“What’s the point of having a blog if you’re not going to write about me?” ~Amanda (Yes, that is sarcasm. Mostly.) So, just in case the context clues over the past few weeks didn’t really register, I recently tricked an unsuspecting law school classmate of mine into dating me. This was no small trick, as I’m [...]
My guess is that they don’t have professionalism sessions at Suffolk University Law School, where the self-described “trust fund baby” who is the subject of this Boston Globe story got her JD. It would be an interesting exercise if everyone from IULaw posted who they think, in our class, is most likely to do something stupid [...]
This is a sad development in sports media. Bryant Gumbel not only said that winter Olympians were only “pseudo-athletes” but likened the lack of blacks at the games to a GOP Convention. So try not to laugh when someone says these are the world’s greatest athletes, despite a paucity of blacks that makes the Winter [...]
Jane Galt has a pretty good take on Paul Krugman today. I’ve made no secret of the fact that I’m not over-fond of Paul Krugman’s New York Times column. I don’t hate it on ideological grounds; I hate it for reasons of economic efficiency. Surely we have better uses for our nation’s tiny stock of really [...]
I’m a few days behind the tremendous furor created when Dick Cheney accidentally shot his hunting partner. I’ve been trying, really, to figure out what the BFD was. Sure, I know, when the VP shoots someone that’s news and when someone gets shot, that’s probably a noteworthy event of their week. But why has the [...]
Yeah, I’m disappeared. I’ll be back, but maybe not before Wednesday. (FMM will probably not be around until then, either) I’ve got some catching up to do with school work, projects, and taking care of some vehicular issues. And then there’s tomorrow. Singlehood Awareness Day. Or Valentine’s day. Whichever you prefer. No having any “singlehood” of [...]
Ok, look. This shit is pretty fucking weird. I mean, seriously, y’all… peeps? Bizarre. (see also an entry by Pinkston) Wouldn’t it be easier to just buy them a beer or go down on them in the library or something?
A selection of brief related away messages from my classmates: “blowing off some steam on a run, then back to the brief” “legal writing…tons of fun bullshit. someone please interrupt me from the misery” “Getting my brief on in the Eagle’s Nest” “Forget LRW. I am going to watch Gilmore Girls and eat Reeses instead.” “I think my [...]
This weekend I’ll be in Charlotte at my first tournament of the spring with the IU Ultimate team. IU is ranked #24 in the nation right now, and we’ve got some tough competition this weekend, but nothing we can’t handle if we play hard and stay focused. The college ultimate community is generally slow to [...]
Yesterday we received an email from our dean of students which included a paragraph on blogging, to wit: 4. Potential Blogging Issue: It is clear that several of you have your own Blogs. Rather than e-mailing each of you individually (these are not hard to find), I thought I would mention [...]
