Study Break #1

It isn’t the first for me, but it might be the first for you.  

Airplane, from College Humor.

Train stations, not just for trains anymore.

This may be the greatest thing I’ve seen in a week or so.  I don’t know the story, I don’t know the reasons, and I don’t care.  All I know is that it is absolutely awesome.

What if I have nothing to say?

I realize when I sit here sometimes that I go through my day thinking, “hey, that would be an interesting thing to blog about.” I then promptly forget what it was. Now I’m sitting here with absolutely nothing to say. I’ve recently been impressed by Ann Althouse, who, along with being a law professor, manages to put up what seems like hundreds of posts a day.  Me, I’m lucky if I can put up one every couple of days.  Andrew Sullivan wrote in an article for The Atlantic, “Why I blog” that you have to post as soon as you are done writing, to allow it to flow naturally.  But I’m rarely so fully confident in what I’ve written that I want to expose myself to the world.  And yet I will.

The Barack Obama Soundboard

Someone brilliant discovered a number of passages from Barack Obama’s reading of “Dreams of my Father” that are of dubious moral character.  If you are as easily amused as I am you will get a kick out of hearing the President of the United States saying “you ain’t my bitch.”
