In Class With Floyd

Floyd — Wed, 08 Feb 2012 01:47:53 +0000

Tonight in my International Law seminar we’re talking about the Law of the Sea (and Air, Space, etc.) Why do I love my job? Because I get to talk a bit about the British sinking of the German Heavy Cruiser — The Admiral Graf Spee. After battling the British cruisers Exeter, Ajax, and Achilles [...]

…I’ve been in 57 states and I have one left to go.

This case is the textbook “hanging is too good for him” case.

I doubt this teacher will get what he fully deserves though.

The Case for Mitt

Rufus — Mon, 30 Jan 2012 17:02:46 +0000

Now you understand why I wrote this post, earlier (http://www.threedonia.com/archives/48688). Regardless, even with that preemptive shot I know I will be lambasted here for writing this, but, I’m a realist and I can’t help stating what I believe is fact.

Why Every Entrepreneur Should Self-Publish a Book

Rufus — Sat, 28 Jan 2012 23:06:09 +0000

(I found this article by James Altucher on TechCrunch http://techcrunch.com/ and I thought some here would find it interesting.

I’ve [...]

Larry, Moe, & Curly = The First 3 Supreme Court Justices

Wankette — Wed, 18 Jan 2012 17:39:30 +0000

Just found out that Wikipedia’s down today (per Jonah Goldberg’s Twitter feed). (Google’s even horned in on the act. There’s a big piece of — what looks like — duct tape over their logo.) Yesterday he wrote at NR’s The Corner:

Very soon Wikipedia will go dark for a day to protest something called SOPA. [...]

This is Awesome

This is Exhibit A that despite real misgivings about all of the GOP slate of candidates…. all of them (OK — maybe not Ron Paul — but only because he’d allow WW3 to start with his foreign policy) — are a damn sight better than Barack Obama. Republicans have had it up to here… [...]

You See, It’s Like This…

ESPN and USA Today are both reporting (which means ESPN probably stole the story from some local blog) that Penn State has hired New England patriots Offensive Coordinator Bill O’Brien as its next head football coach. Nittany Lions nation is apparently up in arms that someone without ties to PSU was hired.

Bill O’Brien [...]
