1. How many seconds after hearing that the new course schedule is available do you open up a spreadsheet and/or sophisticated business-grade data analysis suite?
2. Is the fact that I'm living with my in-laws this summer going to hamper my chances of getting a permanent job offer, or just hamper my chances of spending quality "face-time" with partners in a "strip club"?
3. If you could only use one coordinating conjunction for the rest of your life, how bad would that suck? Explain.
4. Which is hotter: Colin Farrell saying "I want you to have my baby" or Colin Farrell saying "I want to pay off your student loans"? (For straight guys & lesbians, substitute Brad Pitt instead.)
5. Would you be impressed if I told you that I have a keyboard shortcut that converts text into small caps? What if, when I told you, I was, in fact, wearing a small cap? Give examples.
1. However many seconds it took for Acrobat to load.

I, a straight woman, do not get the Colin Farrell phenomenon; so, Farrell saying that he would pay off my student loans is undeniably hotter, but not hot enough to make me want to have his baby.

5--I think that having a shortcut for small caps is enough for me to want to have your baby!!

(6) How many more Jurisprudence classes can I miss before the professor notices?

Colin Farrell is sexy and dangerous and all of that, but he's no Philip Seymour Hoffman. Now HE could father my children AND pay off the student loans. Sigh.

Don't worry about #2. We'll cover for you. Something about "Westlaw training." Until 2:00 am.

The question is how many more Jurisprudence classes can you miss before YOU notice?

1. More appropriately, how long was I distracted when I should've been editing my appellate brief down to 3,000 words? Answer: 1.5 hours.
2. As long as you dont let on that you "live with mom", you should be okay. As far as the strip club thing - well, I'm all for bringing back the old tradition of having the female summer associates participate in wet t-shirt contests during lunch...if you can get that done, you don't need strip clubs!
3. Impossible to explain without the use of more than one coordinating conjunction...I think. I'm not really sure what a coordinating conjunction is!
4. toss up..both stoke the flames better than gasoline!
5. No...oh...yea, still no.

the hottest thing would be Colin Farrel saying, "I want to pay off your student loan debt and then have really hot, crazy sex without the chance of you getting pregnant." He would be a horrible father.
