Why Talia = Dennis the Menace

If you don't know yet, here are the reasons why I should be the blundering menace in my own sit-com:

1.) I am the one that filled our kitchen with suds after putting regular dish soap in the dishwasher. (my response was: "What's wrong with regular soap?")

2.) I let my roomate's pet hermit crab loose on accident in our apartment and we can't find him. (I was only trying to give him water- he looked thirsty)

3.) I fall in the subway or elsewhere in public at least twice per month.

4.) I forget my bar course materials regularly and have to race home during a break to get them.

5.) I quite frequently find toilet paper stuck to my shoes.

6.) I once peed on myself accidentally in work clothes in the middle of the day AT WORK because I was hovering wrong.

7.) A bazillion other reasons, that you should feel free to add in my comments section....

I know you've all seen the ipod mini before, but have you seen a FREE ipod mini??? Well here it is. Thanks again to Westlaw, who made it all possible. No seriously, this picture was taken with the digital camera that I got with Westlaw points too!

Dirty Flintstones Hypo

You can opine about this one even if you are not currently taking BarBri...

Ya know how practice questions tend to use commonly recognized names in fact patterns?? Well, BarBri is notorious for doing that, and I have a habbit of picturing the famous characters named engaging in the activities described in the question. Its only natural.

Is anyone else deeply disturbed by the image (found in Q1-35 of intermediate Crim Law multistate practice questions) of Barney Rubble sneaking into Fred Flintstone's garage to commit statutory rape with Pebbles on the front seat of Fred's car?? And Pebbles, that little hussy, steals the fuzzy dice from Fred's rear view mirror as a trophy!

Ummmmm.........YUCK! C'mon BarBri, did you really have to RUIN the Flintstones for me? You could have used the names of ANYONE in the history of television shows NOT primarily geared for the viewing enjoyment of children, let alone a freakin cartoon! Well, I guess it did the trick, cuz I got the question right, and I'm certainly not gonna forget that Pebbles' conduct constituted larceny, and that Barney did not commit common law burglary of the garage or car (1) because it was not a dwelling, and (2) because he gained entry with the key that Fred gave him- there was no "breaking".

Nightmare

Ok, so those of you in BarBri right now- remember how that first lecturer told the story about the woman who went nuts in the middle of the bar exam and got up, clutching her exam to her chest and running up and down the aisles screaming "Im a covenant and Im running with the land!"...

Well I had a nightmare last night that I was that lady! I was taking my bar exam in a room with a few other people (none of you were there), and the proctor in the room just happend to be that motor cycle riding teacher from Boy Meets World (If you say you don't know that show, you're lying), and I had to do 9 essays in 1 hour! Well, obviously my brain doesn't work that quickly or efficiently, so while all the other bar candidates were diligently writing, I could draw only stick figures in my blue book!- No words would come from my pen!! SO I started hyper ventilating at first, and looked to Mr. What's his name from Boy Meets World for help, and he looked at me with an evil smirk. I could hear the voice-over of his inner evil laugter at my disfunction. Then I stood up, clutching MY exam, like the crazy lady above, and started babbling loudly in tongues- mouthing expletives that even I couldnt' understand!......

I woke up in a cold sweat, and went to BarBri this morning.

I'm still afraid.
