You can add my name to the list of guys who said “Noooo kidding.” When they heard that Lance Bass is gay. This should resolve some long-forgotten, but extremely bitter, arguments between guys with a working Gay-dar and their blind-to-reality significant others. Go ahead and post your name in the comments if you didn’t need to be [...]

Dear Pete, I’m a rising 2L and VERY excited about the prospect of all the fresh meat — I mean, new 1L colleagues — who will soon join us. Problem is, I’m a socially awkward law student with no idea how to interact with people in a social [...]

We made it back safely from camping. The bears did not eat us, but that is mainly because I was around to scare them off. They saw me chopping firewood like a big manly-man and realized that they better not mess with us. Amanda says it is because there are no bears in Hoosier National [...]

So, uh, Amanda has decided that we are going camping. This weekend. Leaving in a few hours. I’m looking forward to it, even if it does mean leaving my computer for more than a few hours at a stretch. I’m not entirely sure where we’re going camping — she might have told me, but I’m notoriously [...]

Yes, I know. Other people have done this. Done it to death. Done it better. That’s never stopped me before, and it’s not going to stop me now. Because… well… these are some of the people I’ve met. Odds are good that you’ll meet them to if you go to law school. It’s not a [...]

The 2006 ESPYs were good to the Tide family. Not unexpectedly, WR Tyrone Prothro won the award for play of the year… and why not? It was the single best catch in the history of the game. The Immaculate Reception has nothing on The Catch. See for yourself: Best. Catch. Ever. Alabama Alumnus Shaun Alexander won two [...]

The Peoples’ Champions down on the plains are in for a little trouble with the NCAA, I think. I’m not going to gloat because, for starters, this is what those trailer-dwelling, championship envying rednecks have coming to them after spending years having a little too much fun at the expense of Alabama and the heavy-handed sanctions [...]

These are some spoofs on the new Mac ads… I love it. The last one is classic.

Public schooling in America is in trouble because… The parents don’t care. The students come from broken families. There’s not enough money. Be very careful if you even think of saying it’s the fault of the teachers or unions. It’s a very unpopular thing to say and teachers will come out of the woodwork to blame someone else. But for [...]

And not a moment too soon. I am not much of a soccer fan. It is marginally fun to play but, like baseball, is horribly boring to watch. Now, of course, this is where everyone steps in and informs me that it is NOT boring, I simply don’t understand the sport. Uh huh. I understand baseball as [...]
