Many folks ask me how I manage to come up with subjects to write about. My response is I wish I had more time, because I could do this full time. In fact, there’s really too much to cover every few weeks in just 750 words. Here’s some of what has come in since my last column:

The Citizens’ Ethics Advisory Board recently adopted a recommended decision on whether UConn football coach Randy Edsall violated the state code of ethics when he negotiated the hiring of his son to a $95,000 contract as an assistant coach. I got a call from the press for some commentary (I guess a lawyer ethics guy was next best to finding a state ethics guy) but demurred because I wanted to study the case before I shot my mouth off.
