Congratulations to the UVA Men’s Gold team for winning the tournament for the fourth year in a row! It’s too bad softball dominance is not a criterion in U.S. News and World Report’s rankings.
Thumbs up to the tournament co-directors, the head field marshals, and everyone else who helped make this year’s tournament such a resounding success. To ANG, who finds the logistics of making Easy-Mac to be virtually insurmountable, how you did this is simply baffling.
Thumbs down to U Chicago for skipping their 7 a.m. game on Saturday and claiming that they were still in Chicago, even though they had checked in at Wild Wings on Friday night, and for then bringing glass beer bottles onto the field with them at their next game. That special blend of disrespect, arrogance, and deception have been patented by ANG, thank you very much.
Thumbs up to the underdressed undergrads jogging around C’ville in the warm spring weather. The five seconds of pleasure ANG gets from gawking at you more than makes up for the five fender benders ANG’s gotten into since March began.
A big thumbs down to the 1L who told his or her LR&W professor that his or her oral argument opponent should fail the class because his or her brief was poorly written. God has office hours tomorrow; ANG’s conversation with Him will be pretty much the same.
But, thumbs up to the 1L who got held in mock contempt of court during his or her oral argument. ANG has 3-1 odds on you being the same 1L who tried to get his or her opponent failed.
Thumbs down to the anomalously and inexplicably cold SL 262. The sound of fingers typing is bad enough, but the chattering teeth are too much for ANG to take.
Thumbs down to overzealous Darden students who take Law School courses. You make our gunners look like water-pistol-ers.
A. Bellia: “I’m looking around to see if there’s anyone from the Appointments Committee here. No? Now back to the frivolity.”
Student: “Oh, okay, I didn’t know ‘Sloop John B’ was a Beach Boys song.”
D. Leslie: “Ah. See, I assumed some incredibly minimal amount of background knowledge.”
D. Leslie: “We didn’t have email then. We didn’t even have MAIL then! Typewriters, nothing. We didn’t have anything. . . . I’m really old.”
J. Harrison: “The Unabomber was a brilliant mathematician. Yeah, I like to think that anyone who is possibly smarter than me is also a lunatic.”
P. Bellia: “Law school is what you do when you have no other talents or skills.”
D. Leslie: “Wanna lose weight? Get your colon checked. I lost three pounds.”
S. Walt: “[The drafter of the UCC] once said that Article 9 may as well have explicitly excluded fan dancing. I don’t know what fan dancing is, but I think you get the idea.”
J. Harrison: “What is replevin’s partner?”
Student: “Trover.”
J. Harrison: “See, this is what the law needs more of. ‘The Adventures of Trover and Replevin.’ ‘Trover and Replevin in the Wild West.’”
J. Harrison: “Did you take Property?”
Student: “Yes.”
J. Harrison: “Well, I will skip asking you if you took it from Doug Leslie. It spares me the problem of finding something to say which is both witty and not insulting to my colleague.”
D. Leslie: “I’m sorry—I was zoning out thinking of cocktail waitresses.”
J. Harrison: “The airlines have something called ‘yield management.’ ‘Yield’ means money they extract from us, and ‘management’ means as much as possible.”
G. Mitchell: “White powder! Sweet, sweet white powder! . . . I don’t know how I would have made it through the last three days without white powder.”
