A common question. I shut down in late September in an early show of solidarity with the WGA strike. Only recently did I realize that I've never made money from web content, nor do I ever expect to, so the blog's back on.

Look, spam, we both know the dollar isn't worth nearly that much. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you're trying to make me feel better instead of trying to screw me, but don't let it happen again.

Here is a fact: Girls like guys with a big schlong!

I hear you're trying to get into Contracts II for next semester. Is this true? How can I help?

As a matter of fact, that is the case. Drop me a line if you're planning on dropping it.

Always Clever

"It seems late in the day to notice to Erwin Chemerinsky is a prominent liberal," said John Jeffries, University of Virginia Law School dean. "That's been true for as long as I've known him. It's rather like discovering that Wilt Chamberlain was tall. How could you not know?"

I did another interview with my fly open today.

1Ls Say the Darnedest Things

Overheard in the last week:

• (Regarding Dandelion, Foxfield, etc.) "I'm not sure I have time for all these mandatory extra activities."
• "But isn't [law review] a lot of extra work?"
  "No."
  "Oh, ok."
• "I don't think they actually drink while they play softball."
• 1L #1: "I'm pretty sure this the right classroom. [Gestures at plaque reading "Wright Classroom."
  [Pause]
  1L #2: [Laughs hysterically.]
  

Adorable. Also, 1L #1, you may want to check out the offer over at TJ's. And don't ever let anyone tell you that puns aren't funny. Puns are always funny.
