Maybe I’m getting old and set in my ways — after any
traveling, I am always pleased to return home to Schenectady.
Today, I left Rochester quite early, in order to beat some
winter precipitation that was going to be coming at me from
both the west and the east.
To celebrate a safe return to rain-to-snow Schenectady,
I’m going to share a few poems from Schenectady’s most
celebrated haiku poet, Yu Chang.
vivid dreams
the din of a garbage truck
drives you away
back on shore
the river
pouring from his swamp boots
turning over
a dead leaf
an earthworm twitches
snowdrift
news of a missing dog
from pole to pole

Even not-so-young whippersnappers like Evan Schaeffer
are apparently addicted to techno-speed, and need their

concocting this daily weblog buffet. RU Impressed?
You don’t have to be a federalist-fanatic or libertarian to
worry about the phenomenon of overcriminalization. Both
Mike Cernovich and Jeremy Richey have pointed to
Overcriminalization: The Politics of Crime, a symposium now
available in the American University Law Review (Vol. 54: 3,
2005). There are four articles, two essays and more, with
plenty of food for thought.
