Our Feb Club correspondant has gone round the bend.  Some give the guy a hug or something, okay? I need to go back in time two weeks and kick myself right in the nuts. What kind of moron goes out every night for 30 straight days?  Yeah, it’s easy to talk a big game: “Who needs sleep? I’ll sleep when I’m dead!” and “Yeah, technically you only have to come out for an hour and two beers, but that kind of attitude has no business in Feb Club!”  But what in God’s name compelled me to actually take myself seriously?  Especially when it means I keep waking up in my bathtub, covered in McDonald’s wrappers and my own urine...

We really hope they actually do the paper work

The classic February conundrum

Posted on February 16, 2008
It's the third weekend of Feb Club and you've finally come down with the first signs of the Law School plauge.  Do you head out to a cramped, packed but highly anticipated party filled with sweaty people where you'll drink too much, share your disease, end up throwing up and wake up both hungover and sick as a dog?  Or do you stay at home, sip some theraflu, stay full of liquids and watch Superbad in your pjs so that you can study and prepare for your Moot Court oral arguments like you planned?This is hard.

This Week in Feb Club

Posted on February 13, 2008
We have to agree with the boys at Feb Club is Why Daddy Left, it's very disturbing that only 3Ls are going to 3L parties and only 2Ls to 2L parties and the 1Ls are trying out to be Dillards.  This is very wrong.  The best part of Feb Club is hanging out with people you barely know...

We had just logged in this afternoon to write a post about how we can't believe Lile Moot Court is an extracurricular activity -- you know, something you do for fun -- when the power went out in the library.  After that happened the fire alarm went off...

Here's Hillary!

I like Golf, but I love Frolf

This year's graduation speaker is Timothy Finchem.  You know, the Pro Golf Association Tour Commissioner.  It's a truly cutting edge legal organization that files amicus briefs, like, every week.  Plus, given the steroids in golf investigation you can bank on the speech making headlines...

Don't tase me, bro (yeah, kinda obvious, but necessary)

In case you've been holed up in the library working on your Moot Court brief, a 3L was thrown out of Barrister's for being drunk and disorderly when he refused to leave the bathroom.  Then when he spit either at the ground or at the security guards a taser was brandished and he was either tased or quickly complied...

Some drunk 1L e-mailed us and asked to post his exploits as he attempts to complete the Ironman and attend every single Feb Club party.  We thought long and hard about our journalistic integrity, the level of quality we require and then did what any blogger would do: "Free Content!  Hell yeah!"  This'll be a regular column so long as he keeps surviving...

It might be real.

From a tour guide teaching 1Ls how it should be done: Guide: Along the hall you'll see portraits of our former deans.  SilenceGuide: I don't always mention them, because as far as I'm concerned, they are just a bunch of dead old white guys.Silence That should be a surprise to Bob Scott...

Sorry for the absence.  We got in from Vegas last night.  Our friends talked us out of taking Giants to win.  They're not our friends anymore.  On a completely unrelated note, if you ever wanted to visit a sponsor now would be the time...

So, how much of an alkie are you?

Posted on February 05, 2008
We spill a lot of ink over Feb Club, but we know there's a lot of you who might not make it to many parties or even any. It's just like when Law Review got announced and we knew three people. They were apparently not at Feb Club. Someone even just suggested that if you exclude Barrister's Ball then half of the law school doesn't go to a single party...

We really hate when the person in front of us is reading Perez or Pink is the New Blog.  Sorry, we can't help but ogle Scarlett Johansson like an optometrist does a 12-eyed alien.  Wow.  That is why we don't do similes.  Anyway, Fred From Jacksonville lists some of the things he saw the girl in front of him check out during Con Law...
