Update

It's been a while since I updated. I spent two weeks in Ireland, where I balanced visiting pubs, 500-year-old Universities, and slavishly working on my Jessup memorial. Since then, I've returned to Edmonton, and have started on my final semester after 9 glorious years at the University of Alberta. Anyone who graduates after 4 years misses out on opportunities for discovery and personal growth.

The LSA organized a trip to the MustardSeed Church, where we cooked supper and served to almost 400 homeless people. It was a great experience. As with my time with Student Legal Services and my current stint with the Alberta Human Rights Commission, you truly get a sobering feeling of how you can make a difference in the world. That, more than anything, is important to me. Fuck the Calgary oil money. That's what's important to me.

Finally, last night, I finished 6th out of 63 people in a no-limit poker game. Fun times were had.

And now, a word from our sponsor;

Finishing 6th out of 63rd in a poker game is like being the 6th guy on Maury to not be the father of Tammy O'Shaniqua's white-trash baby. Naturally, she'll scream, slam her monstrous ham-fists ineffectually into the ground and mourn what might have been, but that's the sort of thing that happens when you tag-team the U of A SU after a drunken karaoke jam session at RATT. I wager it's only a matter of time before they test Lettner. High drama. He'll welch on support.

Drunken Law Students

I find this lovely post on my blog:

>Seriously dude, you need to abuse less Laotian children and start updating. I know >that gracing tiny, innocent children's hairless chests with your ropy cords of >man-seed is a rewarding experience, but it's hard to beat the thrill of updating your >homo-erotic self-fluffing blogspot too, you know? At least you can't suck more than >"Greg" with one 'g'. Fag.

I actually know the guy who wrote this, and I have to say: he's an attractive man. I might have accidentally left him in charge of my posting abilities, but to my credit I didn't actually think he'd abuse them. I mean, that isn't the sort of thing you'd do to an afro-encrusted Christopher Lloyd look-alike.

But back to business. I seriously think that 'latest vaguely arty thing' in Edmonton this week was a validating experience. It's a good thing this city isn't a festering shit-hole, or else I'd look pretty defensive, right, blog-buddies?

I talked to a girl this week: things are looking positive! She didn't run away, and I 'm more than a little sure that she isn't a tranny. If you know what I mean.
