Inter Alia: 3/20/05

And it appears all the other blawgers decided to take the day off from blogging which doesn't help any. They must be enthralled. It's just turtles people!

Seriously

Are there any other ways you would attend one of her shows?

Tessa Would Agree

I myself love Lexis for allowing you to exchange points for iTunes.

Congratulations!

To Stummy (AKA Macy) for going from a third-tier law school student on AP to getting a paid position with some law firm, doing some law work. Yup, she's come a long way. Good for her.

All you need to know is that it is wrong.

This Blog Has Won A Prize

I'll be taking suggestions/bribes/sexual favors for the choice.

E.McPan Does Hawaii

And she does the blogging equivalent of showing a vacation slideshow here and here. I'm bored.

I'm Effin' Scurred

Though I wouldn't mind getting in touch with someone's inner Lord if you know what I mean.

Astronauts No Longer Need To Live On Tang

Most Law Students (AKA The Socially Awkward/Unacceptable)

Should be encouraged to get themselves, and put to use, an iPod.

Now if I go missing for more than 11 hours, it's because I was on a "safari". If someone with a Russian accent calls me Sergei, it's because she is mistaken in her vodka induced stupor. If I should have a tiny scar on my arm, it's because this ex-marine and still felon decided to pick a fight with me at a bar with a broken Coors Light bottle - his mistake of course. And if I should go months without sex... well that part is readily accepted without elaborate explanation.

Excuse Me For Being A Conservative Prick

A brain-dead one at that. No wonder some conservatives have taken a liking to Schiavo.

Is this post in poor taste? Perhaps. Is it funny? Probably not. Has that ever stopped me before?

That last question is a rhetorical one so it won't be answered.

If I Could Travel Back In Time

Oh the advice I would ignore. Much to my detriment of course.

My (And About 1/12 Of The World's Population) Love Profile

Pisces - Your Love Profile

Your positive traits:

You're very tuned into your lover's feelings - and always doing something caring.
Sweetness - you're the most romantic person your parnter has ever met.
You get easily swept away and are a total delight to fall in love with.

Your negative traits:

You are super duper sensitive and find it hard to get out of a sad mood.
It's difficult for you to tell your sweetie no, even when you should. (Yeah, I'd be whipped. - ed.)
You often tell your partner what they want to hear, instead of being honest.

Your ideal partner:

Is straight from a fairy tale - the man or woman of your dreams
Is a total romantic, with an artistic or creative side
Loves to express their love to you, in all sorts of unique ways

Your dating style:

Dreamy. You like traditional romantic dates, like picnics in the park and candlelight dinners.

Your seduction style:

Fearless - you try what your parnter suggests, no matter how unusual.
Loving. You'll take your pleasure second, if necessary.
Internal. A lot of your enjoyment takes place within your head.

Tips for the future:

Be more realistic. Your romantic ideal is nice, but it may just not happen.
Let go of your fear of rejection - it's holding you back from being with your true love.
Open yourself up to a new love. The person you think you want make not be the one.

Dinner w/Friends

Had dinner the other night with Brian, Angela, Bunny, Ellisen, Rose and Rita at Jaipur. The lamb tikka masala is nothing worth remembering, though Rose really liked my cream (but really, which lady doesn't?) sauce. Dinner with these people is more about the conversation anyway than the food anyway. The conversation consisted of explaining pie and happy endings to Rita - still naive and innocent that Rita, green grapes as an Indian delicacy - but only in the north by northeast region, the best impression of a fainting goat EVER, splitting lips and having fun - not those kind of lips though that's fun too, a really good curry - more poo talk from Brian, and Russell eating wood. Probably had to be there to find any of it funny but trust me, it was good stuff.

I'm Fat

One of my titas - that's aunt in whatever language we filipinos are known to speak - just told me it looks like I've gained weight. Off to the gym after I finish the biz ass reading.

First Day Of Law School Interactive Web Tutorial

I remember the first question I was asked in law school and I think it was my first day of law school and it could very well have been my first class of law school. It was in civil procedure and it was with regards to a Bugs Bunny cartoon. Law school got a lot harder after that softball question and that day. Next thing I knew, I was saying, "I'm no doctor sir, I can't answer that question."

I Can't Believe His Excuse Worked

Next time I get caught doing something ~~out of the ordinary~~ ~~weird~~ kinky, I'll be sure to feign it and use it as an excuse.

What Law School Is Teaching Me That Is Going To Be Useful To Me As A Lawyer

Supposedly.

Tourney Blogging

I'm third with 33 correct picks and a total of 430 points in my bracket so far. The later rounds are weighted more heavily so anything can still happen but I'm also tied for most possible points remaining so I've got that going for me. As long as I beat out Brian, Trini, Bunny, and Armen, I'll be a happy guy.

HD"What The Fuck Is That On Diaz's Chin"TV

According to OnHD.TV, the following celebs have the most to fear about being seen on high-definition tv - there's also a list of those who still look good, but that list isn't as fun.

1. Cameron Diaz
The actress has had a terrible acne problem since high
school; her cheeks and forehead are littered with
unfortunate pockmarks. Ms. Diaz seems like a different
person in HDTV; she looks more like a Charlie than an
Angel.

2. Michael Douglas
The actor was once considered a Hollywood sex
symbol. But now, in HDTV, he looks more like Kirk
Douglas than Michael Douglas. Being married to
Catherine Zeta-Jones doesn't help, either. He appears
even older when he's standing next to her. The Wall
Street star looks like eight miles of bad road.

3. Britney Spears
The pop tart is still in her early 20s, but she looks about
10 years older in high-def. Her face is puffy and she's
starting to show wrinkle marks around her lips,
reportedly from a two pack-a-day cigarette habit.

4. Brad Pitt
Like Ms. Diaz, Pitt had a terrible skin problem in his
younger years. The impact is clear in high-def. He's
still a good-looking guy, but he doesn't look like one
of People Magazine's "Most Beautiful."

5. Jewel
The singer looks great in still photos and music videos,
but she looks terrible in high-def. And someone should
help her with make-up; it looks like it was done
by Ringling Bros.

6. Renee Zellweger
Ms. Zellweger is a cutie, but her cheeks look like
she's had a Rosacea problem; very visible in high-def.

7. William Devane
The veteran actor plays Secretary of State James Heller
in Fox's 24, but he looks like hell in high-def. Devane,
who once played John F. Kennedy in a docudrama
about the Cuban Missile Crisis, should duck and
cover the next time they ask him to star in a
HDTV program.

8. Bill Maher
The comedian/political commentator is scary in high-def.
And I mean, scary. His skin is pasty and white, making
him look like an Albino. Make that an Albino who
doesn't get much sleep. It's a good thing that HBO
doesn't air his weekly talkfest in HDTV.

9. Jamie Lee-Curtis
Oh, my God. With her short-cropped graying hair
and crow's feet, she looks like a guy in high-def.
What happened to her? Christopher Guest, be my
guest. Buy your wife some Botox! And, a wig!

10. Joan Rivers
Someone should pull the rug over this red carpet
host! In HDTV, you can almost count the stitch marks
from her various facial surgeries. Do you remember
that song, "Old Man River"? Well, how about,
"Old Woman Rivers"?
