Dear GM,

Shut your stupid mouth up about the mid-sized H3. 20 MPG is not an accomplishment it is a crime. You closed the EV1 plant a month after you bought the hummer. I hate you, and will never own a GM car.

Thanks,
Patrick

I am a total research nerd. I absolutely love my Legal Research and Writing Class. I think part of it is that I can see the result of my effort, and there is closer to being a right answer than in a lot of classes. Definitely part of it is the fact that I am good at it. I have a lot of my classmates in their searches, and it is fun for me. I have ( Read more... )

I was just flipping through channels and witnessed something that I had to come comment on. Ann Coulter was as usual on Fox [news] and actually suggested that there were "too many people voting" and that there should be a poll tax to pay for a literacy exam ( Read more... )

So I am a bit shocked, something happened today that hasn't happened for me in the longest time- MTV introduced me to a great new band. What is more, it is a band that my brother Kirk (shonuff) wasn't yet familiar with ( Read more... )

Today was my first day of classes as a Law Student, and I have to say it could well be my best day of classes as a student ever. I was so anxious last night going into today, really nervous about not really having a clue what was going on. I seem to have underestimated myself. I had three classes today: Torts, Civil Procedure, and Legal Writing and ( Read more... )

Had my first day of orientation today. It was probably pretty close to what you expect it to be. I did get this cool control card that gets me access to the building(s) and to the library after hours, so that was cool. Otherwise, not much information was given. Oh, I did find out how Law Review and Journal of Environment and Land Use positions are ( Read more... )

Arthur C. Clarke wrote that "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." Now, maybe it is because we are a part of such a wired generation, but I never fully bought into the meaning of that statement. My friends, I am sure that technology is much more advanced than what I have just witnessed, but this blew my mind. I got ( Read more... )
