Our first-year associates are being sworn in as members of the bar this afternoon. Three years ago, on a day that was about as gorgeous as today, I received my law license under more desultory circumstances. My dad and I were unemployed, and I wanted to kill myself. Metaphorically, of course. Well. Not so metaphorically if you consider drinking to be a more protracted, but equally effective means of self-immolation. So as a good friend once told me, “When life sucks shit, don’t discount the future.” This is a good philosophy to have. I’d supplement it with, “Things could always be worse—you (or someone you love) could be DEAD,” but I suppose that’s not a very productive mantra to cling to on a day to day basis.
The point spread for the OSU Northwestern game is 18.5. That's a ridiculously easy bet. If anyone's interested, we should all put some money on Northwestern online. If Northwestern loses, at least we'll have our pyhrric victory.

“Things could always be worse—you (or someone you love) could be DEAD.”
Ah yes, the lovely words that comfort me in my moments of distress.
$6.21 on NU. done. There really isn't much point to banding together to bet, though, since we'd have to split the proceeds in the same proportion that we went in on.
