One down.

I just took my first law school exam.

And all I have to say is: blech.

love train

I miss Gap commercials so much.

And one of my life goals is still to be in this commercial.

Start a love train. <3

And some more:

Check out some of these vests! I love it!

I have to say though… LOOK AT WHAT THEY’RE WEARING. So 90’s!

Thanksgiving

Annual Livingston Thanksgiving celebration!

Going to let the pictures tell the story with small captions.

Alice and her fantastic turkey!

Alice cutting her turkey. Frown at me for the sideways filming.

Congrats Tina on your engagement!!

It takes two to open a can of cranberry sauce. To be fair, it was difficult.

We love cranberry sauce.

Wii fit. And Suj’s buttcrack.

Dessert!

Weeee!

Alice’s fly was open. I was too slow to catch it.

Funny Cases #3

Wishnatsky v. Huey

Court of Appeals of North Dakota, 1998.

There are two attorneys, Huey and Crary. They’re having a private conversation in Crary’s office about some important private matter like what they’re having for lunch. Wishnatsky does paralegal work for Crary and walks into Crary’s office to deliver some important documents like e-mails from his wife and the menu for the Subway down the street. Seeing as the conversation is so private, Huey stops the door before it opens the whole way, and slams it shut, pushing Wishnatsky back out into the hall. Wishnatsky sues Huey for battery.

Now, if you’re still with me, I tried to make that more interesting but it seems pretty dull if not stupid so far. But the funny part is this:

In Wishnatsky’s brief in response to Huey’s motion for summary judgment, the first thing he says is:

1. I am a born-again Christian and cultivate holiness in my life. As a result I am very sensitive to evil spirits and am greatly disturbed by the demonic. However, in Christ there is victory.

It goes on to real things after that but I mean, to premise your brief with that makes me think that he really just asked to lose.

And he does. The court says Wishnatsky is being a baby and is overly senstive and a normal person would be like “Oh damn, sorry for the intrusion, I didn’t know turkey with no mayo was so private” and come back later.

Ok, so it is no secret I love High School Musical because I wish life was a musical and I could break out into random song and dance and have perfect strangers fall into step behind me as I dancea cross a college campus.

Which is why I absolutely love Britannia High. It is a eight part miniseries currently being shown on Britain’s ITV. What’s it about you ask? It follows six students at the exclusive Britannia High which is a school for performing arts. And at least three times in each 45 minute episode, they will break out into a music video inspired number which is, needless to say, fantastic.

But, I have discovered one thing that is bugging me out: The ITV website says I can’t watch any of the videos on their site from my current country or location. WHY!??!?! WHY DO YOU DENY ME??! Luckily, I can watch allof the episodes on surfthechannel but that still denies me all the extras they have on the website… like dance number walkthroughs and cast interviews which I shouldn’t be wasting my time on but I totally would.

I also love how multi-cultural teenage shows have to be. Where are all the yellow people though?

Funny Cases #2

Geopfert v. Filler

South Dakota, 1997.

So basically, Geopfert is driving a car and Filler is one of his passengers. They’re stuck in traffic and they’re going mad slow. Filler is being a bitch and he’s like ‘Let us out. Let us out right here.’ Geopfert is like, ‘No bitch, let me park.’ So they argue and stuff until Geopfert has had enough. The car was moving at 10-15 miles per hour in traffic and Geopfert goes ‘If you want to get out, get out.’ And so Filler, like a douche, opens the door and jumps out. And then what happens? Duh. He gets hit by cars and gets killed. And then he sues Geopfert for negligence. Seriously? What did he think was going to happen? Damn kids. Basically though, the court said Geopfert was not guilty of negligence because Filler had assumed the risk of leaping from a moving car. Well done.
