An old geezer married this young woman

 and his friend was trying to figure out why he had done it.

 

He asked him, "Is she beautiful".

Is she a great cook"

"Is she great in bed?"

 

"That doesn't matter any more."

I had a wonderful trip to the Supreme Court this week.

Here's our group in the lobby in front of the statue of John Marshall.

No pictures allowed during the proceedings, but I took this one as we entered.

Justice Amtonin Scalia sat in the center chair for the Historic Reenactment of the famous

Aaron Burr Treason Trial.  He listened to both sides, and found Aaron innocent again.

At the cocktail reception later, the portrait on the left is John Jay. (Sorry for the blur.)

 

 

This photo blurred too. Stuart and Justice Scalia.

There's a picture of Justice Scalia, me and the others due to be sent to me once the proofs are ready.

Here Justice Scalia leaves, holding the book I just gave him. 

 

He signed an autograph for me a minute later.

It was his picture in the Washington Post that he had not known about until I told him.

He had quite a week in the media!  I think he's great!
