I Called In Sick Today

Your stupid!

HOW IRONIC!

this is exactly what I meant. reading the book, poring over the slides... you are constantly wasting effort.

I don't know...I've had a lot of classes where the professor, while not being a complete waste of time, certainly leaned much more on the readings than the lectures. I actually liked those classes though, since they were the ones where the professor would just get up there, sans idiotic powerpoint slides, and talk about what was actually interesting and relevant about the material.

Did anyone see the MTV movie awards last night? I am not a Tom Cruise fan, but that was hilarious.

I like Tom Cruise.

Strategy just can't catch a break.

and you studied business of some kind? I find this a little surprising.

I didn't transfer into the business school until my junior year, so I had 2+ years of taking whatever classes I thought sounded cool. Plus this past year included some very good professors who taught at least partially the way I described.

[JoeyJoJo 18]

This is pretty great.

In my experience, cats love Kleenex.

I either went to a class every time or I skipped it a lot. Only a quarter of my classes had attendance requirements (whereas in law school almost every class had one). I mean, I only took Sociology 001 to fill a requirement, I don't care about it in any way shape or form. If colleges are going to force me to take random classes to fill some nonsense requirement, I am going to find a class sans atttendance policy.Playing Event #16 today at the WSOP.

It was pretty funny for a change.

Ugh. That totally involves thinking and shit. No, thank you.

I thought it was a funny bit in Tropic Thunder, but I felt like the show milked it a little too much last night.

Law school having attendence requirements is stupid to me. At that point, someone who doesn't care enough to go to class deserves to fail out due to the fact that the world doesn't need more lazy, uncaring lawyers. Good luck in the event. Any good Vegas stories yet?

Plural, Joey. Plural.

I thought it was awkward any time he opened his mouth. The part with the song from The Hangover was much funnier.Serious answer from above: I used to prefer limit poker and pot limit omaha hi-lo. One story from this weekend: I was way down from blackjack and roulette (just having some fun and getting loud), so I had to play poker from around midnight-9am to get back to even so I wouldn't be screwed for the rest of the summer.

This guywon Best Moustache at the 2010 USA National Beard and Moustache Championships.There are four categories:1. Best moustache. Beards are allowed in this category but the contestants will be judged on their moustaches only;2. Best partial beard. Includes goatees, van dykes, sideburns, musketeers, etc.;3. Best full beard;4. Freestyle. Anything goes. Anything. Be creative.From an interview with one of the contestants:Is the cultivation of facial hair right for every man?"It can take you up a notch, or take you down three notches."What does a beard represent?"It is an extension and celebration of what's in the man that grows it."

[vbnautilus 48]

van dykes,

I had to look this one up. Turns out it is just a mustache plus goatee. Or as I like to call it, a goatee.

Technically speaking, and I think we would all agree that when it comes to facial hair we should be as precise as possible and not worry about common usage, a goatee doesn't include the moustache. "It refers only to growing a short to long patch of hair on the chin."

Dude, you work at one of the most high-tech places on earth as a scientist. Buy yourself a damn iphone 4. I think we can all agree that you've earned it.

[JoeyJoJo 18]

I think we would all agree...

Ya, the demonstration today was pretty slick.

[vbnautilus 48]

I'm definitely getting the iPhone 4. My current iPhone has been in a steady decline. Our first child is due on the 21st, and I've been holding off until today to decide what to do about videotaping. iPhone 4 will be available on the 24th, with built in 720p video. So I'm gonna do what any rational expectant father who needs biology to conform to apple's technology release schedule would do: duct tape my wife's vagina until the 25th.

I was in the car for an interesting sports radio situation today. From what I remember (I wasn't paying close attention at first), they were talking about the refs calling a tight game in the finals, possibly to keep fights from occurring and guys from getting thrown out of the game. Then one of the hosts starts talking about how guys were still getting to fired up and could have been T'd up, because one Celtic kept screaming, "Hell yeah, n-word," at one of his teammates. First the signal cut out for about ten seconds...I thought that was a weird coincidence, but when it came back the host was still saying something about how the guy shouldn't be yelling the n-word, and then all of a sudden it cut straight to commercial mid-sentence. Apparently, white sports talk show hosts aren't even allowed to say "n-word" in the context of a player saying it. To clarify, the host was saying "n-word", not the actual word.That's a little extreme, don't you think?

Aw, you didn't have to be kidding. Your white text ruined a mediocre joke that I was about to make.
