"[T]he canard is often repeated that the common law rule is that a domestic animal such as a dog (or cat) is entitled to one bite." Of course, this happens to be one of those rules of law that isn't.
So I don't want to hear anyone saying, "Well Wayne told me I could only be held liable for dog bites subsequent to the first one." Won't work as a defense, trust me.

"Don't 12-b-6 dismiss me"
If you're not reading Jeremy's Weblog yet, you should be after reading this Valentine's Day love song:
Property is a bundle of rightsFor the rest, click here. Scroll down for a Civ. Pro. version.
And I want to hold you in my bundle tonight
I want a right to exclude
Anybody else from seeing you in the nude
If I have to I'll adversely possess
The shirt that you're wearing and your lovely new dress
I want to use you exclusively
I own you and you rent me
You're my property
For all of perpetuity
I'm putting a Restrictive Covenant
On anybody else touching you
You're my property
I'll sell you into slavery
I own an Easement
On every part of you
This Could Happen To You Bunny
An online gossip blog recently posted links to Tori Spelling's wedding registries and soon afterwards people who only know her as Donna started buying her shit.
Tori's expensive registry here and her cheap registry here.
By the way, her wedding day is 8/14/04, Bunny's is 06/05/04 and Bunny's registry is still not up on her wedding website. What's going on Rose?

02/09/04 - 02/13/04
Also known as "Let's Call On Bunny Week". Everyday but Wednesday and every subject but Contracts. With a bit of help from her friends of course.
She got called on in Crim. Pro. because I hadn't gotten around to reading the material and she got called on a second time during the week in Civ. Pro. because Rita was up north enjoying herself.
You did a good job each time Bunny but don't forget, you have yet to be called on in Contracts.

Why Don't Japanese-Americans Have Their Own Month?
Go check out this site which has this to say about itself:
Y?, the first and only site of its kind, gives you a way to ask people from other ethnic or cultural backgrounds the questions you've always been too embarrassed or uncomfortable to ask them. If you have the courage to ask, Y? will evaluate your question, consider it for posting and try to get someone from that background to answer. If needed, we'll get an expert to weigh in.Here's one of the questions posed,
Question:Here's one of the replies:
To white females: which racial group's men do you find the next-most attractive after white males, and what is the reason?
I would have to say Asians catch my eye before any other race. Even though I'm white, I could never get along with 'white' men. I find Asian men or Latinos more attractive. (Of course, I picked the best of both races and went for Filipino.)Someone find me Crystal. Please.
Crystal, Los Angeles, CA, United States, Female, White/Caucasian, Straight...
It's Getting Out Of Hand
Annie called me yesterday morning to warn me of a possible FG encounter asking me to say "cheese" in case I did so that she could avoid an encounter.
"Because No One Ever Asked For a Piece of Elephant"
I don't think there's any chance of getting Annie to be one of these.

I Kid You Not
I went to the restroom and this guy comes in right after me and goes into a stall with his laptop. As if that wasn't odd enough, he then calls up someone on his cell, presumably someone he is very intimate with, and flushes the toilet during their conversation.

Yesterday In Crim Pro
Professor Crim Pro: blah blah blah blah?
Me: I don't know where to begin.
Professor Crim Pro: blah blah blah blah?
Me: I have no idea.
Professor Crim Pro: Did you do the readings?
Me: No.
Professor Crim Pro: Why not?
Me: I just didn't get around to it.
Professor Crim Pro: You know I have to mark you absent?
Me: Yeah.
Prior to entering class I was entertaining the idea of skipping it to avoid the possibility of being called on unprepared and catch up on the reading. Instead I decided against it figuring the chances of being called on were slim to none and there was no point in wasting an absence. Next time I won't think - that always gets me in trouble - and I'll just stick with my first gut feeling.
Considering my history in Torts and now my recent history in Crim. Pro., I would have to say that no one has had as wide a disparity in in-class participation as I have had.
P.S.: My apologies to Bunny who had to answer the question for me.
Me: I don't know where to begin.

Law School Memory #17: Conversations With a Librarian
One Day In The Library
Rita: Hi.
Librarian: Hi, what can I do for you today?
Rita: We need a room.
Librarian: Ok. Which room would you like?
Rita: Doesn't matter.
Me: Get room 11. You know... the room towards the end of the hall without the windows looking in.
Librarian: Oh... kay.
Me: It's also known as the Makeout Room.
Librarian: You're definitely not getting that room.
Yet Another Day In The Library
Me: We need a room.
Librarian: Which room would you like?
Me: Room 11, the Makeout Room.
Librarian: Now why do you call it that?
Me: Come on. You know why. No windows to see what's going on inside, what do you think people are doing in there?
Librarian: I don't want to know what's going on in there.
Me: Sure you do. In fact, we should set up a surveillance camera in that room to tape what's going on in there.
Librarian: And what would you do with that tape?
Me: Watch it over and over again.
Rita: Hi.
Librarian: Hi, what can I do for you today?
Rita: We need a room.
Librarian: Ok. Which room would you like?
Rita: Doesn't matter.
Me: Get room 11. You know... the room towards the end of the hall without the windows looking in.
