Vim and Vinegar: Just a Reminder

Our new book selections are now up over on Miles to Go, our online book club. Remember, stretch yourself!

Why "Vim and Vinegar?"

Our name, "Vim and Vinegar," is a common and, at least in this case, intentional malapropism. Whether we are toying with the phrase "vim and vigor" (ebullient vitality and energy) or "piss and vinegar" (vigor and aggressive energy), we leave to the reader to decide. Our position is that no one should spend too much time pondering the issue, as it is a distinction without a difference, depending on how the news of the day "inspires."

If, by reading this blurb, you hoped you'd find the answer to the question "Why read Vim and Vinegar," the answer is "because we write good."

Not a Lawyer

The following constitutes a disclaimer, not because it's really necessary, but because that's just the kind of society in which we live. I have a law degree, but I am not a lawyer and I'm certainly not your lawyer. My commentary on legal matters rarely, if ever, rises to the level of legal scholarship, but I frequently make use of the education I earned, which doesn't mean that I'm always right when it comes to my interpretation and/or understanding of the law. And in times such as these, that ought to be a given. In other words, you'll never see "V&V" cited in a legal brief or memo as authority for anything. This blog is my opinion, but not an official "legal opinion."
Sincerely,
Just Wondering
