Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I don't know from BARBRI, but is there any way you can set up a study group kind of deal with classmates who are doing the self-study, to get some of the hivemind benefits even though you can't go to a regular class?

It's only 10:30am and already I'm so painfully bored. But apparently not bored enough to read the e-mail the help desk guy keeps forwarding me, because apparently helping people does not fall under his purview as help desk guy.

Except it turns out I am that bored, and help desk guy doesn't know how to use the site he's technical support for, which no doubt explains why he's always passing stuff off on me.

Somewhere out there, some monkeys just finished typing King Lear.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That Project Greenlight article was great, but isn't it not on until tomorrow night?

Good luck with the bar, Stephanie.

What is even happening?

You are thinking of the humunculous theory (I don't guarantee the spelling on that one, btw). And as to which society, well, um, ours (meaning the West); the theory is also fairly modern AFAIK (meaning the Enlightenment, not Ancient Greece or some such).

It was also theorized that the male's left testicle produced girls and the right produced boys, so if you wanted to ensure the sex of your baby, you tied off the undesired testicle. Needless to say, this technique was flawed.

Thank you, Burrell.

I'll re-ask the other question I asked in Bitches, just because there's a slightly different group, here. Does anyone know of a site that might have a table or list of the various theories? I'm thinking something like The Romans thought... The Celts thought... The people of India thought... etc. Google has given me only a smidgen of--I can't even call it love--it's teased me, basically.

By the way, I'm not asking for anything important. I am just wondering. Thanks again, everyone.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I have a phone interview at 10. It's for a job I'm not sure I want, least of all because I didn't catch the company name when she called me to set it up yesterday. Oops.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Real World Metropolis

This one threw me because I was expecting German dystopia, and got superheroes.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I've signed up for BARBRI's "self-study" program.

I used Micromash, which is another self-study program. I put fewer hours in than the Bar-Bri people and still passed. It's doable. But the thing that worked for me: three weeks straight of making flashcards. Flashcards, flashcards, flashcards!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Real World Metropolis

Aquaman gets no respect.

But that's OK, because he sucks.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Good luck with that, Dana.

OK, it's really too late to ask this question, but: I left a quiche in my turned-off oven for like 7 hours yesterday. Do you think it would go bad? I'm hoping not, since I just ate part of it.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Oh, that's cool; I didn't know that. But you don't live here, right?

Correct. I'm a federal employee in DC, living in the VA suburbs. For employee-attorneys, the feds only want you to have a bar membership in some state. There are actually several UNC alums/NC bar members around here (fitting, since it's banking regulation).
