Lil’ Wayne’s in a universe of his own.  He’s like the fourth dimension of hip hop.   “Law is mind without reason. ……………..I’ll return,” Lil Wayne told fans on his Twitter page this morning.

“Lets say B gives A the money and then says, ‘but I’m going to sue you to get it back,’ then what?”

“Who would do that?”

“I don’t know… B?”

Pontification

It seems like all the “aha!” moments I have these days relate to time.  I suppose it should be obvious, but we only live for a finite amount of time.  I used to place a lot of importance on being smart, but after getting my ass whooped by people who I am by and large as smart as, I think what’s probably more important is how you use your time.  There will always be a deadline and the ultimate deadline is our own mortality.

I’ve seen this a few times, where a court will announce a new legal standard or rule or something, but then be like, “well, because the defendant failed to raise an issue relevant to this new standard we’re not going to humor her claim.”  Like, what’s up with that?

The Ice of Boston

I often feel like I don’t relate to white people, or anyone for that matter.  But, listening to Ice of Boston by the Dismemberment Plan, I think, “that could be me.”

After we warm up before a game, I gotta take a dump. It’s a huge benefit to release that gas you don’t need. The facilities are beautiful. We’re spoiled. If I get a good one, I know I’m gonna score two touchdowns.

Smalter once asked me before an exam whether I had taken a dump.  At the time I thought it was because we were out of toilet paper and he wanted me to go get more, but now I wonder if maybe he was sharing with me his secret to success.
