Real World-Probate Challenge
For those of you looking for more essays to study for the bar:
Michael Jackson apparently diedintestate with a purported will. You're the probate judge. Discuss.
For those of you looking for a distraction:
I must confess cracking a very wide grin at the news that MTV's director of programming is stepping down and that its ratings were down 20% last year. I've wrestled with the thought that maybe, just maybe, I'm outgrowing the network and nothing more. But I really think it's the network that's leaving me. Like a Greek cabdriver asked me on the Island of Rhodes, "Where is today's Pericles?", I ask, where is today's Beavis & Butthead, Daria, Singled Out, Road Rules, Celebrity Deathmatch, even TRL under Carson Daly? Am I just an old crank or has MTV gone down the toilet by constantly featuring those human vermin--I'm talking about you Mr. Creepy Flesh-colored Beard.* I don't even want to discuss VH1 for fear of getting a STD just at the mere mention of the network, but I'll just say three words: Pop-up Video.

Gosh. I pine for the 80s and early 90s MTV when my babysitter made us watch Cyndi Lauper and Madonna videos. I miss Bon Jovi and Guns N Roses. I remember watching the the first season the the real world in New York City. I'm getting old.
I for one am just hoping that Is She Really Going out with Him? can live up to Tool Academy. I doubt it though. . .
I remember rushing home from school to watch Pop-Up Video. And Daria....wow. Even the reruns of My So-Called Life would be so welcome.
I know I am going to get a lot of crap for this question...but does anyone have any idea when AmJurs/Prossers will post to "all grades"?
