Thumbs up to the last Law Weekly of the year. Finally, ANG can stop writing sophomoric jokes and finish work on ANG’s novel.

Thumbs up to Prof. Collins’ Charge to the Class. ANG had you for Civ Pro and would like you to know that ANG got your Erie joke. So, sleep well tonight.

Thumbs down to the official beginning of exam period. Another exam period, another chance for ANG to totally flex ANGself. And yes, that is what it sounds like.

Thumbs up to the overwhelming number of end of the year bbq’s, meetings, concerts and events that people are squeezing in before exams. ANG’s outlines are going to be written between trough dives and sets of a Sprinsteen concert. Hopefully ANG’s corporations professor thinks it’s funny when ANG’s exam is saved under the name “Murder Incorporated.”

Thumbs up to recent trend of Law School events related to Uganda. Uganda is so the new black.

Thumbs up to the HRSP Shooting Trip. Seriously guys, Assassins was one thing, but a shooting trip? You realize the second amendment isn’t really a “human right”, right?

Thumbs up to Passover, and the students who passed out unleavened bread Monday in recognition. Nothing makes ANG’s Monday like a little pre-noon macaroon.

Thumbs up to students who so crack under the stress of exams that they literally yell at their friends during class. Nothing says “future superstar trial attorney” than a case of stress induced Tourette’s.

Thumbs down to people who think their comments or jokes about exams are original or witty. ANG is the only person that can make unoriginal and unfunny jokes time after time and think it’s funny. So back off.

Thumbs up to new cheese steak special in the cafeteria. Good thing all of ANG’s pants have elastic waists.

Thumbs down to the winner of Paw Review for using a picture of your dog taken when it was a puppy although it is now full grown. Size matters dammit! Size f’ing matters.

G. Robinson: I don’t think you have it right—the question is not whether you can get it up or not. Wait . . . that didn’t come out right.

M. Dooley: If for some reason you wish to be punished, and do not know a sadist, buy calls on insider information.

E. Flippen: Why do professors grind through so many cases? The law has changed. Read a case where the doctrine started. Then read the case that controls the law now. I guess they have to do something.

E. Magill: Being bettter than Justice Douglas by 1970 is kind of like being the best looking law professor—it’s not like there’s that big a pool to start with.

T. Nachbar: Isn’t it pretty outside. Should we have class outside? My first year I taught a class outside, my small section. I thought it would work out okay, we were friends, right? . . . Yeah, that didn’t work out at all.

M. Schwartzman: Don’t shoot your casebooks. We had a guy who would take his casebooks to the range after exams and blow them away. Then he would post pictures of it. He became a JAG officer. I guess that’s no surprise.

T. Nachbar: Anyone ever hooked up with someone?
Class: [snickers]
T. Nachbar: Not that way! Hooked up to their kidneys!

K. Abraham: I skipped [the unit] on collision and comprehensive coverage. It’s what happens when your car is damaged. I can’t bring myself to talk about it. Just buy both. That way, when you hit a deer, it doesn’t matter. Anyways, it’s not worthy of a great law school.

T. Jacobi: I thought you were going to quote the less famous Jefferson quotation: “Let one nail one’s genitals to a table . . .”

R. Balnave: You’re going to have to give me signals that class is over because the clock is broken. Put your heads down and look tired. The trick is to make it distinguishable from our normal [9 am] classes.

M. Collins: Next week we’re going to cover the topic of divorce. That is going to have some serious life consequences for you.
