Contract law class....
So towards the end of last week my Contracts professor revealed that she'd written a poem about a hypothetical legal situation in one of her law review articles.
The class then asked if she'd read it to us.
Then we asked if we could read it out in class.
Then someone asked if they could sing it.
Then this happened....

Yep, saw this one on news.bbc.so.uk, the BBC website. Haven't listened to it yet, but I figure that when you mix too much Foster's, the country that gave us Russell Crowe, and a shark... somebody's getting bit.
And it may be the shark.

What not to do in church?
So I'm in church, filing towards the presiding bishop of the US Episcopal Church to receive communion this week....
It was a special service, both because it was in honor of Pauli Murray, civil rights activist and one of the first women and the first black woman ordained in the Episcopal Church and also because the service was led by Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori -- the first lady presiding bishop in our denomination.
And the service was at the same altar as the first communion celebrated by Rev. Murray -- the same altar at which her grandmother had been baptized as a slave.
Anyway, as I'm filing forward to receive Christ's body from the leader of my church in this nation, one of my friends, Meredith, falls in line besides me.
"Hey, babe, you come here often?"
She busts out laughing.
I'm glad we're a group that's accepting of women like Dr. Murray and Bishop Schori and of nutcases like me....
