Busy

Working on an example of how not to write a points and authorities memorandum in support of a motion to dismiss on grounds of lack of personal jurisdition, forum non conveniens, and improper service of process. It's coming along fairly well.

If you're looking for something to read throughout the day, try my favorite blog for the moment. A picture comes with each post so you don't really have to do any reading at all, which is a really big deal for me right now.

UPDATE: This is good stuff too. And yes, we may as well re-title this post, "Wayne's Lame Excuse To Procrastinate."

UPDATE: Thanks to "Cynthia Moj", I'm now catching up on all the worthwhile celebrity news.

Good thing I'm done with the issue of service of process. Call me if you need a primer on the 1965 Hague Convention.

UPDATE: I'm kinda Catholic (raised that way, but not practicing), what should I give up for Lent?

I hate personal jurisdiction.

UPDATE: Some tips from a guy who started his own firm straight out of law school with only $1,500 in his pocket.

Still working my way through specific jurisdiction.

UPDATE: Tipoff is in mere minutes and I'm still at the library working on my sucks ass paper.

UPDATE: The game is in overtime, like I need another excuse to not work on my paper.

Dodgers In 2008?

Well this is not encouraging for the time present.

A squad made up mostly of top prospects from the 2005 Southern League champion Jacksonville Suns (Double-A) returned to the Baseball Grounds of Jacksonville and scored an 8-3 victory over a Dodgers team that included four probable Major League starters -- Nomar Garciaparra, Bill Mueller, Jose Cruz Jr. and Dioner Navarro.

Third-Tier Conversation

Brian: I saw Armen.
Me: When?
Brian: Yesterday [Feb. 25].
Me: Wasn't his wedding yesterday?
Brian: Yeah, I saw him between his wedding and the reception.
Me: In between the wedding and the reception?! You're fucking with me.
Brian: I'm not.
Me: Where did you see him?
Brian: I saw him at Whole Foods in Glendale.
Me: The Whole Foods in Glendale?! Now I know you're fucking with me and that this is some kind of joke.
Brian: It isn't! But it does sound like the beginning of one doesn't it?
Me: I still think you're fucking with me.

If This Is Love....

Let's just hope it's another weird Asian thing.

I Hope There Was A Prenup

Class Of 2006 Student Speaker

After a long and hard fought battle with the administration, SWLAW students won the privilege to have a student give a graduation speech. So what was the response of the first graduation class at SWLAW to ever have a graduation student speaker? Well the administration had to extend the deadline for those applying to be the student speaker because of lack of interest.

But in the end, Mr. Brad Simon stepped up and volunteered, saving the past efforts from invalidation. When asked about it before going through the "selection" process he referenced this speech.
