Before The Law

Recognizing, no doubt, the expertise in justice of which my blog is the proof, the authorities of the Metropolis have selected me for the heavy burden of jury duty.  While the great weight of my responsibilities is somewhat alleviated by the the princely compensation of five dollars an hour, I fear that posting may be somewhat light for the next two weeks or so, although I will do my best to keep up.  It somehow seems appropriate to reflect on Socrates and Alcibiades discussing justice when being asked to render it "real" life as well.  Anyway, until my return, here is a video of Orson Welles narrating Franz Kafka own meditation on the intersection of law and justice.
