Are scanners a technology whose days are numbered? As our use of paper recedes, will scanners, like fax machines before them, eventually become obsolete? I pondered that question as I considered the new Fujitsu ScanSnap iX1300 , which is being released to the market today.

Hobonichi Techo planners have stolen my heart. As a verified card-carrying analog weirdo, my relationship with paper is multivalent and perhaps ever so slightly unhealthy. I nerd out over really great sticky notes. I write thank-you cards like it’s 1845. I go through pencils the way other people go through something they go through. Yet, though I gush over Leuchtturm 1917 pads and Moleskines and (oh, baby) Baron Fig notebooks, my daily planner is a crappy yellow legal pad and has been for

Whether counseling your client or in your opening statement, to call these people “lucky” shows a lack of empathy and risks insulting them. “You’re lucky the collision wasn’t worse.”. “He was lucky the cops got there so fast.”. “You’re lucky you were able to get out of the house before your husband could hurt you again.”. Tone-deaf. As attorneys, we often meet people who have suffered calamities.
