Apologizing With Ira and Flo

[ciroccoj]

::snicker:: So I start reading yet another crushingly dull article on apology for my ADR paper, and I come across an author who apparently got tired of reading and writing the same old same old and decided to spice things up a bit. He's made the bulk of his article (concerning whether to change the laws on the admissibility of apologies in court) into a dialogue between two old law school friends, Ira and Flo. Ira is an Incremental Reform Advocate, and Flo believes in Full Legal Overhaul.

Not bad, buddy. You definitely engaged me, just from the sheer novelty of the approach. Which is kind of sad in a way - that I'm so easily amused, that is.

In other news, I scored 82%, got 41 out of 50 states properly placed, the rest within 84 miles, and took 355 s to do it. Go play: Place the State. It's fun.

90%, 18m, 172s
94%, 11m, 174s

"Place the 50 states" is SO COOL!!! I got 100%, but then, I'm teaching homeschool 5th grade in the U.S., so I'd BETTER know this stuff. I'm putting the link in my journal, and sending it out to the park day e-mail group.

Thanks!

You're welcome. I figure you never know when knowing something about the self-defence laws in Canada, might come in handy. Not that I'm threatening anyone or have anyone in mind of course. And if I did I'd never post my intentions on a public message board.
