I think tonight may be a night to bust out the liquor... I will see how I feel when I tuck into the seedy dive bar. :P

Sweet man, thanks for being my guinea pig. Since more than one person volunteered, I'll just post it here.

This is still a draft and I just want to make sure people will be all right with this (generally). A bit of polarization is OK because I don't mind filtering out people who won't accept a bit of dry or morbid humor. I just don't want to depress people into doing really harmful stuff.

BTW, what's the name of the beer? BevMo's website lets you plug in your zip and search if it's available at your local BevMo (knowing this is sign #92 why I might be an alcoholic).

Yes! Lots of great chilling moments in that movie. Not going to name the movie in case some people haven't seen it yet.

Boo! It's Kokanee and out of stock. I saw it once during the Stanley Cup when we were playing the Bruins. Otherwise it's hit or miss. Plus here in the states it has less alcohol than in BC. We were legal to drink at 19 :D

What's it like? Bottle looks like a Coor's. They'd probably have it at this massive warehouse liquor store in SoCo--haha. Nothing I haven't been able to find

I enjoy it, it's a clean taste which I prefer. I went to some pub in San Diego area called Churchill Pub, has some decent craft beer. I forgot the names, I may text my sister whose coming after she gets out class, to find the one I liked. It was smokey and nothing like I'm use to.

Stores are crazy today. Costco has maniacs in the parking lot and in the store.

It all reads well and doesn't feel tacky or out of step with your tone of emails you send out. 10/10. I feel like I failed the bar already.

I wonder if in the pre-Internet days people got their results one by one by mail
I was told they called in 'back in the day'

Speaking of which. I found an old Flemings graded essay book. Just to show how rare they test the takings clause, it was tested in 90 (very brief issue) 1992 very similar to ours, kicking myself missing comprehensive plan. A graded 70 got 10th Amend, Zoning, non-conforming use, comprehensive plan, variance, PDP, EPC, 5th Amend discussion (zero regulatory Penn Central on this graded essay) so to those worried, this one passed with 4 handwritten pages with issues many here discussed. Then Feb 2010 it was tested.
Welp, the next 5 hours and 43 minutes just got that much more agonizing.


Lol, I only did SDP and PDP.
Man I was super prepared on all things Constitutional Law and I cannot imagine having f*cked up an essay more. Pretty sure I discussed none of those other than quick comments about variance, pdp and epc... and I made my whole essay bout Penn Central. 10th amendment duh omg.
July needed Penn Central..you are fine, you did good. We need to start a drinking game. I'm starting around 3 or 4.
I didn't mention comprehensive plan, but I think I mentioned that municipal zoning laws are subordinate to state planning/zoning statutes, before assuming that there were no relevant statutes in this state. (Also, in CA, there's no such thing as a comprehensive plan - it's called a General Plan).

Meanwhile, back to trying to dodge the people at work telling me they're sure I don't have anything to worry about. I appreciate the sentiment, but in a way it makes it seem like they'll be even more disappointed if I have to retake.

Anybody else's heart pounding? For NY we just got an email with no head's up beforehand. This set date and time thing is definitely preferable but nerve-wracking nonetheless.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
Just kidding ... it's still FREE!
