Harry Potter and the Law, Qui-Gon Jinn and the Jedi

Happy birthday to the lovely bellatook, and best wishes for a wonderful year to come.

* The Harry Potter and the Law issue of Texas Wesleyan Law Review is now online. Its excellent essays are worth a read, including "Making Legal Space for Moral Choice" by my friend Andy Morriss of Case Western Reserve University School of Law, and "Harry Potter and the Miserable Ministry of Magic" by Benjamin H. Barton of University of Tennessee College of Law, among others.

* As some of you already know from past posts, I am greatly interested in the meaning of the Star Wars Jedi Qui-Gon Jinn. I heard a rumor that the website Qui-Gon Online, which includes some excellent essays on the character, among other items of interest, may soon be going offline. So, if you're interested, be sure to visit it soon!

Oh. That looks... *AWESOME* :::gasp:::

...may soon be going offline.

Bummer - I'm not familiar with it but it's always a shame to see a quality site disappear. :-(

Yep, there's some very good stuff there!

I went to the Qui-Gon online site and had a look. It's fascinating! Thanks for the heads up, I have copied one article that looks excellent, and I shall have a look at some others while I still can.

You're most welcome: I'm so glad it's of interest to you.

Qui Gon is seriously one of the best things to ever happen to Star Wars.

You know, apart from Star Wars itself.

I love that you're a Qui Gon fangirl. :)

Well said indeed!

I love that you're a Qui Gon fangirl. :)

I even have the official "gentle giant" bust of Qui-Gon; you know, the one with his hand half-raised, that looks as if he can't decide whether he's blessing someone or hailing a cab. ;)

FYI, I've got another new post about him at a community over here if you're interested.

I love it that you love him, too!
