I have never watched N.C.I.S., but it’s sort of gross. Seriously. But I have one problem—someone who slits their own throat probably wouldn’t bleed out in, oh, 3 seconds. They could have saved the bad guy and made him pay. Ah well.
I feel I should post something law- or law school-related every few days or so. Therefore, here’s the latest news:
Yep. That’s right. NOTHING. No news from UT, GULC, or Chicago. No admitted students’ packet from Northwestern. No news from Mr. Angst’s other school. Nothing. Nada. Zip. Zilch.
I imagine I am a delightful person to be around right now.
Fitz-Hume requested one other thing, a review of Lake Tahoe, since I mentioned it was one of my “essential” vacation spots.
Full disclosure: I haven’t been to Tahoe in about two years. Last year, I was getting married around ski vacation time, and this year, well, this year we’re a little more preoccupied with visiting campuses and such than going skiing. So my first-hand info is a little out of date. Thankfully, my dad spends a lot of time out there and so does my brother. So I’ve mined them for information to flesh out this review.
Firstly, Tahoe is a great vacation spot in summer or winter. Or spring. Or fall. It’s just gorgeous almost all the time. The area has skiing, hiking, boating, water-sports, and gambling! It’s almost the perfect vacation destination.

For the last time, and I’ll say it slow, intelligent design is NOT science. It might be a nice, pretty way to explain how life came to be (via actual scientifically proven/theorized methods), but IT IS NOT SCIENCE.
What the hell is so wrong with presenting evolution to students and then letting their parents explain, in whatever manner they choose, how to reconcile a belief in the literal truth of the Bible with natural selection?
Argh. I am so sick of hearing these news stories that claim intelligent design is an alternative theory to evolution. It’s not! All ID does that the theory of evolution doesn’t is explain how seemingly random mutations occured. It does not reexplain the actual method of selection.
And by the way, just because you believe our DNA sequence has to be caused by a higher intelligence just because it “statistically is impossible” that it arose randomly, remember: people win the lottery. It’s statistically unlikely that an individual will win the lottery, but somehow they do. Go figure.
