Begging the Question: February 2009
http://kbasin.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Travel, grammar, pop culture, law, neurosis. Mostly neurosis. Thursday, February 12, 2009. This legal brief brought to you by the fine folks at the Coca-Cola Company of America. Going into the kitchen on my floor at work at 6 pm and looking at the bin for aluminum recyclables is mildly terrifying. You non-lawyers have no. Idea how much caffeine goes into making your legal system function (and the can bin doesn't even account for the tea and coffee). Links to this post. Monday, February 09, 2009. Amusingl...

Begging the Question: Christian Bale will destroy you
http://kbasin.blogspot.com/2009/02/christian-bale-will-destroy-you.html
Travel, grammar, pop culture, law, neurosis. Mostly neurosis. Tuesday, February 03, 2009. Christian Bale will destroy you. On the radio today, I learned that Christian Bale apparently does not. Have patience for directors of photography who distract him by walking in the background while he is filming a scene. Hence, this tirade from the set of Terminator: Salvation.

You seem to have found my "strange, trying-to-be-funny blog! I'm not surprised.putting my real name and picture up isn't very stealthy, I admit (perhaps you're now wondering how my double-fisting of cocktails will affect the show? Dissect, analyze, judge.

Begging the Question: June 2008
http://kbasin.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Travel, grammar, pop culture, law, neurosis. Mostly neurosis. Tuesday, June 17, 2008. This whole Bar study period has proved more distracting than even I anticipated or hoped, so the updates haven't been coming as hard and fast as I'd hoped. Let's divide things by topic or theme. At first, we were jubilant. Hooray! We were free of the feline scourge! Perhaps we should try to find a way to peacefully coexist with her? And that cat, as if sensing the softening of our hearts with her keen feline senses, beg...

Begging the Question: Small consolation
http://kbasin.blogspot.com/2009/02/small-consolation.html
Travel, grammar, pop culture, law, neurosis. Mostly neurosis. Monday, February 09, 2009. Last week was pretty hectic work-wise, and I churned out 3 fairly substantial research projects in the course of the week, all of which were passed on to the client as I finished them. Spending a week working late doing nothing but research memos is undoubtedly a drag. But there is something oddly gratifying about seeing one's work in PDF format. It has such a sense of finality and officiality to it. Los Angeles, CA.

Travel, grammar, pop culture, law, neurosis. Mostly neurosis. Monday, August 24, 2009. On the advice of a couple friends, I decided to post an official straight-from-the-horse's-mouth postportem on the WWTBAM message board after my historic million-dollar miss. I thought it might be interesting/helpful to share it here (slightly edited to translate message board slang to plain English):. Links to this post. Labels: cult of celebrity.

Begging the Question: Next target: Neptune. I'm watching you, Neptune.
http://kbasin.blogspot.com/2009/07/next-target-neptune-im-watching-you.html
Travel, grammar, pop culture, law, neurosis. Mostly neurosis. Tuesday, July 14, 2009. Next target: Neptune. I'm watching you, Neptune. Many people have now remarked that, for several weeks now (4 or 5 weeks, if memory serves), my gchat status has stated that Ken Basin "is still consumptive." They assume that this is either an oversight (i.e., that there's no way I'm still consumptive), or that I must be on the verge of death. Evidently, I am allergic to the moon, and now it must be destroyed.
