As though the day weren’t going slowly enough already I logged in to check my bank account to find that I won the Direct Deposit lottery and my financial aid money has finally credited to my account. (Well, most of it) — this means that today I’m going to buy my laptop after class… which [...]
So I previously alluded to the fact that this weekend started on Thursday, too… and it was a pretty awesome weekend. Thursday there was a lot of talk about Karaoke at Bear’s. This was an interesting proposition because, a) we all have class on Friday and b) They have a few drinks which are large and [...]
Let’s recap today’s goings on in college football, shall we? First and foremost: Roll Tide. Spurrier can suck it. Almost as importantly, Florida beat Tennessee. Go Gators. Worthy of noting: Vandy is 3-0. That’s three wins in a row. For VANDERBILT. Go ‘Dores. I’m sad about the state of the Oklahoma program. WTF is going on!? I was sad to [...]
Last night before I left I told Kecia that I’d be home soon because I really didn’t think I was going to stay and drink for very long. I got home at 9:30… A.M.
News and notes for today. My weekly column Conventional Wisdom is up at fanblogs today. Yesterday in CivPro, Prof. Geyh, in referring to a case1 in which a man was shot in the face while waiting to unload a delivery “quoted” the company as saying “Just wait over there and the nice man with the shotgun [...]

Words/phrases will be underlined and highlighted (unless they’re links, in which case they’ll be italicized). THURSDAY Did [...]
There’s been no shortage of liberal bitching about the ‘poor’ (though you’ll see any number of perjorative adjectives used) federal response to Katrina. As you might guess… that bitching is, more or less, pure bullshit. It is, essentially, the left using the deaths caused by Katrina as a political bargaining chip. For starters, it’s important to [...]
What another great weekend it was in college football. Wake up the echoes, bitches… UMich gets PWN3D by Notre Dame. (But they’re still winners in their hearts) LSU Held on in Tempe, but ASU is just as good as I thought they’d be. Georgia scared me, but they won. Thank you, Georgia. Iowa got rocked by Iowa State. For [...]
Ryne passed along a nifty little experiment that a friend of his is running for his dissertation — it’s on working memory. It’s a little long and tedius… and it only works in Internet Explorer… but it’s kinda neat. Congratulations!! Your working memory span is: 7 This number is an estimate of the number of [...]
Oh lord. The lefties are at it again. It’s amazing how, if you want to see the bad in people, everything looks like a clear impeachment of their character. Take this for example: [Congressman Tom DeLay ®] likened their stay to being at camp and asked, “Now tell me the truth boys, is this kind of [...]
