GOP Party Caucus

Mississippi Republican Party Caucus   James Savik 11/29/2009     Mississippi Republicans met in Jackson Monday in their first in a series of meetings to decide which candidate that they will support in the 2012 convention and Presidential Race. A straw poll was held to see where the candidates stand.   None of those God damned yankees - got the most votes followed closely by Newt Gingrich and none of those God damned Mormons.   The Grand Dragon...

creativity

real talk, Ira glass   writing, film making, music, production, life - with art the baggage of self-doubt is heavy, but...   “What nobody tells people who are beginners — and I really wish someone had told this to me . . . is that all of us who do creative work, we get into it because we have good taste. But there is this gap. For the first couple years you make stuff, and it’s just not that good. It’s trying to be good, it has potential, but it’s not. But your taste, the thing that got you

The GA Law Blog

Two Interesting Documents...

1) PROFESSOR OBAMA'S FINAL EXAM, FALL 2003   He then describes the nature of those laws. Here is the prompt:     2) JUSTIN BIEBER'S PATERNITY SUIT--GIRL'S STATEMENT     Makes you see Barack Obama and Justin Bieber in a new light doesn't it? Bet that's the first time you heard of their names used in the same sentence!

The GA Law Blog

This is my first blog entry ever...

I've never written a blog before. But you guys seem like a cool bunch, so I'll give it a try. Also I want to get my reputation up from Zero   What I want to do here is to talk about legal things--things related to law, the practice of law, the enforcement of law, and law school--both as encouragement for myself to be reading legal news, as well as to give information to aspiring law students in the GA community.   So first, let me self-introduce. I am what they call a 0L--that is, a senior

A Thanksgiving Wish

May your turkey be juicy, Your taters have nary a lump, May your side dishes make no one woozy, while your desserts make everyone jump, and may your Thanksgiving dinner not go to your thighs forcing you into a new pants size.   Happy Thanksgiving one and all.

I didn't know what you saw in me, but I was grateful that you did because you were the only person who ever had.   Up until then, I was strong... but you made me weak.   the feeling petrified me.   "cheer up, sweet beautiful boy. you are going to love again & it will be magnificent," my mother had always told me.   ...     "to tell you the truth, I don't have much to offer. but I'll still give you everything I've got, even if it's barely a thing at all.

I hate fruitcake

Unfortunately, my dad doesn't. So amongst all the holiday baking I need to do for Thursday, I'm making him his annual fruitcake. At the moment, I've got 42 pounds* of dried fruit, and those nasty green cherries he insists on, soaking up really good rum. Waste of booze.   And, just for Vic, since I know he'll ask:   Chocolate swirled pumpkin cheesecake, Boston cream pie, mixed berry cobbler.   *may be a slight exaggeration

Missing pieces

Okay, I've been a little erratic lately. Sort of comes with the territory of growing up I think. Funny, most people can blame their issues on their mates, their children, hell even their pets. I don't get those outs. lol   I just found five Thanksgiving cards I forgot to mail. I feel like an ass but still putting them out in the mail. I have bills waiting for my paycheck to come in so I can I send them out. Feels like all I do is work to see the money go out. I think it is that time of the yea

Musings From Me

University!

Hello everyone!   Now, i'm not dead (as some people have been led to believe ). I'm in fact very much alive.   More alive than I ever have been. Ever since the meeting in August, i've been feeling more... appreciative of myself. I have a horrible fear of embarassment and I realised that I could be myself. Then university came along and i found out not everyone is out to spite or hate me. Some people are genuinely there to care and be a friend. Before coming to uni, i never really had any tr

What a whirlwind Weekend

Paya and I have had THE BEST weekend ever. And at the risk of making everyone throw up with our couple-cuteness, I thought I would recount the weekend here for everyone to enjoy - especially because the last time we visited London was the UK GA meet in August.   On Thursday I met Paya at Manchester airport. His plane was early and my train was late, resulting in a nice meeting alongside one of those "rolling road" people movers (the flat escalators). We took a train back to the city that li

case of the ex.

so, my housemate's ex-girlfriend came to visit last night.   she was running early and my housemate was running late, so we ended up hanging out on our own for an hour and a half, watching Back to the Future and having a really intelligent conversation about product placement in Hollywood.   fast forward to now, and my housemate's current girlfriend is sitting on the couch, talking about how funny Will Ferrell is and shouting quotes at the television while watching Step Brothers.   fuck my

"Oh my god, I think I killed him!" , the young woman holding a shovel shouted.   I answered, "I'll check. Stay back. Where is he?"   She said, "In the back yard. He surprised me on the patio. He tried to grab me but I smacked him." Her hand were shaking as she held the shovel at port-arms.   I pulled my Beretta and clicked off the safety and pulled my mag-lite.   I keyed my radio and said, "This is one-L-19 responding to complaint of a prowler, I'm Code 2 at 145 Pine Valley Highway. 10-7

Early Warning

"Look, I know you weren't really ready to talk to me, but I have to tell you what has been going on. Just listen to me ..." the voice on the phone said.   I sighed at my cell phone. The clock by my bed read two oh-three am and I had a crazy woman on the phone.   "Jessie. How nice to hear from you. What gave you the idea that I didn't want to talk to you. Not taking your calls, ducking your voice mails or actually hiding from you?"   Now it was Jessie's turn to sigh. "Oh come on Philip. We'

Holidays - meh

Okay, so we sit a week before Thanksgiving. I'm sort of confused but I think at this time of the year it is is normal. I work full time in retail. That means I am supposed to get no less than 32 hours a week. In fact the latest thing to come down is all full timers will have 36 hours a week. Well they keep scheduling me 30 hours and I have to find ways to add the two hours in so I stay full time or I lose my health benefits.   Well next week is Black Friday. i work in one of those wonderful co

Things are getting done - sort of

Well the Thanksgiving cards are out. I bought my Christmas cards. For me that is a major step this year.   I have my father's birthday card and gifts. Still trying to figure out what to do about Christmas for him. I forgot my sister-in-laws birthday. I wonder if that makes me a bad person? Anyway I ordered off Amazon, and sent her card out. All I can say is Oops, I'm human.   I posted Seeon yesterday, partially because I was having a bad day and partially cause I know the site will be down

My last effort Death By Dreaming turned out pretty well so let's see with this one.   Thanks to Maria for forcing me to wait for two days before starting even though my head was bursting with ideas, so I started on November 1st like a good girl.   So. I have the whole thing planned out... as much as I ever do, although I doubt that I will be sticking to it; I never do.   The characters are pretty wild this time and there's a lot of action, So

Trials and Tribulations

I just published the first chapter of my first story ever. It's a coming out, coming of age story about the trials and tribulations of Andy Collins and friends as he confronts his sexual orientation in a small mining town of Pine Hills nestled away in the Appalachian Mountains of Eastern Kentucky.   I would love for you to give it a read and let me know if you liked the chapter and would like for me to continue the story.
