Saturday

First, more on my Supreme Court thread. Might be time for local executive (executive branch) to generally ignore the Court rulings unless the Federal Executive sends in troops, physical or other strong enforcement. As regular readers know I believe that the Court was never intended (Hamilton, 19th century historical view that the House was the predominant political and democratic body with its two year turn over) to be so powerful. Now that the Court is just another political body it should be treated as such, one of three as part of the checks and balances.

Now back to our regularly scheduled programming.

Mostly chores during the day, getting ready for Monday’s departure.

Dinner with Rachael at Noize. High end French restaurant in Fitzrovia. Good but not excellent. Fantastic bread, a few very good dishes but some just ok. Far better quality and service at Brasserie 108 where we could not find fault with any dish or service. I even called over to speak to the manager to tell her.
