Unlike us, who focus on our blogs being simply journals of anything under the sun in our specific lives, his blog has a lot of lectures on the law. It&#8217;s too bad I&#8217;m not keen on being a lawyer, but from what I&#8217;ve read, he seems to be a perfectly capable academic law teacher if he so chooses to be one <span class=\"footnote_referrer\"><a role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\" onclick=\"footnote_moveToReference_402_1('footnote_plugin_reference_402_1_1');\" onkeypress=\"footnote_moveToReference_402_1('footnote_plugin_reference_402_1_1');\" ><sup id=\"footnote_plugin_tooltip_402_1_1\" class=\"footnote_plugin_tooltip_text\">1 <\/sup><\/a><span id=\"footnote_plugin_tooltip_text_402_1_1\" class=\"footnote_tooltip\">I wouldn&#8217;t be surprised if he is.<\/span><\/span><script type=\"text\/javascript\"> jQuery('#footnote_plugin_tooltip_402_1_1').tooltip({ tip: '#footnote_plugin_tooltip_text_402_1_1', tipClass: 'footnote_tooltip', effect: 'fade', predelay: 0, fadeInSpeed: 200, delay: 400, fadeOutSpeed: 200, position: 'top right', relative: true, offset: [10, 10], });<\/script>. I guess he has a terrific sense of decrypting the jargon involved with legal stuff and siphoning it down to words we all can understand.<\/p>\n<p>And to answer the last sentence in his <a href=\"http:\/\/thepunziblog.blogspot.com\/2005\/12\/night-flight-live-in-digital.html\" title=\"View post\">post<\/a>; I wish that too&#8230; unfortunately I ain&#8217;t got the means (or connections) to do so.

I&#8217;d love to go into detail to prove my point, her heritage, her peers, etc. But I figured she wouldn&#8217;t appreciate me drilling into her life. Besides, she doesn&#8217;t need to live in anyone&#8217;s shadow, wether parent or peer. She has &#8220;arrived&#8221; on her own with her own two hands and voice &#8211; and everyone who knew her since school days knows how much she has grown and succeeded in her craft. And I will say this: <em>if you only knew the stuff she&#8217;s been up to now&#8230;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>So regardless of what she, or others think, I put great weight in the fact that she mentioned my work at all. Not only because she&#8217;s a good friend, but she&#8217;s a <strong>super<\/strong> musician&#8230; and her input means a great deal to me. I dream of the day when we walk among the same peers, perhaps even working, jamming, having fun as most musicians do&#8230; but alas I&#8217;ve still a whole lot to learn.<\/p>\n<p>Anyways, thanks again for the plug dear \ud83d\ude42<\/p><div class=\"speaker-mute footnotes_reference_container\"> <div class=\"footnote_container_prepare\"><p><span role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\" class=\"footnote_reference_container_label pointer\" onclick=\"footnote_expand_collapse_reference_container_402_1();\">Notes<\/span><span role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\" class=\"footnote_reference_container_collapse_button\" style=\"display: none;\" onclick=\"footnote_expand_collapse_reference_container_402_1();\">[<a id=\"footnote_reference_container_collapse_button_402_1\">+<\/a>]<\/span><\/p><\/div> <div id=\"footnote_references_container_402_1\" style=\"\"><table class=\"footnotes_table footnote-reference-container\"><caption class=\"accessibility\">Notes<\/caption> <tbody> \r\n\r\n<tr class=\"footnotes_plugin_reference_row\"> <th scope=\"row\" class=\"footnote_plugin_index_combi pointer\"  onclick=\"footnote_moveToAnchor_402_1('footnote_plugin_tooltip_402_1_1');\"><a id=\"footnote_plugin_reference_402_1_1\" class=\"footnote_backlink\"><span class=\"footnote_index_arrow\">&#8673;<\/span>1<\/a><\/th> <td class=\"footnote_plugin_text\">I wouldn&#8217;t be surprised if he is.<\/td><\/tr>\r\n\r\n<tr class=\"footnotes_plugin_reference_row\"> <th scope=\"row\" class=\"footnote_plugin_index_combi pointer\"  onclick=\"footnote_moveToAnchor_402_1('footnote_plugin_tooltip_402_1_2');\"><a id=\"footnote_plugin_reference_402_1_2\" class=\"footnote_backlink\"><span class=\"footnote_index_arrow\">&#8673;<\/span>2<\/a><\/th> <td class=\"footnote_plugin_text\">Though wouldn&#8217;t it be great if could be?<\/td><\/tr>\r\n\r\n <\/tbody> <\/table> <\/div><\/div><script type=\"text\/javascript\"> function footnote_expand_reference_container_402_1() { jQuery('#footnote_references_container_402_1').show(); jQuery('#footnote_reference_container_collapse_button_402_1').text('\u2212'); } function footnote_collapse_reference_container_402_1() { jQuery('#footnote_references_container_402_1').hide(); jQuery('#footnote_reference_container_collapse_button_402_1').text('+'); } function footnote_expand_collapse_reference_container_402_1() { if (jQuery('#footnote_references_container_402_1').is(':hidden')) { footnote_expand_reference_container_402_1(); } else { footnote_collapse_reference_container_402_1(); } } function footnote_moveToReference_402_1(p_str_TargetID) { footnote_expand_reference_container_402_1(); var l_obj_Target = jQuery('#' + p_str_TargetID); if (l_obj_Target.length) { jQuery( 'html, body' ).delay( 0 ); jQuery('html, body').animate({ scrollTop: l_obj_Target.offset().top - window.innerHeight * 0.2 }, 380); } } function footnote_moveToAnchor_402_1(p_str_TargetID) { footnote_expand_reference_container_402_1(); var l_obj_Target = jQuery('#' + p_str_TargetID); if (l_obj_Target.length) { jQuery( 'html, body' ).delay( 0 ); jQuery('html, body').animate({ scrollTop: l_obj_Target.offset().top - window.innerHeight * 0.2 }, 380); } }<\/script>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since I came back from Australia, I haven&#8217;t had the chance to thank certain people for &#8220;plugging&#8221; me in their weblogs from the past year (ok actually only one from last year, but another one recently, hence this post).
