She tends to faint at the sound of a drum
cause she's folk
so play and maybe she'll come

Acoustic guitar, how lovely you are
with your inlays of mother of pearl
Be a good guitar and you can go far
Just bring me back my girl

She always said that you were the one
who could make her move her cute little bum
You understand where she's coming from
which I obviously don't
or she wouldn't be gone

Acoustic guitar, if you think I play hard
well, you could have belonged to Steve Earle
or Charo or Gwar
I could sell you tomorrow
so bring me back my girl

You'd better bring me back my girl

Um, not quite a parody. But a nice start. Not sure I understand it, but a good start.

Yes. The greedy bastards at Fox should have negotiated this months ago when they knew they'd be broadcasting the Super Bowl. So now, it's too late to get it on satellite. Maybe next year.

And tell your mom that Tom Brady is not attractive.

Whiner. You got suckered in by those Dish ads, you have only yourself to blame.

I didn't get suckered into nothing. I would rather peel my skin off than give money to Comcast. (And yet I send them a check every month for broadband)
Fucking assholes. I would use rabbit ears before I went back to the dark side.

Does anyone know what a lawyer's life at Google is like?

You and me both. They just took everyone on a ski trip to Aspen. (I think it was Aspen. Maybe Vail? Whatever - it was a free skiing trip.) With parties. The only trip I get around here is for food for dinner.

There is also a Lebowski after-party tied to the SF Indie Film festival

So I'm thinking about moving to Sacramento. That's in Northern California, right? Good idea? Bad idea? Raves? Flames?

I am told by reliable sources that Rose Hill is a very nice and upscale area in which to live. Don't know what the job market is like. And at least they have a basketball team.

Well, I guess it all depends where you're coming from. Where are you coming from and what are you used to?

9th Cir suit

Any thoughts? And of course, I'm wondering what the plaintiff's LAW FIRM is thinking at this moment. Note that McNichols Randick pulled the guy's name from their website pretty quickly...

What happens when you put two big, undistinguished law firms together?

Pillsbury Winthorp to merge with Shaw Pittman. With any luck, this will give them an excuse to get rid of the horrible graphics they rolled out with the Winthorp merger.

Harsh!
  • More than 100 lawyers are expected to lose their jobs when partners approve the deal in March, Cranston said.

I think you mean Roseville. If you like suburbs and gated communities, it's alright. If you don't, it is absolute hell.
