Papa Smurf and the others join in song as butterflies flock around them. Then the bombs start dropping.Smurfs are totally smurfed right and left. Mushroom houses are annihilated. One poor Smurf has a bomb land directly in front of him, and is tossed backwards, dead.

DC Comics is releasing Infinite Crisis #1 this week. For those not in the know, this is DC’s “event comic” of the year, with five other summer mini-series setting the stage for this seven issue mini-series, which is stated to redefine the DC universe.

I'll start with some politics and go from there. I have to admit that I’m conflicted on the Miers’ nomination.

I was doing some internet browsing and found two interesting things: (1) cutepuppy.com is a website featuring a cute puppy; (2) cutekitty.com is a porn site (Which I will not link to. You perv.).
More brilliant observations to come.

I finally decided to update some of the links, dumping Salon.com for the BBC News and switching out Tacitus with Red State (I have a feeling that Tacitus will be posting more at Red State than his own site; Harley and Bird Dog have taken over at tacitus.org).
The big problem was getting these links to work.

President Bush continues to push his faith-based initiative by not telling anyone what he plans to do.
The one thing that worries me in this article is the speculation that "Bush's education focus may switch to higher education."

New Bad Religon cd out today!
"The Empire Strikes First." Hmmm. A bit too obvious, but I'm not going to complain. I'd heard three songs off of this cd that I'd liked pretty well, and so far (nine songs into the fourteen song cd) I'm impressed. Good, solid music, with some new stuff thrown into the mix for good measure.
I did just get to the first "slow" song on the cd.

Though I don't fault such attention being paid to the WWII Memorial (the veterans obviously deserve the memorial and all the attention we are lavishing on them this weekend), getting around DC is going to be really difficult this weekend.

The biggest for me was the debut of Sony and Nintendo's new 64-bit handheld video game systems, the PSP and the DS respectively.
Sony's PSP looks like a dangerous little device: it has a nice big screen that will allow it to showcase its hefty graphical capabilities, and it looks like Sony is adding features in the hopes of making the PSP a mini Jessehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03407404861203648151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5692000.post-1083762945981692582004-05-05T08:15:00.000-05:002004-05-05T08:18:58.076-05:00Al Qaeda may be attempting to bomb subways and bring biological weapons into this country, but if they ever try to launch a nuclear missle at us at least we've finally got our missle defense shield!

Scalia's an interesting character. Though he's unabashadly right wing, he's willing to put his personal beliefs if he feels the law allows a particular outcome (as in a 1989 decision striking down a law banning flag burning).

The bride and groom made a very nice couple, and Kristine seemed very happy. Didn't get to talk to her new husband really, but he seemed like a really nice guy. Here's wishing them the best.
I picked up my mother's copy of "The DaVinci Code" yesterday. I'm about 100 pages into it so far (I'll be finished by tonight or tomorrow) and here are my initial Jessehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03407404861203648151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5692000.post-1075409177281674472004-01-29T15:46:00.000-05:002004-01-29T15:47:52.043-05:00Went to a Washington Wizards game last night. This was the first time I had been to an NBA game. It was a lot of fun, despite the fact that the Wizards were playing the Orlando Magic. The first five minutes of the game were scoreless. Terrible basketball, but a fun experience nonetheless.
Going to Florida for a friend's wedding reception, so no posts for a few days.

David Kay states that evidence has led him to believe that Saddam's scientists were making it all up. Apparently, Saddam was throwing money at anything that smacked of a weapons program, so his scientists just made stuff up to get money.

I'm not so sure; we haven't seen a flake so far, though it's plenty friggin' cold outside (I know, I know, this has nothing to do with snow...).
Some interesting news. As the last post stated, I plan on finally making a cd of some of my songs.

I know this has been true for a while. SNL has always been pretty lame, even when it started. It will occassionally have funny skits, but generally the shows are pretty dry. I've seen MadTV a couple of times and really liked it, but I'm not a regular viewer.

It didn't start well. I had a "deer in the headlights" moment in Civil Procedure II today. I had actually done the reading this past weekend, but I didn't go over it before class because I thought I would not be called on (I had volunteered during the first class). So, of course I get called on. I quickly skim the text and give a few vague and obvious answers.

Plus, they even have a little section on Bush!
I have to say that after reading up on the issues, I find myself agreeing the most with Kerry.

Congratulations to Shannon and Kristine Slimak on getting married yesterday!
I'm going to go see them later this month at their wedding reception (Mormon wedding, so I couldn't attend since I'm a dirty heathen). This will be my first time meeting Shannon.

I'd like to fix it up a bit (at least the font) but I have no idea how. Of all the people I know, I am the most technilogically inept. I can do things with my computer, but it's only because I'm persistent, and because I can think outside the box when I need to. I have no aptitude with programming.

Stupid President!
Bush needs to look "visionary" in order to win the next election, so he pushes a "manned mission to Mars" boondoggle onto the American people. Sure, fine, we're in massive crippling debt anyway. The problem is, in order to pay for this completely useless and stupid mission we're dismantling the rest of the space program.

Granted, this is a pretty cool idea for a hack and slash style game. Instead of directing your character by pushing a bunch of buttons, you can perform the moves to direct your character. Plus, you get more exercise than you would sitting on your butt mashing buttons.

I could always just come here and complain about political topics, but not only is that boring and one-sided, but it will probably make me look like a rabid liberal (which I'm not).

When the administration finally responds it promises an investigation which goes nowhere.
Now, former Treasury Secretary Paul O'Neill shows a possibly classified document which is highly embarrassing to the administration. Now we get an investigation.

Contracts is the same as it was last semester. Constitutional Law is still confusing me (and it didn't help that I was the first person called on), but apparently it gets better over the course of the semester. We have a new professor in Civil Procedure, but otherwise it's the same confusing stuff.

None of the classes really stand out, but none of them seem terrible. The professors all seem very professional, though apart from Prof. Maggs none of them seem like they're out to keep us entertained. This is not a bad thing, but it's going to be a very different semester, I think.

I visited my family over my two week break from law school. I had a lot of fun, but it wasn't exactly restful. I actually got sick almost immediately upon arriving home and I'm still fighting it off.

Here are the rules (a la Fight Club):
1. You do not talk about law exams.
2. YOU DO NOT TALK ABOUT LAW EXAMS!
3. Ok, you do talk about them, but only in a general way in order to insure that everyone was as confused as you were.

I would have completely supported the war if I thought for a minute that the administration wouldn't screw it up.

I don't want to buy gifts for the family yet because I'm flying home and I don't want to lug them onto the plane. I ended up getting things for everyone in my study group (Shawn, Geoff, Melissa). I also got something for Sylvia. She's been hanging around with us more and is starting to get absorbed into the group.

I spent most of today sleeping, which means I have to spend tonight studying. At least I'm done with the legwork (notetaking in book, outlining, etc.). All I have to do now is keep reading the outlines and case charts and doing practice tests. My Criminal Law test is tomorrow. I've seen questions from other exams and they don't look that bad.

It has the first two Zelda games ("Legend of Zelda" and "Adventures of Link") from the NES and the two games on the N64 ("Ocarina of Time" and "Majora's Mask"). I got to play a bit of AoL this morning, which I've never played before. I have to say that I'm liking it so far, but I can see why it's not as popular as the other games.

I'm feeling pretty good about it, but the practice exams I've looked at have the most insane questions. It's funny, because the professor comes off as one of the nicest, most approachable professors I've ever met. He just has a hidden mean streak when it comes to exams!

I feel like it went pretty well. I definitely wrote more in the first hour than I did in the hour long mid-term I had in Civil Procedure. The test itself wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.

I spent my childhood and young adulthood in Florida. As you may know, Florida is one of the hottest states in the Union. It never gets that cold there, even in the depths of winter.

School really picked up in November, what with our office memos due and getting ready for finals. I have a couple of review classes left this week and that's it. Hopefully I'll get back to putting stuff on this weblog again.

Washington, DC is apparently CN challenged, as my cable service does not carry it. I've only seen one episode of the second season so far, and that was before I moved to DC.

Beginning next week, we're all going to have to start looking for summer jobs (the horror!). The talks were actually pretty helpful, and they gave me a better idea of what sort of jobs to look for and how to go about looking for them.

Icelandic fisherman who goes by the name of "Iceman", skipper of the trawler "Erik the Red", is watching his crew working in the water when he sees a shark headed for his crew. This shark had apparently been attracted by the fish blood and guts that are the inevitable result of the processing of fish.

I ended up spending so much time sweating over it last week that I never did any actual work. I only started serious study on Saturday. Shawn had a get together at his house and Geoff, Brian and I showed up to discuss some of the rules of civil procedure.

It is incredibly violent, but not in the same way as Tarantino's other movies. It actually reminds me quite a bit of Blood: The Last Vampire, except that Blood was more disturbing. Kill Bill was more cartoonish and darkly humorous. If you like westerns, samurai films, or anime then you'll like Kill Bill. Good stuff.

He's a pompous blowhard propagandist parading around as a real journalist. However, he just recently went on Fresh Air on NPR and made a complete ass of himself, which is just too funny to ignore. If you've got the time (and the connection speed) head over and listen to him make a fool out of himself. He repeats several previous lies, makes demonstrably false Jessehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03407404861203648151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5692000.post-1065734080982412122003-10-09T16:14:00.000-05:002003-10-09T16:14:40.933-05:00All that is wrong with the Catholic church is summed up in the headline of this article.Jessehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03407404861203648151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5692000.post-1065733971855273582003-10-09T16:12:00.000-05:002003-10-09T16:12:51.840-05:00Apparently, Grover Norquist thinks that the estate tax was as bad as the Holocaust.

After that the temperature should drop back down into the high 60's. Nice weather.
Went out to a bar to see an amateur comedy act last night (a friend of a friend was performing). There were six acts in all, with the friend of a friend performing 5th. The first act was ok.

First, the Gamecube is now officially the best selling console in America! For the week of October 4 it outsold the PS2 by 20% and the Xbox by 145% (!). This is obviously the result of the 'cube price cut, down to $99 from $149.
More good news: free goodies with pre-purchase of Mario Kart: Double Dash!

My printer died this evening as I was trying to print an office memo. It was running out of paper so I tried to add more. I should have known better, as this is a top loaded printer which you do not add paper to if you don't want it to jam. It, of course, jammed. It started making this horrible noise and would not stop.

I finally got around to beating LoZ: The Wind Waker. I really enjoyed the final fight with Ganon, though it wasn't that difficult. It looked good and was a lot of fun to play (unlike many of the other boss battles in the game), and it actually makes me want to go back and play through the game again just to fight Ganon again.

I just wanted to let all of you know that I'm not dead. I've just been really busy. I've been working on an office memo for Legal Writing, our reading load has recently increased, and I've been doing more stuff outside of class recently. I have a list of stuff to put down here, but I'll wait to do that in my next post (which should be tomorrow).

This weekend was a bit of a bust. I didn't get as much work done this weekend as I'd like (as usual), so I'm frantically trying to get it all done now. I did go out to see "Lost in Translation" with Shawn (law school friend) Saturday night. It was a pretty good movie.

Apparently, a combination of these is supposed to happen tomorrow. As some of you may know, the Galileo satellite, which has been gathering data about Jupiter and it's moons, is scheduled to end its mission tomorrow with a fiery crash into Jupiter. This is being done because the satellite uses a nuclear fuel (48 Jessehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03407404861203648151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5692000.post-1063982055189908602003-09-19T09:34:00.000-05:002003-09-19T09:34:14.993-05:00Sorry, I should have posted earlier. Wednesday was really busy. I spent the day trying to get all of my reading and other things done, and hung around school that evening in order to do a project (unfortunately, the other person never showed up). That evening I had A LOT to do. I had to do the readings for my three classes the next day, plus come up with a one-minute presentation on why a Jessehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03407404861203648151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5692000.post-1063764767120098102003-09-16T21:12:00.000-05:002003-09-16T21:12:47.356-05:00No updates because I've been busy (I should actually be doing work instead of writing this). Not a lot to say at this point, besides comments on the hurricane heading straight towards DC. I'm not sure exactly how worried I should be about it. I'll have to wait and see how close it's going to be to us and how bad it looks like it will be.

It's fixed now at any rate.
Apparently there is an opera singer living next door. She's loud enough that we can clearly hear her through the wall. Thankfully, she does not practice early in the morning or at night.

I've been pretty busy the last couple of days. I had class on Thursday from 8:30 to 3:00. After that, I went with some friends to see Crossfire (which films here at GW). It was actually quite fun, and I'll definitely go again. That particular show was a bit different from the usual Crossfire fare, since it was the anniversary of 9/11.

Monday and Tuesday I was pretty busy working on a project for my Legal writing and Research class. I was exhausted each night when I got home. It's probably better that I didn't try to post anything, as the quality of my writing drops considerably when I'm tired.

Perhaps I should explain this, as I did not do so in the earlier post (though it was explained in the links). Snopes is a site that debunks urban legends. In one of their posts, they addressed an allegation by Michael Moore that members of the Bin Ladin family who were in the US on 9/11 were allowed to fly during the Jessehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03407404861203648151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5692000.post-1062812467593906092003-09-05T20:41:00.000-05:002003-09-05T20:41:07.680-05:00Hey, if any of you decide to be, um, really nice and buy me a set of these, then I'll...uh...say nice things about you on this site.

Traditionally, one of the weaknessess of the Democratic Party has been that it is perceived as having a weak and ineffective foreign policy. In fact, this will probably be one of major pillars of Bush's 2004 campaign. However, Kevin Drum at Calpundit shows that this might not be the best idea.

This is a brilliant article that not only exposes the major problems within the Bush administration, but shows that the Bushies are really post-modernists! Who would have thought?
In all fairness, I do think that postmodernism is a useful philosophical system.

We've had storm front after storm front hitting us for the last two and a half weeks. Today that all stopped. Winds from the north have hailed the beginning of fall!
