A few months ago I posted a call for articles for a new “law” journal (”law journal”?, law “journal”?). Well, we finally got our act together and finished up the first issue. For the most part, when I wasn’t at trial team practice, I was working on Consortium… and now that’s done. You can see the [...]
I don’t know where I found this video… but it is infuriating. (Warning: if watching videos of basic math being done on a whiteboard makes you nauseous, you might want to skip the video) Of the three “alternate” methods, the only one I think that can have a reasonable argument made for it is the second [...]
Lots of cool links have come through my RSS reader over the past few days, so I thought I’d share some of them. This insurance company is a special kinds of stupid — Apparently, because of some inane limitation in their software, they think that having children one month apart is more likely than having twins. [...]
So originally I had planned to start doing AskPete replies as videoblogs. Unfortunately, my camera disappeared at a party last week and I have no other reliable way to do video… so this will have to suffice. Pete, What is the best way to get revenge on my really awful ex? [...]
I’ve been blogging regularly since early 2001, and sporadically since several years before that. I’ve been reading other blogs for about as long. Over that period of time I’ve read countless anonymous blogs, and I’m always amazed at how brazen these folks are. A recent encounter, about which I’ll have much more in a different [...]
The last post is turning out like most online debates with Dizzy do: lots of goalpost moving, argument shifting, and the sticking of various heads in the sand… so let’s talk about something else: First of all: last night’s conference championship games? The only possible way that this could be worse is if Dallas was there [...]
I don’t read Dizzy’s Blog, except in those instances when it’s linked by someone like Doug, which it has been a few times in the last week or so… and it looks like it’s SSDD over there. Generally, it’s hundreds upon hundreds of words about such riveting things as: why all guys at law school are [...]
So, after more than a month off, I actually had to go back to class today. This was a shock to my system because I think I almost forgot what it was like. It wasn’t as bad as I remembered it, though I really do abhor being forced to get up any time before noon. A [...]
After getting flooded with spam, I disabled the AskPete form… but since I was adding CAPTCHA to a few other sites, I thought I’d go ahead and update the AskPete form, too. I realize that many of you have not known what to do with your lives since I’ve been off of the advice circuit, so [...]
The trial team has been selected, and I made it, which I’m happy about. I’m an alternate, which is obviously not as good as being first-string, but what can you do? There were a lot of extremely talented people at the mock trial competition who did very well, and I didn’t do as much prep [...]
