The Obamas are Coming!

RIDICULOUS situation: So you're having a dinner party and a friend of a friend that you invited knows the Obamas and has invited them to come as well, because they said they had no plans for the weekend. So you are spazzin' out and can't decide what to serve, etc. But the friend of your friend told your friend that Sasha and Malia hate homemade cookies for some reason, and they LOVE store bought cookies. So, you of course want to oblige and decide to head to the store just before the party to pick some cookies. You find out at the store that you've left your wallet at home, there's only enough time to grab something and get back just in time, and you happen to have $5 in your pocket. You can only afford one type of cookie...
So which cookies do you buy?
Chips Ahoy!
Soft Batch
Pepperidge Farm Milanos
E. L. Fudges
Pecan Shortbread Sandies
Oreos
Chips Deluxe
Nutter Butters
Nilla Wafers
Fudge Stripes
Other
Please Specify:

An Awkward Situation with Pixar...

So, your friend invites you to their work party. They work for Pixar, and you're sure you'll have a great time. You get there and things are going great, but then turn for the worst. You watch as a heated argument starts pulling more and more party guests in. They're fighting over which of Pixar's ten films is the best. Your friend and all the other people at the party choose one of the ten films, and AMAZINGLY, it's an exact tie between all ten films. You're the only one that hasn't voted. They all discover this and look to you. Well... How are you going to break the tie?
Which is the best Pixar movie to date?
Toy Story
A Bug's Life
Toy Story 2
Monsters, Inc.
Finding Nemo
The Incredibles
Cars
Ratatouille
Wall-E

Involuntary Olympics...

Jerry Seinfeld has a bit about how he thinks the luge is an Olympic sport that could be done by people who didn't even volunteer to participate. Imagine if they had an entire Olympics that was involuntary. People were just taken off the street and forced to participate before they could return to their normal lives. ...
What would be your favorite involuntary sport?
Diving
Squash (Would they know rules?)
Bobsled
Skiing Slalom
Curling
Shot put
Equestrian

TELL ME! TELL ME WHERE I SHOULD GO!


Loyola Law School
Originally uploaded by greenbeangirl74
You see, it's a new year. So I've decided that I can renew my interest in Just Ridiculous Polls. However, I don't think I'm gaining much of a following what with my measly four followers. This upsets me. So because of all this, I want to start asking fairly normal poll questions... but still in a fairly ridiculous manner. For instance, today's poll. I'm really just asking which of these schools y'all think I should go to. But can you imagine if I was holding a gun to your head?! See? Ridiculous.
If someone had a gun to your head and demanded that you announce a law school for them to attend, what would be your reply?
College of William and Mary
Brigham Young University
Arizona State
University of Houston
George Mason University
University of Connecticut
University of Akron
Loyola Marymount University
University of Illinois
University of Utah
University of Cincinnati
Saint Louis University
Incidentally, I'm going to now talk a little bit about legal articles.  The law turned out to be a terrible direction to go with my career.  But now I'm doing some search engine optimization for a great side blog on my main blog about quitting law school.  Great stuff, huh?  This is likely never going to get read, and if you are reading this, then I'm sorry.  It is mostly just trying to set of Google's sensors for law related things.  Law blogs and law articles that offer legal advice about legal tips and services.  Are lawyers a good idea?  I don't know.  Let me know!  What?  Ok, bye.

Indie Band Names... their pet???!

This is a spin on my usual polls about the best indie band name. Now it's the best indie band pet name!
What is the best name that an indie band member would name their pet? (These could also be the names of race-horses I suppose...)
Galaxy
Peter Gabriel
Vibrant Fur
Charlie Brown's Christmas
Death Cab For Kitty
Doghouse Resident
The Fido Experiment
George Mason


This was entirely inspired by a weird Google search that brought someone to my blog. They searched for "Indie pet names," and I couldn't figure out what they were looking for exactly. Hope they found it! I can't really sleep, hence the poll in the wee hours of Christmas morning.

College Football Conference and BCS Woes...

So, during the current bowl-season, the Mountain West Conference has made a pretty good showing. They really do seem like they've always got a few very successful teams each season. This season they ended with three ranked teams. I was thinking... sure people say they don't have the depth they need to be considered a BCS conference, but what if they re-organized and grabbed a few winners from the surrounding conferences like the WAC. (Yes, Boise State is the obvious grab.) Also, it might not hurt to dump some schools that don't contribute in any great way to Football or Basketball. So, supposing they did this... What should the new and improved conference be called?

What should the conference name be?
Keep the name the same.
The Big Fat Mountain West Conference
The Freakin' Big West
BCS AT LAST Conference
Not-so-mid-major-anymore Conference
Whining Leads To Success Conference
The Intermountain Kicktrash Conference
Conference of the Likes of Elizabeth Lambert
