"so bright, and they match"

these people scare me. they are homeschooled and indoctrinated with their parent's beliefs, and they come here and have those same ideas reinforced over and over again. i believe in to each his (and her) own, but i sure as hell don't want any of them representing me in government.

my personal favorite is "Ben Adams, who sent out a nine-page e-mail to the entire student body before the spring formal reminding the girls to dress modestly. 'Lust is sin,' it said. 'It is sin for you to tempt us. It is . . . unloving. Unsisterly. Un-Christlike.'" i'd love to see him let loose in panama city for spring break.

then there's the "rebel" who says, "'A lot of people here, if they lose control—even for a second—they have a breakdown.' Sometimes, instead of going to church, Morgan sits in her car alone and listens to sermons on the radio." awesome. i heart control freaks.

i also love that some people tried to keep out women and there are no black students. and that they downplay their connection to the school in dc. be scared people. be very scared.

only in north carolina

some 17 year old is accused of raping a dog. the dog later died from internal bleeding associated with the rape. he also molested some little girls. which seems to be an afterthought in the article. then again, as one of my friends just pointed out, this is fox news.

gawker is hilarious today

i just cracked up in the middle of my bar class and got some very rude stares. however, i think this diatribe on chris noth and his imaginary friend is hilarious and i'm not afraid to laugh out loud.

blind item

if everyone in the world knows who you're referring to, is it really a blind item? for those who aren't subscribers, it reads, " WHICH top leading man interviewed three different starlets for the job of girlfriend/future wife before picking his new beloved? "Mark my words: They'll have a baby," said our source. "Maybe he or she will be conceived in a petri dish, but they'll procreate"

if you're still wondering, gawker has a funny photo here.

hee hee

it's been ages since i watched the daily show, and now i remember why i love it so much. i'm paraphrasing here, cause my router hasn't come in the mail yet, and therefore i cannot rewind with my beloved tivo. "when you think about the european union....nah, i'm just kidding. you don't think about the european union."

bar class

today's professor is pretty good. any prof who can reference and sing bobby brown's my perogative has my vote. rule of the day: fertile octogenarian rule aka the larry king rule. this rule presumes that a person is fertile, no matter what his or her age. ah, property. love ya.

raich's in

and i'm not surprised by the outcome. haven't read it yet, but you can find justice stevens' majority opinion upholding government's ability to regulate intrastate medical marijuana here.

law school points

i am in the midst of redeeming my westlaw and lexis points. i mainly used westlaw throughout law school, but boy was that a mistake. lexis has a way larger selection. so...my advice to any law students out there is to get as many points as you can, preferably on lexis, but just suck it up and log on to both. there's some cool shit out there. i just got a microwave and paper shredder from westlaw, and now i'm trying to decide what to do w/ my piddly 2800 points on lexis. i can't even afford the first season of 24 on dvd. : (

bar class is a drag

i can't remember the last time i was this bored. every day, for over three hours, i watch a person lecture at me on boring subjects like new york practice while i fill in blanks. boooooooooooooooooooooooooo. i just can't keep my eyes from closing.
