Everything you need to know about the Mac versus Windows debate can be summed up very quickly in this post by Scott Adams about his idea that Bill Gates should run for president. Adams writes: The man took one look at capitalism and beat it like a 14-year old boy with unrestricted Internet [...]

Thanks to Melinda, an old college friend, I won again on Blingo… I was starting to think I was going to go the entire month of November with no Blingo goodies. That would’ve been sad. I’ve now won 12 times (six on my own, six through friends). If you want to start winning cool stuff on [...]

I’d guess that 3/4 of my female readership has luffa sponges hanging around their bathrooms. I’d guess that virtually all of you think that these things come from the ocean. Would you believe me if I told you that these actually come from a vegetable? No? Well… would you believe this person? For the third [...]

…I’m turning 25 again this year because I don’t really feel like turning 26. Mike Shula’s firing was: a) Not a good present, b) A horrible mistake, and c) the fault of a horde of Alabama fans who don’t understand football. I don’t like it. Thanks for all of the birthday well-wishes, facebook wall posts, blog entries, [...]

How does a person whose only real legal skill is oral argumentation submit one of the top 16 briefs on his issue in a moot court competition and not advance to the octofinals? Who knows, but that’s exactly what I did. It would make sense to me if I had gotten oral honors and not advanced, [...]

The snarky asshole in me finds this quote from Justice Roberts pretty funny… Not a single person has voted for me and if we don’t like what the people in Congress do we can get rid of them, you know, if you don’t like what I do, it’s kind of too bad. Of [...]

Toot toot! All aboard the crazy train! Next stop: Heartbreak City and Unemploymentsville. I’ve tried my best to keep my comments to myself… or at least between me and the few other people I know who read TAN. Unfortunately, I no longer have any interest in that. Why? Because she has lost. her. mind. Now, I’ve talked about [...]

What’s been going on in my life lately? WHO CARES! Moot court is finished. At least for the fall. Octofinalists are announced on the 17th. Unlike some folks, I am not playing it off as though I don’t want to advance or don’t care. I’d like to advance. I won’t lose any sleep over it if [...]

You know what they say about folks who are quick to jump to conclusions about the honesty of others or accuse them of cheating… the number and severity of allegations of Republicans “stealing the election” in the past six years have been outrageous… and, as one might expect, the allegations by the left against the [...]

A similar article could be written from the other side of the aisle, but it’s easier to write it this way since we have (at least as of today) a Republican controlled legislature and executive branch. I understand why people would join facebook groups like the one’s titled “F*ck Bush”1. The reason, as I understand it, [...]
