get the swing of things, and with luck, this will turn into something relatively interesting. If not, at least it keeps me entertained when work is slow.
**I realize that this makes me tremendously nerdy. That's fine.
