Random Thoughts From the Weekend

**Thanks to everyone who threw their two cents in about the unfaithful bride-to-be. In case you were wondering, the consensus was pretty much that the guy was well within his rights to call off the wedding. People had differing opinions on the friend's culpability, although many people agreed she failed as a friend.

**For those who brought it up, my response would have been exactly the same if the roles were reversed; In fact, I think I may have been even harder on a cheating groom. Also, for those who suggested that our posts this weekend were chauvenistic, let it be said we think men are just as stupid. In fact, this entire blog is a shrine to male stupidity.

**For those of you who suggested that you wouldn't personally call off your wedding in that situation, I say fair enough, but it's one of those situations where you don't know what you'd do until it happens. Sort of like the question "If you won $50 million in the lottery, would you stay in law school?" Lots of people like to say they would stay in school, but you can't really know what you'd do until you wake up for a 9:00 class with only 4 hours sleep, and 45 pages of reading to do, and the idea that you could be in a beachfront house sipping a margarita if you wanted is actually possible.

**No, we will not bring back comments. We still don't like them, and if we want reader feedback, we'll ask for it via email.

**Thank you to those who pointed out that I really meant DEFCON-1 instead of DEFCON-5. See, I am learning things in law school.

**As a huge football fan, this was an all-around disappointing Super Bowl. The game, while not a snooze fest, wasn't exactly exhilarating, and the commercials were nothing special. The only really entertaining part was watching a 350 pound running back play his final game.

**And finally, I had an IM conversation with our youngest fan, a 16 year old girl. This give a whole new meaning to 'Barely Legal'.
