While numerous voices on the left accuse the right of using terrorism to scare people to the voting booths, it seems pretty clear that the same thing has been going on, emanating from the enviro-fascists on the far left who seem to have convinced a large number of people that not only do people definitely [...]

I got all of the classes I wanted, despite the fact that Law & Psych and my section of Trial Ad was preferenced for 3Ls, and the evidence course was allegedly preferenced for people taking the package. For those of you scoring at home, that means my class list for next semester is: Trial Advocacy (Vaidik) Evidence [...]

Pete, I love women as love as the next guy, but I find myself having more and more sex with goats? What should I do? Apprehensive Animal Lover Dear Sicko: I understand that this is a serious problem for you. I understand that some of my friends from undergrad had a very similar problem involving goats and other quadrupeds. [...]

On Thursday, Rising 2Ls registered for our next semester classes. At some point in the not-too-distant past, a classmate of a friend of mine was much ado about the fact that her law school doesn’t have electronic registration. Neither do we, but that doesn’t seem to have been a problem. Anyway, since I know you [...]

Posted without commentary: kylewaldie: While it doesn’t change anything, I know I wasn’t the only person to wait until late in the tourny to decide to pay you: [Trustworthy 1L] didn’t pay you until Monday. Maybe next time you make a tournament, you should say that you have to pay before the tourny starts, not sometime [...]

Every sport and game has a compendium of rules, promulgated to keep the playing fields fair, make the games interesting, and give the fans of the losing team in any given contest an excuse. What really blows my mind, though, is how people think they can invent rules for fandom (or life in general). Take, for [...]

This PDF has been making the rounds lately. It’s a handwritten divorce complaint. It’s also funny as hell. My favorite part is right before his signature where this guy writes: “(Screw you, bitch, I filed first and your suit is subject to a plea in abatement) Respectfully submitted” [Sent to me by LawDawg}]

About a month ago, I posted about The Attractive Nuisance’s employment and LRAP problems. Today, TAN turns down a job offer, presumably because of it’s horrible location: close to home. Frankly, this is ridiculous. I think NYU’s Loan Repayment Assistance Program should just wash their hands of her at this point. She’s sucking money away from [...]

Apparently I hit a nerve with Pac-10 fans who seem to take issue with… lots of things. But Kyle got all pissy in the comments and did so in a very lengthy way, so I figured it would be more clear to respond to all of the comments in a full post instead of a [...]

So last night Florida whipped UCLA. It was pretty awesome. All this talk about the Big East? The ACC? Fuck that, SEC owned every other conference in the tourney and that’s pretty much the long and the short of it. Half of the final four? The National Champs? Good shit. Better than that, though, was the [...]
