I don't work all the time when I am on the road. In fact, I love thinking up cool ways to use my gadgets for entertainment. Watching TV in the coach is a nice way to relax; and with the Starlink and Roku, I can watch Rays baseball, Bucs Football, Lightning games, and Diane can watch anything else she wants. But, sometimes, it is nice to get outside and sit in a portable chair, with scotch in hand, and watch TV.

On March 15th, the Iowa legislature passed S.F. 262 (the “ICDPA”), making it the sixth U.S. state to pass a comprehensive state privacy statute. The Iowa statute most closely resembles the Utah Consumer Privacy Act (“UCPA”), though it also shares some similarities with the approaches adopted in Virginia, Colorado, and Connecticut. The statute will next go to the governor’s desk for signature.

Poems are often inspired by simple comments or remarks. My good friend, Shawne Park, inspired this one this morning, with a comment he made to my post about the implications of a sign marking the end of a sidewalk the other day. In his words "the road goes on forever, and the story never ends". It occurred to me that everything actually does end for a single human.

We all die. That is a given. I suppose that, since I have "Memento Mori" signs all over the place, that I am guilty of the same Captain Obvious disease as the lawyer for this town. But, we live in times where the failure to warn is often considered negligence. So, as a lawyer for a small town, it is not unusual for signs like this one to be recommended.

Many of them entertain the idea of selling these platforms to others. Yet, few of them try, and still fewer of them are successful.
