I agree with Scalia? Agaist Stevens?

This may be one of the signs of the apocalypse, but the Supreme Court has just issued an
opinion on which I agree with Kennedy and Scalia, and against Stevens. Granted, unless you live over here in California, this ruling's probably not crucial to you, but it's been a sore point for some time.

If you live in one of those states where it's abruptly legal to order wine directly from California, you might want to take the opportunity to discover that along with left-of-center political opinion, my heavily-populated home state makes an enormous amount of really, really good wine. If you're over twenty-one and have neither anywhere to drive nor heavy machinery to operate, check out Meeker, Rabbit Ridge, and the rest of California's collection of small wineries.

Sorry for the home-state boosterism, folks--sometimes I just can't resist.
