Various

The PBS Supreme Court series did not look promising, compressing too much in a few hours, and (as usual) making us assume nothing much important happened before John Marshall. Sorta okay History Channel special fare. Meanwhile, Myra MacPherson's new bio on I.F. Stone is just too long. Good story, too much glorified (somewhat simplistic) historical filler. And, sad early end to Anna Nicole Smith.
