Today's the day! Those of us participating in the A to Z Blogging Challenge [and it's not too late for you to join the fun] reveal our themes, if we have one.
And I have one.
My theme this year is – US Supreme Court cases [and a few odd smatterings of other incidents] which changed the course of law, and life, in the USA.
US Supreme Court in 2009 [with Scalia] |
To give you a little tidbit [taken from John Davis (manuscript) Frain's idea, visit his blog for more info], my first day is “A is for Arizona”. Do you know what case I'm using, and what that case was about? If you do, post your guess in the comments. You'll find out on April 1 if your guess was right =)
I'll still be continuing my “this day in legal and military history” during April. My "this day" posts will be live on the blog at 5am and my A to Z posts will go live at 6am [California time].
Hope you enjoy the month of April!
Is it horrible that I can't even formulate a guess for "A". Yikes. The upside: I MUST come back to find the answer!
ReplyDeleteReally, I was planning to come back anyway. This sounds like fascinating stuff. I mean, if the Supreme Court already vetted it for interest, who am I to argue? C'mon, April 1...
This should be interesting. A dead guy visiting my blog. Maybe even commenting too. Or is it true the rumor I heard, that you have 27 lives?
DeleteWOW! This is a very different theme. Can't wait to read more about it.

The Old Shelter - Theme Reveal - 1940s Film Noir
I thought it was different. Yours is different too. I never thought there were at least 26 films that would qualify as 1940s film noir. I'm interested to learn what you come up with!
DeleteHm... Could it be Miranda vs. Arizona??? Will be waiting to find out!

That is a very good guess! I hope you'll come back on April 1 to see if you're right.
DeleteThanks for visiting me! I'm a landlady myself ... hope to learn great things from your blog!
ReplyDeleteI'm not a landlady, but I do represent them in court =)
DeleteGlad you're here!
How interesting. I'll be following you.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the follow!
DeleteSounds like you've picked an informative theme. I'll have to check back to learn a few things. :)
ReplyDeleteI hope it's informative for you, and that you check back often. Thanks!
DeleteOooh, this sounds interesting! I admit I don't know enough about this subject, so it should be a learning experience.
ReplyDeleteHope we all learn something. I even learned things when I wrote the posts. Thanks!
DeleteOh, what an interesting theme choice! Good luck with the challenge this year! :D
ReplyDeleteThanks, and thanks for stopping by!
DeleteI'm in Phoenix. The case has to be Miranda! I have an attorney son in NYC so law cases interest me a lot.
ReplyDeleteI found you because you found me! I am doing personality quirks for character development. I hope you'll come by again at www.angelicafrench.blogspot.com
Since you're in Phoenix, you got the Arizona part right! Come back on April 1 to see if you got the Miranda part right. Good guess tho =)
DeleteSay hi to your son for me.
A topical theme consider SCOTUS decisions currently at hand.
ReplyDeleteHave a great Challenge!

Tossing It Out Theme Reveal: It's About Time
Yes, it's been an interesting year or two with SCOTUS decisions. Some of mine for the challenge will be new, but most are older.
DeleteI hope you have a great challenge too!
I know next to nothing about the American legal system, so this will make for some very interesting reading.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the challenge. :-)
