It is the little things...

Studying law is just too cool. The stuff that comes up in class or readings. Like in trespass to land (airspace). If I fire a bullet across your land is that trespass to land? well... actually this goes on for a bit and involves a dead cat. mebbe I will leave it to people to ask me for details. Or the torts case that allows you to sue and exclude people from land that you don't own. If you act like you own it for long enough, it kind of becomes true. 

anyway, that isn't the cool bit I just stumbled over. Did you know that in 1849 The Secretary of State for the Colonies was Earl Grey. Isn't that fantastic? Earl Grey is who got the ball rolling for us to become a nation. I knew I liked Earl Grey for a reason - I just didn't know that reason was patriotism!

off to make some tea.....
