Flipper

1. Orange Wifebeater: $6
2. 4 years of public university tuition after scholarship: $2k
3. Coke Bottle glasses discarded for new metro looking frames: $30
4. New wardrobe to shake townie image: $300
5. Setting yourself back 5 years of hard work in 5 hours by throwing raw fish fillets all over your condo while blacked out.

Priceless...

I woulont say im missing it Bob

Memorable thing that happened over the break:

I took my girl to her first ever sushi bar and ordered all kinds of good sushi. She loved it. Radeezy, although not present, was so worked up about not going with us, he purchased 5 pounds of fish filets and decorated his condo in the pearl with them after blacking out from drinking. So now if you go to his pad, the fishy smell can finally be blamed on the fish. Dare I say Rehab anyone?

PS. Im sick and have too much to study, so dont expect too much posting.

PSS. Screw you if you read this blog and comment anonymous.

Twas a fun 10 days with the little lady. Ate lots of turkey, saw the sights. It was good having two of my lady and Ares here to share thanksgiving with. Now back to the books. This will be a rough three weeks, but once its done, I will be halfway done with law school.

Happy Turkey Day Everybody

You Are The Stuffing

You're complicated and complex, yet all your pieces fit together.People miss you if you're gone - but they're not sure why.

What Part of Thanksgiving Are You?

Happy

The Woman is here and life is good...

Brain Puzzler

Why does writing on the bathroom wall only address sex and politics?

Blasted

Things I highly reccomend you abstain from:

1. Surfing the net during class.
2. Surfing the net during class while having only skimmed a case.
3. Getting called on by tough prof that is out for blood.
4. Asking the prof which page the case is on when he calls on you.
5. Saying i dont know to his first 5 questions.
6. Having brilliant co counsel elected on your behalf because of your gross incompetence.
7. Spending the rest of the day at the law school being sarcastically congratulated by overachieving 1L's who think you are a moron.
8. Capping of this wonderful day with cheap Chinese food.

It takes two

The number two is significant today in many ways:

1. Only Two days till my princess arrives.
2. Radeezy will tell each person he talks to today that he lives in the pearl. Twice.
3. Snowy will wake up and realize that his body is only number two, behind Petey.
4. Puddles will wish he had gone number two on the sleeping porch so his nickname wouldnt be puddles.
5. CW will exclaim that he is not number 2, but actually number 1 in the category of best litigator while wearing chaps.
6. Ares.. well, this is a kids blog and you already know where im going with this. See #4 for inspiration.
7. The number of minutes I have wasted typing this blog.

And then there were three...

The countdown is coming to our final three. No, Snowy, not the countdown for the top three roid freaks of the Teke house. Im talking about 3 days till my princess arrives. I cant wait. In fact Radeezy was so excited about my excitement, he crashed his car. 10 minutes later, he left the scene of the accident with a neckache and the other accident victims knew he lived in a condo in the pearl. Im guessing its the third thing he says to Abogada right after "Nice to meet you, and Too bad Alex snagged you." Puddles appears to have dropped of the face of this earth, or in other words, he is now a typical Californian and thinks there are no other states in the US.CW is still the best texan litigator stuck in a cold midwest metropolis, and im sure the judges were impressed by the 30 gallon hat he wore during the entire trial. The cap gun solidified the authenticity. Did I leave anyone else out?

Retraction

It is not everyday that you will get a public retraction from such a famous news and entertainment source. But here at 2Cents we aim to please, and want only to disseminate correct information. We would hereby like to retract our earlier statement that Abogada likes David Hasselhoff. Our mistake. In fact when she said that she liked David Hasselhoff, in actuality, she really mean to say David Duchovny (pronounced Duke of Knee). Unfortunately, being the kind boyfriend, I willingly took back the David Hasselhoff chaps and matching chest hair. Alas, the costume shop would not take it back due to the fact that that the fake chest hair was missing. Now im not saying that I pranced around the room wearing fake chest hair and pink underwear while impersonating the finest talent to grace Baywatch's set, but you get the picture.

Needless to say, I will still be showing up at the airport, sans Hasselhoff costume, but unless you have superglue remover, the chest hair is here to stay.

I am late for class.

4 days

My chick really loves David Hasselhoff so Ive been at the costume shop looking for a costume to wear while greeting her at the airport on Saturday.

In the meantime I have been outlining like crazy. This term I am making my own outlines, which is far different than I have done in the past. Part of the reason for this is my school doesnt have good SBA outlines like my former. I have nothing to rely on here except my own 2 cents (pardon the pun). The pressure appears to be mounting, but nothing makes for a good stress reliever like having your hot girlfriend fly in from Michigan for ten days to shower me with gifts, kisses, and Evidence notes.

Anyway, I hope she likes the outfit. Back to studying.

Reason # 1,233 why I love my girlfriend

She's cool under pressure. She's the only law student I know that isn't worried about Evidence. That's talent folks.

Take a walk on the wild side (Not the marky mark song)

I would much prefer if the Federal Rules of Evidence were really the Feral Rules of Evidence like I typed in class today. Maybe then the class would be more interesting, or we would have been given a prof that had a pulse on his last doctor visit.

The best damn litigators period.

Props to my boy Chris Wall and his girl Carly for winning the Moot Court Competition. 1st place out of 88 teams is something to be really proud about. Congrats!

Rant

The absolute thing I hate the most about becoming a lawyer is not being able to turn it off when I'm not supposed to use it.

Fin

Does a nervous breakdown actually have to be manifested outwardly to occur? Law school has its moments when you cannot decipher whether you are really crazy or just imagining that your are as a result of the stress from studying.

Im not really sure, but I think I have lost it.

You are girly man

There are few things funnier than walking into the restroom and catching a law student flexing in front of the mirror.

Can you smell the holidays?

"The holidays at Starbucks are all about enjoying traditions and connecting with friends and family," said Jim Alling, president of Starbucks North America. "For our customers, that means gathering at their local Starbucks coffeehouse to connect over a hot cup of Starbucks(R) Christmas Blend coffee in our signature red cups to savor the warmth, magic and reprieve that are found there during the holidays."

Nothing unites a family like overcharging for coffee so that they go broke and forced to live together. How ingenious. NOW SHELL OUT 5 BUCKS FOR A LATTE BITCHES.

Who smokes the bluntz.. We smokes the bluntz

Lets throw another one into the mix. Lets say that Kanye West, Terell Owens, and Tom Cruise were locked in a room and had to fight. Who wins? Assume Kanye can only use lyrical bombs, Tom Cruise can only spout Scientology prose, and Terell Owens is limbless but not bleeding.

AN ALbum Cover

Who is more annoying? Kanye Ingoramus West or Terell STFU Owens

Discuss.

I believe the french call it cliche

I would say that 2L is no different of a hell than 1L but that would be old hat. I would also say that waiting for a job offer when everyone else around already has one is equally shitty. The last thing I want to do is turn this blog into a forum for my bitching and moaning.

Winning the lottery

Having a long distance relationship is hard. But when you meet the right woman, it can become the very thing you look forward to the most in life. I am fortunate to have met the hottest, sweetest cheerleader/lawstudent who just so happens to be visiting me in 10 days. As if that wasnt the cool enough already, she is staying for 10 days also. It will be cool to introduce her to my family and friends, and spend Turkey day with her. I cant wait...

I wont stand for Cooley Bashing

Feel free to prank this sorry fuck.

25k

The 25,000th reader gets dinner for two with Snowy. Perhaps a nice romantic dinner in the Eiffel Tower?

Red Balls

Im getting to the point now where caffeine just wont cut it. Any suggestions?

In the closet

I just finished reading an illegal immigrant case and concurred with the decision. Then i looked at who wrote it. Rehnquist. Im even having a hard time convincing myself these days. Here's the bait piggies. Or should I say elephants?

caffeine

is a hell of a drug

Dog Tired

Life is good, and getting better fast. My woman is coming to visit for 10 days in less than two weeks. How cool is that?

Spent the weekend in Seattle with Ares and Radeezy. It was good to see Ares as its been almost 8 months since we left our old law school to transfer. It was also kind of cool seeing what would have been my apartment had I gone to school up there. Nevertheless, the Beavers kicked the crap outta the Huskies, even if it was only with field goals. Probably the wettest game ive been to.

Radeezy thought it would be fun to ruffle up some old guys talking shit to him. Little did he know he would cut his finger slapping a 55 year old man. Radeezy, here's to you for being the silver ruffian. If I ever get jumped by a gang of octegenarians, im calling you first to protect me.

Ares did his part in supporting the Beavs by running his mouth also. Its nice to see someone put some love in another conference. Thanks for a fun weekend Bro.

Abogada, thanks for the conversation saturday night. One of my all time favorites.

Found a new accoustic version of November rain, and a glass full of coffee.

Life is good.

HOME DEPOsition

DENVER, Colorado (AP) -- Home Depot was sued by a shopper from a Kentucky store who claims he got stuck to a restroom toilet seat because a prankster had smeared it with glue.

Bob Dougherty, 57, accused employees of ignoring his cries for help for about 15 minutes because they thought he was kidding.

"They left me there, going through all that stress," Dougherty told The Daily Camera, of Boulder. "They just let me rot."

The lawsuit, filed Friday, said Dougherty was recovering from heart bypass surgery and thought he was having a heart attack when he got stuck at the store in Louisville, Colorado, on the day before Halloween 2003.

A store employee who heard him calling for help informed the head clerk by radio, but the head clerk "believed it to be a hoax," the lawsuit said.


The lawsuit said store officials called for an ambulance after about 15 minutes.

Paramedics unbolted the toilet seat, and Dougherty, "frightened and humiliated," passed out as they wheeled him out of the store, court papers said. The toilet seat separated from his skin, leaving abrasions.

"This is not Home Depot's fault," Dougherty said. "But I am blaming them for letting me hang in there and just ignoring me."

college

The hardest part of growing up is realizing that not all of your friends are along for the ride. Some prefer to keep reliving their college days perpetually. Eventually you have to cut the cord and when you finally do, life will change. Probably for the better. I love my college friends, but the one's who still want to live it get less of my time. The few who want to make their lives wholesome and productive get the little free time I have when im not in school. Why couldn't I have stayed a Toys r us kid?

Doctor

My Dr. stood me up today due to "weather" related delays. I will show you weather related. I think due to the "weather" I will be emailing him the questions I had, and will not be seeing him for my last $300 pointless visit. And next time i break my leg, i will just look online on how to fix it. If I havent said it before, if you can make it through your first year of law school, you basically have the authority to do anything.

Sweater Vested Remainder

I passed by a studyroom and saw some 1L's doing some future interest problems on the whiteboard. How f'ing thankful am I that I got through it? Its crazy to think a year ago at this time that was little ol' me doing the same thing. How f'ing pointless..

Bumper sticker for GWB

"WOULD SOMEONE PLEASE GIVE HIM A BLOW JOB SO WE CAN
HAVE HIM IMPEACHED?"

How you know you have a good woman

When she quotes Guns N Roses during pillow talk. That is hot.

Frazzle Rock

The 1L's are freaking out. Two weeks ago they were all happy, going out 5 days a week, lest they study for a brief second before class. Now they are scared shitless with the reality that exams are less than 5 weeks away. I probably didn't help things much by turning in my client letter and last memo in to my writing teacher 3 weeks early. My class pretty much hates me for that and guess what. I dont care. I have 5 weeks to study 4 classes.
