Escuela!

My odyssey to return to my personal Ithaca of Cyberspace is nearing its end. My hard drive stopped working in December, and after several conversations with Dell employees (outsourced, of course, to the Indian subcontinent), they sent me a refurbished hard drive. Because I bought this computer from my father's company, it had all of the corporate software installed, but I didn't have any of the installation discs. Some anonymous sources have provided replacements (presumably purchased out of gratitude for my continued friendship) and my computer is almost complete.

Right before my typing box pooped out, I had installed a home wireless network. The law school has a wireless network also, which brings me to the point of this post...

The school's network was installed last summer, so most of the 1Ls (first year students) have laptops and wireless cards, and spend classtime chatting with friends or playing games online; I imagine this works some effect on their grades. Twice a week, I have to sit in the back of a 1L writing class as a TA, and I can never get any work done while the prof lectures on writing briefs, so today I decided to join the fray and bring my newly updated puter to school and surf during class. The 1Ls have a major brief due next week, so right now the prof is droning about paralellism or some such. As soon as I'm done with this post, I think I'll go see what JD has to offer...join me here.
