New Justice

By all accounts Judge Sonia Sotomayor is an intelligent fascinating woman who is qualified to be a Supreme Court Justice. What I do not understand is why she insists on doing McDonald's commercials --- mccafe

spelling bee

I think they should disband the national spelling bee. Not just because Indians win it, but because it is worse then 5yr old beauty pageants. You f with the kid as much as you f with the cute kids and ruin their lives for what, to have a future hotel owner spell ramada and win a portion of their text books in college?

SF Blues Festival

Wife and I went to the SF Blues and R&B festival on complete accident. We were going to the Cal. Academy of Science because we are dorks.

The half hour I spent at the festival made me realize that segregation was good for some things. White people in general should not go to Blues and R&B festivals. I did not even know there were black people in SF outside of Hunters Point and the Tenderloin. Well, anyhow. Overweight black chick singing about men and how she did not need them. A few black men playing some instruments with some older white dudes playing guitar. Without segregation none of these embarrassing people would ever interact with each other.

bar

Just ran into a young lady studYing for the bar. The test is 2 and a half months from now and she is already hunkered down at panera getting ready. Unless she already failed a few times she needs to relax (if she has already failed a few times I shouldnt have told her it is an easy test and that only morons fail). I mean you have to study, but killing tourself for 10 weeks is not the answer. The hardest part of the thing is not beating yourself up on test day. I mean, if I can pass anyone can pass. The best reassurance is when you drive into the parking lot and there are a few caravan of older mexican men waiting inline to take the test. You point to the Home Depot and say, hey guys, wrong parking lot, but nope, they are there to take the test. Just learn the law, practice your multiple choices and get used to arguing facts against themself and you will be fine. Also, if some strange man talks to you in a panera because his laptop is takin too long to boot up, ignore him, he has nothing but bad intentions for you.

stupid sayings

I was talking to someone about the Kentucy Derby before the race on Saturday. He said, a 50-1 shot would never win, he said he would "bet his life on it"

Now, what the hell does that mean? Do I get his life now that the 3yr old long shot came in? Does it mean I get to live twice as long? Do I get to kill him for entertainment? Do I get all the money he ever makes? Do I get his wife? his girlfriends? his boyfriends? his kids? Do I have to pay his taxes? What a dumb saying. I mean, if the horse lost and became glue like we all thought would happen what would he have won? I didn't agree to give my life or even the life of any future children in the bet? So, he was basically risking his everything for no return? Just a dumb saying, I think saying it makes him dumb, I should get to ride him down the homestretch.

Fuuutbol game

I am thinking of going to the San Jose Quakes game tomorrow evening. That may be the dumbest Idea ever. First, the team is named Earthquakes int he Bay Area, how does that even make sense?

That is a dumb reason. The real reason is, ya, let's go to a confined place with a bunch of Mexicans cheering and drinking, brilliant.
