one giant leap...
thank you to all who read and enjoyed my insane little torts problem. thank you even more to those who responded to it. though the analysis was probing and creative, the "master issue" was never uncovered. perhaps it was just too subtle. anyway, here it is:
ned is barred from recovery because he can't tell his ass from a hole in the ground.
"Hey-O!!!"
jeez, that sure was a long hypo to write for such a sorry-ass punchline.
anyway, on with the show. i'm proud to say that i am ready to upgrade this blog to menlovian 3.0. that's right... at first it was just words, and not much else. basically a plain old weblog.
then came version 2.0. i fiddled around with the html, and figured out how to post a dazzling aray of pics, everything from donkeys to captain kurtz to your pictures of your wonderful classmates.
recently, menlovian has been operating under version 2.9. the highlights of version 2.9 included my posting the hypo and links to the helicopter game. additionally, v2.9 was marked by an onslaught of allegations of some sort of machiavellian subterfuge on the part of your friend menlove. (i have to admit that i have enjoyed these accusations a great deal...)
now, after many hours of trial-and-error, it's time for the next innovation. welcome to menlovian 3.0.
granted, this is still very much in its beta phase, so bear with me as i work out the kinks. still, i'm pretty satisfied with the results thus far.
so without further ado, here is the first menlovian poll!

Bravo, Menlove! I'm looking forward to finding out where my classmates stand on all of the silly issues you'll undoubtedly come up with.
Also, I can't believe I missed the big issue on the hypo...
Good job Menlove... another punchline to make me laugh out loud in the library and make me look like crazy person.
BTW...I was barred from voting. Technical difficulty? Or some crazy covert attempt to intentionally inflict emotional distress?
thanks!
is anyone else having technical difficulty with the polls? if the error message you're getting says "You cannot vote repeatedly," this just means that it already processed your vote. you should be able to view the results by clicking on the tab to view results. hope that made sense.
So i had this crazy, irrational fear that the professors will catch wind of this thing, and then view the poll which seems overwhelmingly in favor of t-bone, etc, and how much it would SUCK if one day--while musing about how quick-witted and funny your students are--you are only to find that you are the "favorite professor" of virtually NONE of them! And come on, grandpa p deserves more than that, doesnt he?

delightful german game of trying to see how far you can make drunk slob walk before he tumbles over and falls asleep.
Menlove I just went back and read the whole hypo you posted. I love it, but I do not believe that you wrote the whole thing in 15 minutes. It took me almost that long just to read it.
So how long did it take?
This is obviously a speciest tort question which discriminates against vegans and nonhumyn animals. I refuse to respond until Menlovian addresses El Guapo's legal issues in the context of our speciest common and statuatory law administrered by speciest judges, attorneys. jurors, and litigants.
