Today SCOTUS made punk lyrics happy.

9th Cir declares reasonable expectation of privacy in IMs on service provider's network. (pdf file)

Computers are really really cheap. I keep thinking of buying one, and then wondering why I want to upgrade what I don't fully utilize now? Why am I shopping for things I already have? A bigger tv doesn't make anything worth watching, my new DVD player doesn't make movies better, and I still don't read as much as I should.

July 2 - Green Slime (1968) at the drunkhouse / psychotronic.

Edit - argh! That motion I worked on, and in which I "highly recommended" he remove the pointless 5-10 pages of re-hashing the background unrelated to the discovery issues, was just protested as violating a page limit required on filings! I didn't know about the limit, but by coincidence if had listened to my advice (which translated into "don't be an asshole") he wouldn't be rejected without addressing the merits. His oversight, style, and failure to heed my warning (for a different reason) may have really resulted in a loss. Eep. LISTEN TO ME DAMNIT! This also means the work I did all goes kapoot.

I've been meaning to make a post about my life of excess- why do I buy games when I don't have time to play the ones I have, why do I buy books when I have some to read still, etc.

I think I just like seeing 'stuff' on the shelves.

Not sure why... but I just read that as "SCROTUS" made punk lyircs happy.

Hmmmm.

It is my favorite acronym for that very reason. Because I'm 17.

I was so depressed when I turned 18. The only thing that made it worthwhile was buying cigarettes but, then I quit smoking 2 years ago so now adulthood is all about legally enjoying porn.

The Green Slime is a cracking movie. First time I saw it I couldn't believe my fucking eyes.

Cracking! I like this word, adopted.

Agreed.

Also: homoerotic like whoa.
