Live blogging from Austin Texas

Okay then, here I am in Austin waiting for Day 2 of the Conference on Criminal Appelas to start. It was a mad dash from San Antonio this morning as I had to stop and get my work laptop as I put a new and larger hard drive in my new Dell Mini 9 laptop but the restore disc was badly scratched and therefore unusable. Don't ask.

Needless to say I am so looking forward to sitting in a large room filled with 300+ folks, some of whom are sneezing and coughing .

**swine flu??**

Arrrghhhhh.

Hoping to stay well;

Man o' Law

P.S. All is not bad they have free Starbucks coffee this morning!!
