    The rest of the world is holding it ransom until the US gives us Pandora, Netflix, Veoh, ABC, Fox, and the NBC. England, you can give up the BBC too.

    Actually on second thoughts, you can keep Fox.

    What if we pay you to take Fox? Will that work?

    AC you know I love you, but you're going to need to step up your pun game.

    The onion has just set a new standard in pun-driven satire.

    I think he meant satire driven.

    EDIT: Then again maybe pun is driving and satire is yelling from the window like a dickhead, it's difficult to say.

    So, because I'm toying around with the idea of going to law school I took a LSAT practice test and scored 168 with no preparation. Pretty excited. I know that I'll have to boost it if I want to get into some of the top schools, but the range of LSAT scores for students accepted into Harvard Law was between 169-175.

    This route may make more sense than I initially thought it would.

    Blugh, there was a midair crash where I've done most of my training so far here. It was kind of their own fault (flying in formation), but it reminded me that I was really close to a midair. A guy passed over me head-on in the opposite direction by 50-100 feet. I was making radio calls, he was not.

    I'm currently playing through Demon's Souls. It is not something to play when you to need to relax.

    It's basically the crotchetty old man of video games, constantly complaining that in his day they had to earn their experience points, and walk uphill both ways through trap-filled labyrinths. But it's still a good game.

    I really wish Starbucks weren't everywhere. I fucking haaate going to them, but they're the only consistent place with wifi since I drive everywhere they're always the only thing near my appointments. Damn marketers and their smart marketing.

    Also... is it taboo to go someplace just to use their wifi and not buy anything? I feel less bad about doing this at starbucks, but I would imagine it's frowned upon.

    Easy solution. Sit in your car and hop on their wifi. They'll only get upset if you're sitting in their shop taking up customer space.
