Revised official statement
O.k., now that they're out-ing me, let me give you the straight skinny. The real reason I'm pulling the plug on this blog is not to spend more time with my family. It's not to get more paying work done, nor to start getting some sleep at night.
No, I'll shamefully admit that the real reason I'm stepping down is because, in the late 1970s, I had sex with a Republican. Multiple times.
It screwed up her life. She voted Democratic for a while, then started calling my office, screaming, "I went to a rally for Walter Mondale, you bastard! You owe me!"
She was a very progressive Republican, but I should have known better. And I've lived with the secret guilt and shame all these years.

That's a hard roll. I spotted -- was it tax? -- on the bar exam, and you taught the bar prep course on it. Or whatever subject it was. I don't think it was tax. Was tax on the Oregon test. Whatever. It's late. I just ate a wonderful and wonderfully cheap burrito. It was big and authentic. Oooh, look at the endorsements on the left sidebar: Fish, Kerry, and Potter. Well, I'll give you one of them. ...
