On August 10, 2011, I ran an item on prejudice that dealt more specifically with the history of religious bias in the US. I've dealt with the same story elsewhere on this blog, but this might be the first time I ran an item on it.
Ostensibly exploring the practice of law before the internet. Heck, before good highways for that matter.

Monday Morning Repeats for the week of January 23, 2011
I'm going to run two of these this week. Here's the first, which is one that has been a common theme here over the years:
When horses were a major economic factor.
And here's a second, which has been as well:
Some things don't change that much.
The appearance of some things in regard to my office actually has changed in recent years. The little desk that once held my computer has been replaced by a century old "secretary" that my mom, and then me, inherited in turn.

Monday Morning Repeats. An Election Recollection Issue. The best post of the week of November 5, 2017.
We are running two Monday Morning repeats today, for two reasons.
One is that we missed last weeks, so we're making up for it.
The other is that this is suddenly timely again, but likely forgotten.
Lex Anteinternet: Go Donna! In a week of revelations, Donna Brazile...
Had Brazile had her way, the recent election probably would have been on whether or not to reelect Joe Biden. . . and his opponent probably would have been a much younger Republican.

Monday Morning Repeats for the week of June 28, 2009. 1920, law, and the Geology Museum
A repeat from over a decade ago that sounds like it could have been written now:
1920, law, and the Geology Museum
It's odd to see that eleven years ago I was then noting the near centennial, but not that near, of the law school's founding. I also see that's when I learned of its age.
And the budget problems UW was then having. . . well they're worse now.
Indeed, frankly, everything about the this topic has grown worse over the past decade. Wyoming's economy is showing real systemic problems, and its government by extension. Politics has become more polarized. The university is suffering from the problems of the pandemic. And the law school's purpose has become questionable in the wake of the UBE.

Monday Morning Repeat from the week of May 2, 2009.
This blog has certain reoccurring topics that get posted on a weekly basis, more or less. The one that is most frequently posted is the Sunday Morning Scene series, but there are others, including Monday at the Bar (fairly rarely posted), Friday Farming, Poster Saturday and the like.
We're starting a new one here in an effort to perhaps get some old traction on older threads. That is, to bring them back up now that this blog has some readership, which of course at first it really did not.
A lot of the themes at first introduced in these old posts were, of course, later much more developed. None the less, as this version of the blog has been running over a decade, we'll cast some light on some of these older topics and hope that they get a second look. We'll not pick more than one out from any one week during which it originally ran.
Our first one:
Transportation, late 19th Century
When we do this, we should note, we're not going to repost the entire thread. If it looks interesting, people will have to hit on the link and view it, which I hope they do, and I hope, as always, some comment.
