(do we really think the paralegal came up with the idea to ban the cups on his own?)... http://drinkme.whostolethetarts.com/archives/week_2004_03_14-2004_03_20.html#000197 (i once asked a friend while viewing a job opening at a firm there) the rock and roll hall of fame! except that the inductees (a very fine group this year) are inducted in new york. go figure. yay prince! sorry. i have a thing. i can't help it. no really. this has been going on for quite some time.... http://drinkme.whostolethetarts.com/archives/week_2004_03_14-2004_03_20.html#000196 crap at school is keeping me until late every night this week. we are not amused. in better news, i am visiting warm places twice this month. this makes me happy.... http://drinkme.whostolethetarts.com/archives/week_2004_03_14-2004_03_20.html#000195 always in search of a good organizing system. i haven't checked it out, but if you have perennial issues with bookmark organization in internet explorer: onfolio.... http://drinkme.whostolethetarts.com/archives/week_2004_03_07-2004_03_13.html#000194 god knows how many there are already, but here's another one: lorem ipsum books. i haven't visited, but maybe i will (very noncomittal as of late).... http://drinkme.whostolethetarts.com/archives/week_2004_03_07-2004_03_13.html#000193 how the hell is the ford focus considered anyone's top pick for fun to drive? i think consumer reports needs to investigate the laboratory method that most closely approximates pulling the stick out of their collective ass. surely there's gotta be something better than a hatchback. a hatchback!... http://drinkme.whostolethetarts.com/archives/week_2004_03_07-2004_03_13.html#000192 if i were in new york, i would go to this. so you should go and tell me all about it.... http://drinkme.whostolethetarts.com/archives/week_2004_03_07-2004_03_13.html#000191 writing a million and one papers. but don't worry, i've not gone anywhere!... http://drinkme.whostolethetarts.com/archives/week_2004_02_22-2004_02_28.html#000190 poon has a personality quiz.

You have soft spots, called "Clouds," which show that despite your gruff exterior, you truly are a benevolent person. Perhaps, when these Dark Ages are over, you shall shine again to ol Britannia.... http://drinkme.whostolethetarts.com/archives/week_2004_02_22-2004_02_28.html#000189 do not fear, the article says his purple wonderfulness will be adding the major market dates later. i just about had a heart attack thinking prince wouldn't be anywhere near boston. oh yeah, i'll be there. and i'm gonna party like it's 1999. unless some horrible, horrible turn of events occurs and the date happens to coincide with the bar exam. p.s. check out the caption on the photo on this cnn article: "Prince is one of the world's most uinque songwriters and singers." uinque is right! seriously though, it's as if they were just flabbergasted that they had to actually caption this picture....
