Humiliation →
While avoiding doing work for which I get paid, I was clicking my way around the interwebs and found this fun article about What Is Your Cultural Shame. Which classic cultural piece (in the form…
While We Do Not Sleep We Find That It Is Always... →
I haven’t been sleeping well recently. Ever since the death flu of death and pain and destruction™ where I had to self-medicate myself into a regular sleep schedule so I’d be able to study during…
Radin
Shoulda gone to see Josh Radin tonight. Gah.
iDisk v DropBox →
When I bought my most recent computer, a macbook, last year, I signed up for .mac, or what’s now known as MobileMe. In short, the program syncs up your contacts, your .mac emails, and your…
Where ProRep Dies and Dropbox Lives →
ProRep and Legal Methods are officially done and over with. The MPRE is looming over the horizon, but I will cross that little bridge once I come to it. For the time being, the name of the game…
Strong Quarter for Sales at Amazon - NYTimes.com →
You’re welcome, Amazon! Damn you for taking all my money!
Stops Time. Freeze Ray. Tell Your Friends →
It has been a strange week so far. The Death Flu of Death and Pain and Destruction™ is not as bad as it was Sunday/Monday but it’s still here with me and that really worries me. The ProRep final is…
Demons in the Night →
One of my favorite discussions with friends and strangers is based on a simple question: Superman or Batman? Superman is a god. He fell from the heavens to live amongst us mortals. He is…
Where We Sing of Freeze Rays →
Dr. Horrible is, if anything, earnest. Lacking in his execution of world conquest? Perhaps. Sweet and open enough to make you want to root for and — believe it or not — sing with the super…
Jakob Dylan - This End of the Telescope →
Jakob Dylan – This End of the Telescope I was born in the Summer of Sam —
Smaller and sooner than planned —
In the spitting image of a man
Raised by wolves on the fat of the land.

Make The Badness Stop →
Dear flu gods, Whatever it was that I did to upset you and cause you to shower your wrath upon my helpless immune system, I’m really really really really sorry. Please make the hurting stop and…

This reminds me of my friend Dave’s bachelor party…except we were wearing pants instead of soccer shorts.
Hopeline →
Getting back into the swing of things on 12minds, so bear with me with all the YouTube vids. However, if you can give anything to these guys, please do so.
Western Spaghetti →
Really cute.
The Films and The Runs
Am considering driving down to DC just to watch a couple of movies that aren’t playing up here.
The Fall
Up the Yangtze
Hors de Prix
The ex blocked me off of everything (goodreads, facebook, gchat, etc) last week. Am picking up more running as a result to fight off freaking out/stress, etc. For the best? Who knows at this point in time…
If anything, at least my mileage is up.
Arguments →
We had oral arguments yesterday for my appellate-level methods class and while I love arguing before the judges, I also wonder if I’m really built for this kind of thing. The days of prepping, the…
Gone Prepping →
Will be out of pocket for the next two days. Subsequently, a discussion on the the resulting victory or defeat.

So ridiculously true (except in my case, the sex part will sadly be the tiniest sliver of a spot). Damn law school.
Totus →
Longer post about this is being written (though likely never to be posted) but I just wanted to say this: I cannot believe — I don’t know how to believe — in the concept of the Fallen world. It…
Where We Speak Ill Of Hancock →
About as far back as I can remember, I have been fascinated by comic books and superheroes. I’ve loved their stories of heroic acts, their conflicts with super-villains, their alter-egos, and their…
Where We Remember →
Strange and disconcerting dreams last night: Looking for things that were once known but now forgotten; new enemies are made and trust is placed on new friends; where I finally dance with the…
Regina Spektor - On the Radio →
I can’t quite remember how I first found Regina Spektor, but it was sometime in the past two years during my concert-once-a-week phase. Her concert was amazing and she seems like such a sweet,…
This Is Gonna Be A Good One →
Now, I love the origins concept generally (which is probably why I like Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade so much) and I really enjoyed Casino Royale. And while the title is lame (but it has a…
