Thomas E. Brennan(1929-2018) served as justice and then chief justice of the Michigan Supreme Court. He founded the Thomas M. Cooley Law School. He graduated from Detroit Catholic Central High School in 1947, and received the Shamrock Bar Association's Richard Hathaway Distinguished Lawyer Award, posthumously, in 2019. (You don't have to be a CC alum to be featured on this blog, but it doesn't hurt).
In 2008, Justice Brennan started his blog, oldjudgesays.
The blog has over 440 posts and covers a wide range of topics, personal, professional and political.
Someone has shown the good sense to continue to pay the Blogger platform to keep the blog on the web. It is worth looking at.
The November 15, 2017 post, Puzzling, is very relevant to Lex Fugiteers:
"On a shelf in the hallway upstairs there is a random collection of diaries Polly and I have started, kept and abandoned through the years. Many of those pages are filled with the minutia of daily living; going to the office, driving kids to school, visiting and/or entertaining neighbors, friends and relatives; household chores and on and on.
They bring back the hectic days of midlife; the ice rink in the vacant lot next door; the Baptisms, First Communions, Proms, Graduations, Birthdays and countless crises encountered by a big and busy family.
Whatever challenges we faced in those days, boredom wasn’t among them."
