Not Everyone is Handling the News Like the Dolphin, However...

Posted on October 10, 2008
The New York Times Blog reported last night that, while "My Super Sweet 16" parties may end up a footnote to the Wikipedia entry on Nero's concert while Rome was burning, a certain amount of hedonism is surviving the "downturn."...

He Just Didn't Have a Window

Guilt by Association Antics Get Retarded

Posted on October 09, 2008
Here's Sean Hannity spitting blood and foaming from the ass about Barack Obama's associations with a known terrorist. Here's a liberal spin doctor one-upping him, calling him an anti-Semite and threatening to lick his face. Here's the other guy...

Nothin' But a G Than(g)

Posted on October 09, 2008
As if Sarah Palin's conspicuous g-free delivery (she's always "plannin'" and "hopin'") over the past five weeks wasn't enough, in Tuesday night's debate, it appeared that John McCain had caught the fever as well. Evidently this is all part of...

The Daily Memo - 10/9/08

Come on man. We all know it ain't the black turnout and street money issues in Philly that'll decide whether Obama or McCain gets PA, it'll be how many Pennsyltucky racists show up to vote. (Salon.com) There there, little fearful...

Skeet skeet!

Dustin and I have talked before about the shows we were in back in our law school days -- thank the lord YouTube weren't around back then. Anyways, for part of a terrible skit in one of our shows, myself...

Whatever man, "your day in court" is way overrated anyways

Posted on October 09, 2008
So uhm, not sure if you've heard, but the economy is kinda fucked. And now it's taking a bite out of crime, as it were, as criminal defendants in Maryland could see themselves going free without a trial. See, folks...

Today in Presidential Polling

Posted on October 09, 2008
If you're an Obama fan, I've either got decent news for you, or great news, depending on who you ask. If you ask Reuters/Zogby, Barack Obama has a two-point lead, nationally. 47-45. If you ask Gallup, however, Obama has an...

Unfunny Movie Bombs Because of those Goddamn Liberals

Posted on October 08, 2008
I got a little nasty today over on Pajiba, after having to suffer through David Zucker's right-wing nutjob "comedy" An American Carol, which may be one of the worst films I've ever had the displeasure to sit through. Not just...

Where Do You Even Buy a T-shirt Like That?

Here's an incredibly depressing AP report on a van crash in Tennessee over the weekend. The van was being driven by a ten-year old who was driving over 90MPH at the time of the crash: His passengers were two other...

The Daily Memo - 10/8/08

Damn it -- new polls show that the fucking ban on gay marriage here in Cali may pass. Fucking homophobes. (LA Times Blog) Really John? Obama is "that one?" Really? (The Huffington Post) The lawsuit from the San Diego firefighters...

Bitter Old Bitch Hates "That One" So Much, He Outsources Hand-Shaking Duties to "C*nt" Cindy McCain

Posted on October 08, 2008
It was a pretty dull debate, actually. Mostly, Obama and McCain repeated what they said in the first debate, and the questions and answers were fairly similar. Everyone gives Obama the nod on this debate, and if you watched...

Uncle Sam is unimpressed

Posted on October 08, 2008
Jose Perez is a brilliant man. He was cruising down the street one early evening, just listening to some tunes. Trouble is, he was listening to them a tad too loud. The cops flagged him down, and Perez pulled into...

Well that's one way to avoid having the jury find you guilty

Posted on October 08, 2008
Thirty-four-year-old Carlos Molina was recently sitting in a Florida court house, facing charges for armed robbery. I'm speculating here, but I think that that Molina's trial must not have been going very well. Because otherwise, I'm not sure why he....

That Crazy Sure is Contagious

Posted on October 07, 2008
Here's a political story that doesn't involve Sarah Palin, though if the polls keep trending the way they are, I can see the McCain campaign pulling this sort of stunt: Death rituals. A voodoo priestess. A cancer-causing curse. A Cobb...

Corsets are for Idiots

Posted on October 07, 2008
The good, wholesome fun of the Renaissance Festival in Maryland ended poorly for a twentysomething couple over the weekend. When a 21-year-old woman "taunted" her boyfriend with a wild snake, they both were bitten and had to be rushed to...

The Daily Memo - 10/7/08

The Constitutional Impact of the Election

Posted on October 07, 2008
Almost all lawyers know the name Erwin Chemerinsky. That's because almost all lawyers prepare for the bar by taking classes with BarBri, and they therefore all wind up seeing a six-hour lecture by Chemerinsky, done entirely from memory, which is...

David Letterman: "It's not a time for beginners"

Posted on October 06, 2008
I've been watching David Letterman most of my life -- it's how I start most mornings. He's actually a personal hero of mine, even as his edges have been smoothed out by age and the 11:30 spot. And up...

McCain Will Steal Your Babies, but Terrorist Obama will Eat Them

Posted on October 06, 2008
The hard-core character attacks have begun, which I suppose was inevitable, particularly as McCain slipped in the polls. I didn't expect the McCain campaign to go as low as it did over the weekend, though, suggesting that Obama --...

Posted on October 06, 2008
Despite the fact that reality is looking increasingly grim these days, Americans seemingly can't get enough of "reality" television. We import many of these shows - from "Big Brother" to the jaw-achingly inane "Hole in the Wall," but here's one...

Great googly moogly - Blawg Review #180 is a hefty sumbitch. (Law Pundit) At the bar I was at Friday night, the OJ verdict actually got a bigger cheer than anything that happened in the baseball games that were on...

Sarah Palin is a Fucking Bitch

Posted on October 06, 2008
In the video below, Palin basically invites the media to attack her. Happy to oblige. At a rally here in Cali this past weekend, the woman who plans to shatter ceilings quoted Madelin Albright by saying that "there's a...
