recantations

Kai asked that I recant the statement "So what we have here, folks, is a person who sold his moral principles for a buck fifty" which I did.

I am sure there is something to say here about the importance of freedom of speech vs respect for a friend vs personal integrity. But I cannot think of what it might be.

So I take it back.

Also, I bought myself a French Press from Peets. And two bags of coffee -- Sumatran and Aged Sumatran. I believe that I am at my 4th cup so far.

Incidently, if you should find yourself so inclined to drink coffee, do visit Peets instead of Starbucks. Starbucks' coffee is frippery while Peets' barristers actually know their coffee.

I love Peets.
