About

BRIDGE WALK NOTES


  • We do the Bridge-Walks on Saturday mornings assuming no rain or other commitments. We meet at 7:45 a.m. and begin walking to the Golden Gate Bridge at 8:00 a.m. It's okay to arrive late; you'll just have to catch up or meet us after the turn at Fort Point. 7:45 a.m. SFYC-Marina parking lot to GGB & return, assuming a decent weather forecast. This is a walk TO, not over, the bridge, and back.

  • Description: Unless otherwise noted, all walks proceed as follows: we begin at the parking lot shown as Yacht Road on Mapquest adjacent to the north end of the Marina Green next to the St. Francis Yacht Club. We meet at 7:45 a.m. and at 8:00 a.m. ambling towards the Golden Gate Bridge, which is about a mile-and-a-quarter away. If you're late, it's easy to catch up. The round trip takes about 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours. There are comfort stations at each end. Snacks and a bookstore are at the Warming Hut near the Bridge. Plenty of birds and boats to see along the way. Bring a friend or child, a camera or binoculars. Dress for wind and weather. Drizzles don't bother, rainstorms will cancel. We talk about something, nothing, birds, plants, boats, whatever, and if it relates to Con-Law, so much the better, but that's not required. We enjoy ourselves, basically, by getting fresh air and taking a more or less brisk walk, depending on what stops we make to smell the flowers or view a bird.

DUMB-ASS QUESTIONS FOR ROBERTS

You could ask Roberts how he will vote, or how he would've voted, but nuthin' beats the ones below, except for the next batch that will come along.

Interrogation, or love-fest, begins Sept. 6.

                                                

8/1/2005

                          
                         

Mr. Sun's entries in the Most Dumbass Question for Judge Roberts contest.                                                 

                        
  Howard Bashman of How Appealing has announced a contest to:

Identify the most dumb-ass question that could possibly be asked of U.S. Supreme Court nominee John G. Roberts, Jr. at his upcoming confirmation hearings.


My entries:

  • Is it true Nicholas Cage stole the Constitution, or did I get that all confused?
  • Fantasy Draft -- Peyton Manning or Randy Moss?
  • Do you see dead people, and by that I mean the founding fathers. I sure hope so.
  • Who let the (Establishment) clause out? Who? Who?
  • How many megapixels would the Founding Fathers recommend I get on my next digital camera?
  • Is there a constitutional right to privacy that protects a woman's right to choose the family car, because I am sick to death of these lame-ass minivans.
  • What is the funny feeling I get when someone raises the issue of dudes marrying dudes? (Rick Santorum only)
  • Has it gotten to the point, do you think, that Tom Cruise is unconstitutional?
  • What is it with people who don't love Jesus? What is their problem?
  • How many pints of newborn baby blood must Justice Scalia drink each week  in order to keep his edge?
  • If I sent out my Pikachu to battle your Jigglypuff, who would win?
  • If  Potter Stewart had gotten a load of Justice Thomas' porn collection, would he have considered it obscene?
  • Wasn't Justice Ginsburg hilarious as Ernestine on Laugh-In?
  • How do you get onto the top platform in World 6-3 of Super Mario Sunshine?
  • Ashley said that Kevin asked her to go to the water park, but I told her that he asked me first and she was all, "so what, he asked me second so he likes me better" and I was like "no way, with your fat calves and zits" -- and she was like "way!" which is totally ridiculous and I don't even like Kevin anyway, so wouldn't you say that Ahsley is a total bitch?

In order to gauge Robert's suitability, I would ask -- To whom would you award custody of two young children? Tommy Lee or Pamela Anderson?

how about this: do you agree with the recent SCOTUS ruling on eminent domain, and if so, do you own any property we should know about?
