Judging from away messages and a few brief IM conversations, it seems as though Kyle, Rittle, Kenton, Matt, Mike, and Jason are getting a house together. If that list doesn’t put fear in the heart of kegged beer, I’m not sure what will. Christ… if the directors of Big Red Liquors are listening, they might [...]

This will almost certainly jinx any small hope I have of making it through the semester without getting called on, but I am going to mention that I did get called on in ConLaw today. It wasn’t bad, and the question was easy, so I didn’t screw it up too awfully. But it wasn’t really a [...]

If you don’t care [...]

After our daily reprogramming session Constitutional Law today, I was commenting to another student that I found it hard to take a lot of our Prof’s opinions seriously because she’s so heavily biased that I don’t know whether or not the opinion she’s professing is an objective one, agreed upon in a non-partisan manner by [...]

Two posts I saw today worth reading… First, Doug has some good comments on Racism/Prejudice and Scholarships: This isn’t affirmative action, racial quotas or anything compulsory. Someone has chosen to give a scholarship to a particular group. Christy isn’t a 1L, either. She’s being “discriminated” against that, too. Heck, all of the MBA students at the Kelley [...]

I’m having a little too much fun on AIM in property, I think: PeteTheNerd: That was the motto of my high school’s nudist club. OneCoolBookworm: your high school didn’t have a nudist club, did they? PeteTheNerd: Not officially. OneCoolBookworm: were you a member? OneCoolBookworm: are there photos? PeteTheNerd: Yes, but they cost lots of whales. OneCoolBookworm: hmmm…i have 2 dimes PeteTheNerd: Well, you [...]
