Tell Me About Texas a&m
https://www.usnews.com/best-graduate-schools/top-law-schools/law-rankings A&M is #29 in US News law school rankings this year. WTF?! I imagine an audit of the data they provided US News would be ugly.

Elon Musk: Nazi traitor piece of shit [Confirmed]
I finally deactivated my account. I was perusing it this afternoon and didn't recognize most of the tweeters on my feed and only saw a tiny fraction of tweets from people I actually followed and would like to read. It's just too much of a beating to read now. Probably for the best of my mental health.

FedEx shipment missing / stolen
Maybe nothing happens. But Karen the Thief is probably shitting bricks and will for a while. So IMO it's worth the effort to report her.

Looking for ideas for a Utah Road Trip
I drove with family from Phoenix to SLC via Grand Canyon and Bryce Canyon. I had that same kind of amazement/vertigo type sensation. We were switching out drivers every 30 minutes because everyone had that same discomfort.

Pet Insurance recs
I have a medium-sized 1-year-old puppy in good health. He was however bit by another dog randomly last week and I ended up with a $1,500 vet bill for stitches. I looked at getting pet insurance a year ago but decided against it as he was young and healthy. Dumb move. Anyhow, I want to get insurance for the future and there are dozens of companies and I don't know the quality of one versus another. Any recommendations are appreciated.

Relearning Spanish
I used Rosetta Stone a while back and it found it enjoyable and effective. I did it with my laptop but I imagine their phone version is good too.

Rage for sure. But what could you possibly be buying at Saks? Weird ass store.

Switzerland in the summer
Interlaken in the summer is gorgeous. Geneva and the lake is nice for a couple days. Zurich is boring and obnoxious year round.

Dumbass Shit We See On Facebook
- Far flung and/or remote globe trotters
I was in Zurich years ago and spilled a beer on the firm MacBook. The partner I mostly worked for laughed on the phone and said to get a new one there on them. Derp.- Far flung and/or remote globe trotters
I'm at 48 countries, most solo, and typing from Australia at the moment. Half or so were Europe, the rest South America and Asia. I could easily retire in BA eventually. The top of my bucket list is parts of Africa, Beirut, Cairo, and India. The wildest yet most rewarding place so far was Port-au-Prince after its earthquake in January 2010. I drove from the DR where I lived in a Uhaul type truck with medical supplies three days after the quake. It was eerily calm yet pure chaos at the same time. I also went six months before the quake to volunteer for a week and really enjoyed PAP. Watch Conan O'Brien's remotes from Haiti in 2018 and you'll see it was a really vibrant and fascinating place with wonderful people that has since tragically descended into the abyss.- Texas vs Miami- Elite 8- 4:05pm on CBS

It would easily be above a billion if not multiple billions. There are a handful of pieces of art known universally like David and Mona Lisa.

I got so ragey just now reading that. I wish prominent people with big social media followings would post stories like this with the names and photos of the petty officials involved so that at least there's some public shaming that might deter others.- What are the decent brands of tools sold at Home Depot.
My DeWalt compound miter saw has held tough year after year. Same for my Bosch battery powered drill set. I've never had a Milwaukee power tool but have always heard good things from trades folks I've worked with. I recommend battery powered tools if he's going to do a lot of projects. Definitely get an extra battery or two. - Far flung and/or remote globe trotters
