       The 5th Circuit Court of Appeals handed down an awful gun-related ruling today, but that's no surprise. What caught my eye was this: “The panel was composed of two Trump appointees, Judges Cory Wilson and James Ho, as well as the arch-conservative Ronald Reagan appointee Judge Edith Jones.” (https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2023/02/5th-circuit-court-domestic-violence-second-amendment-right.html)I was an undergraduate when Ronald Reagan was elected; I am now retired. Edith Jones should be, too.

       @jsnell It's virtually impossible to have a set retirement date when you're a consultant, but I stopped taking on new projects over a year ago and moved to "partner emeritus" status with my firm as of Jan 1. I still have old projects that will need my attention for months, if not years, but I do consider myself retired now.
