I apologize for the ‘radio silence’ the past… well… month, really, but I’ve just needed some time to sort things out. You see, I moved into a new place, started school, got a new computer (yes, another new computer), and have been doing all of the other things that, as Pete, I am known to [...]
So I’ve advanced into the Sweet 16 of the Ladies… Hot Blogger Bracket. This is a good thing, I suppose. The bad thing, however, is that my wee #9 seed has drawn a #1 seed. I cannot win this round and advance into the elite 8 (where I will almost surely get my rear handed [...]
A while back, the FanHouse folks got an email about some “Hot Blogger” competition being put on by the gals at Ladies… and we were encouraged to participate. I was torn. On the one hand, I’ve always been pretty good looking for a computer nerd. On the other, these are all sports bloggers, so I could very easily be out [...]
So over at Faith’s blog she’s participating in some damn meme, and since we all know how much I hate them… here are the rules that were laid out: Leave me a comment saying, “Interview me.” I respond by asking you five personal questions so I can get to know you better. If [...]
I was tagged in a guilty pleasures meme and since we all know that I don’t participate in these sorts of trite things, here goes: GuiltWhat’s yours?Explain yourself! Culinary Chocolate Milk I love this stuff. At Mississippi State the chocolate milk in the dining hall comes from real cows… [...]
A few weeks ago, I talked about why anonymous blogging just doesn’t work. A commenter said “If a person cares anything about their future in the legal profession, maybe anonymous blogging is the way to go.” Now, there are a whole host of underlying assumptions to that statement. One, of course, is the assumption that [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
First off… I noticed that I posted my 2,000th post last month. When I celebrated #1,000 Kevin wished that my 2,000th would come “from some hoity-toity law school campus with two hot blondes hanging on either arm.” Well… I am at Law School (though not so hoity-toity) and I’ve got two hot blondes… so [...]
My brain, I’ve decided, is a hamster. It’s small, but it simply is not happy if it is not scurrying around in 100 directions. That said, I thought I would point out that there’s a new journal/blog/e-zine type thing coming to the internets. Consortium: The Journal of Legal Nonsense is hoping to compile the wisdom [...]
