this reminds me. does anybody know a good biography of LBJ?

I read Lyndon: An Oral History back in high school. It's a huge book by Merle Miller, but very engrossing. When I got to the page where LBJ dies, I was actually somewhat shocked the main character was gone just like that.

Robert Caro's three-volume (maybe more now) biog is the one all my wannabe Democratic hack friends studied.

only aspiring Democratic hacks read canonical history works

I heard a story about someone going after Jamail (a major plaintiffs' lawyer known for winning the $10.5 billion verdict in the Pennzoil case - then the largest jury verdict ever) for behavior during a deposition in a Delaware case. the judge was unable to sanction him because he isn't admitted in the state (which you're supposed to be before you get involved with a deposition in a proceeding before the states' courts), so the judge wrote an opinion going out of his way to make known his displeasure.

Of course.

strangely, a friend pointed me to this Jamail deposition this afternoon, I'd never heard of him before. He's off-screen to the right.

ten years pass...

Texas Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller posted a story to his campaign's Facebook page about three hunters attacked by Mexican immigrants while camping near Candelaria earlier this month. It had all the elements of a sensational piece, especially for someone who backs hard-core immigration laws.

The hunters, New Mexico hunting guide Walker Daugherty, 26, Florida chiropractor Dr. Edwin Roberts and Michael Bryant, each suffered gunshot wounds and told a tale of being attacked in an attempt to steal the RV the group was using.

But, the Presidio County Sheriff Office reached the conclusion on Friday that the three hunters shot each other.
