out of sight, out of mind...
yet absence makes the heart grow fonder! oh that professor poser, i just want to give him the biggest hug ever.
on the one in a billion chance that the dozer reads the crap i write, here's another one you can use next year: "look before you leap," yet "he who hesitates is lost."
it did make me feel good today in contracts when he asked whether anyone knew what a proverb was. for about three seconds, i felt really smart, and understood what was going on in class. that's not a common experience for me these days.
by the time that civ pro rolled around, it was fairly evident that everyone had already checked out for spring break. it seemed like no one felt like coming to class, and those people who were actually there didn't bother to read the cases. good old civ pro...
it's like i heard all year how important erie was from my lawyer friends and relatives. now that we're actually studying it, i can hardly muster the energy even to read it.
fuck it, i'm going on vacation tomorrow.
ok, so i've been working for awhile on a little article about "what makes a good law professor." i thought maybe i'd send it to dean wexler (aka d-wex) when i'm done with it, but i need your help as well. if anyone has anything they'd like to share about what makes a good (or bad) law professor, please email me at menlovebls@hotmail.com.
finally, to the weirdo who emailed me the "betting lines" for my identity, i'd be happy to post it for you tonight. but first, i've got to say that the name "crim_law_fanatic" is just fantastic. however, might "fanatic" be too strong a word?
anyway, some of you might have missed it on the message board, but it appears that a small cadre of our classmates have taken the trouble to rank the menlove candidates, and to assign each one odds for their respective degree of, um, menloviness.
i hope to see a goodly amount of bets being laid down in the weeks ahead.
and remember, those of you who want to collect on your bets should check out BLSforGood to monitor our progress. or just go ahead and make your pledge now with a simple email to menlovebls@hotmail.com.
so without further ado, here are the current odds on my identity. having reviewed them thoroughly, i can tell you that crim_law_fanatic and his cronies have done a pretty good job. enjoy, and feel free to comment on the message board.

i'll try to post once or twice during break. enjoy some well-deserved rest, everyone. remember, there's still plenty of time to bust your ass once school starts up again. i'll see you all on the flipside.

I'd like to put ten bucks on Jim Murray. Anyone want to cover?
Can we please have a list of ALL the guys in section 9?
What about Tom Lane? It's always the quiet ones.
Who would address the class as "losers" and then offer up odds on who Menlove is?
Instead of offering up odds, why don't you actually give to Africare, and then we can find out for sure, "losers"...
Who the hell is Tom Lane? Did you mean Tom Hunter? I didn't know there was another Tom in the class.
No, I meant Tom Lane. Look it up in facebook.
Nice one, 9:16. That picture in the facebook is hawt.
So I just got an email from my father--
"Who is menlove and why does he think so highly of you? Not that I am not impressed, but just wondering."
Ah, yes, Menlove now shows up when we google our own names.
Have a good break everybody.

The brief re-write killed my Spring break. Spring break is now on the side of the road, underware on inside out, bound with electrical tape.
Adam, I can't imagine how I'd explain to my father "who is Menlove." He must have been pretty proud of you.
To the person who posted just before me, how has it ruined your whole break already? Break just started.
To all those law school nerds out there who are spending the break in the library, check out the Court Order in the Schiavo case today. The fourth claim brought by the parents is a RLUIPA claim. But the court dispensed with the claim in short order. Enjoy.

the best part of the bubb rubb clip is not his "whoop whoop" (although the whoop whoop is awesome), it is how he drives away at the end, swerving out of control, and totally blowing through the stop sign.
