As you can see, some changes have been made. After calling a meeting, Keiko, Dexter, Franklin and I decided "dots" were an appropriate format for this forum. We feel the dots really are a great way of expressing ourselves without being too "edgy" or "pushy."
As always, we welcome comments from you, loyal readers. But we like the dots, we hope you like the dots, too.
Here is a picture during our deliberations:
Sometimes, after a long time talking about one topic, an other human friend can get tired and fed up. It is a feeling we all have.
Does that really seem fair?
We all work out our frustration in different ways. I commend my roommate, Dexter, for showing this string a thing or two about love.

New Friends
Dear Loyal Blog Readers,
I know it's been a long time since I last updated my trusty blog, and I know that some of you have been upset - literally in agony - over the lack of posts in the recent months. I will open this post with a synopsis of my life since my last post:
(1) I recently traveled to Memphis, TN. Some of you may have heard of, or even been to, Memphis, TN. It is in the south and people speak southern there. It is also the home of BBQ, Elvis Presley, and my new friends. Some background: my aunt and uncle live in Memphis, TN (home of Corky's BBQ, Graceland, and my new friends) and have lived there forever - literally forever. They recently added some new roommates to their home that I had yet to meet. Pictured in this photo is Oliver (large, in front), his sister Sophia (blurry, in back) and the little hussy Lucy (kissing Oliver!) Lucy is not a new addition.
In fact, Lucy and I go way back.
Here is a picture of Lucy and I from 1975. You can see the animosity that was brewing at that point. Part of the reason for the hatred that I experienced for Lucy (I feel at this point, I should explain that I was forced to take this picture with her) is because she is so little and pretty. A hater of all things little and pretty, I thought I would at least try to give her a chance. But her personality sealed the deal for me. Independent, kind and soft. Not my kind of other human friend if you catch my drift. Anyway, if you look closely at this picture, you can see how I am trying not to choke her, and how she is pushing away. That was the start of our topsy-turvy relationship.
So, though I was thrilled to meet the new roommates I was wary to encounter Lucy yet again. I know she had been thinking about me as well.
IMAGINE ENCOUNTERING THIS

AS YOU WALK IN THE DOOR!
Well, gentle readers, I decided to give her a chance - yet again - to find that she was just as kind, intelligent and soft as before!
But, as always, we were forced to get our picture taken together:
You can see what a fight it is to even smile.
So, I did what I had to do.
(2) Well, tomorrow I am going to be on jeopardy. Wish me luck!

RULE against PerPOOPIES ?
Sitting in the library pondering life, wondering why I am even here because man property is a pain.
Fee Simple Absolute is so confusing because because if it's if it's a fee and it's absolute how can it be simple? And if it's confusing, how can it be simple?
A red pen. A RED PEN. Pending absolution. Absolve. Absolute. Fee simple absolute. Oh MY GOD I GOT IT.
She is fee simple absoluting my ties. See?
Do you guys DELIVER? Red Pen RED pen.

Photo Shoot
Dear Blog Readers,
Since I had such a rough day yesterday trying to figure out eminent domain, I decided to take the day off and get some professional engagement pictures taken. Now, it might seem a bit odd, since I am not a party to the engagement. However, I felt that it was necessary for me to have my picture taken with Kirby and Topper (sister and brother). Kirby is getting married (about time, she IS pregnant already). Her husband-to-be was working at the salt mine today, and could not make it to the photo-shoot. However, I feel rested, relaxed, and stress-free. No class can really do that for you. Now I might have to study a little extra hard about res judicata, but I think I have it mostly down. (Res judicata: precluding a person from committing the same crime more than once. If they commit the same crime again, they will go to jail for twice as long, and get their throat sliced - not enough to die, just hurts a lot).

That time again
Blog readers,
For those of you that did not know, I am a first year law student. Being that it's late April, I figure you can all guess that I am inundated with work.
Here is a synopsis of my bellyaches:
1. property: eminent domain? I can't even figure out what these two words mean when they are put together. Eminent means outstanding and famous. Domain is an area or territory controlled by the government. So the best I can figure is that when the government wants to take a famous and outstanding piece of property, they just start the proceedings. But they have to pay just compensation.
2. Civil Procedure: how can something so awful be so civil?
2.5: Largesse: what does this word mean. Did I make it up?
3. Legislative Process: as a proponent of the trustee theory, I cannot say much about this topic.
4. Legal Writing: I have never been so sure of something in my life, which is to say, IT IS CERTAINLY AND UNQUESTIONABLY TESTIMONIAL.
So, suffice to say, my roommates have been helping me study.
It's true what they say about friends (and roommates as friends!)! You try to study but it turns into a fun party! (evidenced above)
Now, please don't worry. My life is not all study, study, study. I do get to have fun every once in awhile (see above, and below)These are my friend Carolyn's roommates. Their names are Topper and Kirby. We have become really fast friends.
Here is a nice picture to end on:

Dear Blog Readers:
I hope that you will forgive me for my extended absence. Truthfully, I have been trying to find a way to post this exciting news for some time now. Last weekend I went to a party and the above picture is what occurred. It was probably the most rewarding, wonderful, and amazing thing that has ever happened to me. My friend Carolyn and Jennifer were there, as well as our significant others (Matt, Topper, and John, respectively).
Also, Carolyn has a new roommate (see picture below).
Her name is Kirby and she comes from France and speaks an odd dialect of French. Anyway, welcome Kirby into our lives.
Lots of love, and fun things have been happening lately and I am blessed, just blessed.
