Malcolm gets a Blog - given that I’m such a Malcolm Gladwell fanboy, it will likely surprise no one that I’m excited to see he’s started a blog. Interestingly (and right after my friend Cam expressed dismay at the news - he doesn’t like blogs), so far it’s a bit different than the typical blog [...]

Judge Denies Use of R. Kelly Slang Term -
When she told him she was 11, Carter allegedly asked whether she had a boyfriend, “then told her he was fixing to do an ‘R. Kelly.’”

How to Make the Rules - Check the last one, it’s my favorite.
Property Prof: Well, what is the principle that Marshall has extracted from Johnson?

Dear Google,
We’ve known each other for a while now, and I think it’s a pretty good relationship we’ve got going here. I find things on the internet, and you make bucketfuls of money showing me ads that I never click on anyway. But there’s something that’s been bothering me lately. You have [...]
Brokeback Mountain is a Gay Cowboy Movie - yes, it is a compelling story for many of the same reasons that classic forbidden love tales are, but it’s also different - not Romeo and Juliet with two Romeos.
Brokeback to the Future - it looks like a pretty good film to me.
