Bar Review Diaries: Tornadoes, Facebook Withdrawal, and Hibernation

Our Bar Review Diarists are rounding the home stretch, and they are working hard to not let things go off the rails…

Andrew, no offense buddy, but when was the last time you went outside?

Dear Diary,

Some amazing things happened this past week. First, the Supreme Court decision concerning whether Ted Kennedy could force us all to eat broccoli from beyond the grave came out. Of course, I don’t understand why it was such a big deal. After all, who doesn’t like a plate full of steamed tax?

Next, we found out that in addition to writing the MBE, it turns out the National Conference of Bar Examiners also determines the rules for a tiebreaker at the USA Track and Field Olympic Trials. In the event of a tie, the runners tied for third, have seven options: (1) the runners may agree to a run-off; (2) the runners may agree to coin flip; (3) if the runners disagree, there will be a run-off; (4) if Nike and NBC tell us so, there will be a run-off; (5) an old-fashioned duel; (6) staring contest; or (7) broccoli-eating contest. Please choose the most-est, best-est, hostess cupcake with the most-est answer.

Then, Colorado Springs, home of Focus on the Family, was destroyed in a fire. Draw your own conclusions.

And finally, in late breaking news, Suri Cruise is now just another casualty in the ongoing war against marriage in America. Stand strong Tom. Scientology stands behind you. And behind your future ex-wife. At all times. Watching. Listening. Being weird.

Well, I’ll be damned, it turns out Andrew has been working pretty hard….

Oh! And one more thing! More amazing than all of them combined. I finished all of the instructional videos. Sure, some people might point out that it’s actually not that hard to finish all of them. You know… because all you have to do is watch them. To those people I have this to say. Commercial Paper. Sixteen lectures. For one-half of one subject covered by one 30-minute essay. It’s all about checks. Seriously. Checks. You know. Those things people use to pay their rent with. Seriously.

Happy Birthday America.

Keep up the good work, diarists. You are almost there, just a few more weeks to go!
