Surely it's no surprise that NBC's The Law Firm is getting boot after just 2 episodes. The remaining episodes that have already been shot will be shown on Bravo, preferably at about 2:37am. The only thing good to be said about the series is that it brought WWE Smackdown up in the ratings. ;)

Does this surprise anybody? The commercials made it sound like some sort of weird reality Law & Order...when in reality it was more like The People's Court. The one episode I partially saw, on vacation with no Tivo, was something about a three legged dog. Painful to watch them fight over whether the dog counted as evidence, or a witness.

The realllly annoying thing is that NBC cancelled shows like American Dreams for this trash. I'm sure that this won't be the only horrible show that doesn't survive a half season. But they won't bring back a show that had a loyal audience for 5 seasons.

I have yet to find a perfect notetaking gadget. More often than not, simply being able to type, no matter how fast, will not suffice to capture an idea. Over at To-Done, Keith speaks highly of taking notes by hand. Get a notebook. Bring it with you. Separate things over time, and separate meeting notes from "ideas".

My problem was always misplacing my notebook and starting over every time. Plus, I take lousy notes. I never seem to hear things that seem worth writing down. But that goes to show how badly organized I am. :)
