Speaking of which, the defense attorney who argued the "bong water is a drug" case before the Minnesota Supreme Court personally apologized to me for losing. I thought that was nice.

Breckenridge's Tourism Rescue Plan?

http://www.denverpost.com/news/ci_13707672

It's amusing this post is right after PLF's bong water post.

Amusing, maybe, but more seriously, does Breckenridge's legalisation of tolerance extend to bong water?

Just to be on the safe side, don't let PLF's friend argue the case if the cops think it doesn't!

And take Maddow, as well. She was amusing at first, but hanging around Olbermann, she's degraded into a boring blowhard.
Oh right. You've never seen me.

Re: Next Iron Chef

No spoilers, but I actually enjoy watching Mullen. I was a huge fan of a related restaurant to his, so I have been pulling for him since the beginning.

Lawyer Dating Sucks

I have been dating the chimney sweep for a few weeks now and it sucks.

Well, I mean, he's amazing, but that whole lawyer dating thing sucks. The only thing worse than being him right now would be working for him.

On the plus side, I have plenty of free time to dodge the ex-LMA's advances.

How do you all do it?

I dated a lawyer once -- never again.

I love the Firefly chick as the visitor spokesperson. She gives off a lizard alien vibe. I hope she eats rodents like Diana in the original.
I thought the acting was spectacularly bad in the beginning, and just less bad in the last half. I will continue to watch it I guess, but begrudgingly so. I think the simple fact is that I probably would have liked it more had Battlestar 2.0 been erased from my memory. Don't know if anyone else is watching this, but the pilot of White Collar was a lot better, I thought, though not scifi.

I divorced the lawyer and married an engineer.

Problem solved.

The odd thing is I always thought the ex-Mr. BnB was a fireman. Must have been someone else from the old GA board.

Re: Welcome back E/O, leagl and Fringey: no one say the name "Penske" 3 times in a ro

congrats to Yankee fans.

now, my beef- since Walton has quit, my number one problem with sports announcers is pseudo-stats: "The Yankees always win in a year where they move into a new stadium."

The new stadiums are spaced by so long that no possible tie exists. for an announcer to make the statement with a straight face bothers me.

It happens all the time with college sports: "USC has never won in Ann Arbor." Well, okay, but they haven't played there in 25 years* so what the fuck difference does that make? Every player is gone after 4 years, and there have been 3 coaching changes for both schools over that time- it is stupid, and insults my intelligence.

I do make an exception for "the curse of the Bambino", since it recycles itself each year, or did, plus it would allot for the Lions "curse of Bobby Layne**."

* I made this one up, but you get the idea.
** last week, against the then worst team in the league, for a good while our best offense was having our quarterback throw an interception, then tackling the interceptor in the end zone for a safety.

I married a lawyer. But she retired so I'm the only problem. I don't know how she does it.
