it's hard to tell with email but it looks like you've
already applied more than enough. i'm not sure why my
announcement (which was not news about D's stance,
but about his appearance at an event some of you
might be interested in) warranted such a caustic reply, but
whatever.
anyway, it was a pretty entertaining presentation. chuck's
not the greatest speaker but he's pretty damn funny. the
best thing is that he kept making disparaging comments about
lawyers, as if he wasn't aware that he was at a law school.
or maybe he was.....
another highlight - talking about Napster, Dr. Dre and
Metallica and their lawyer Howard King - "Most musicians
don't know what's going on. They just want to make music and
money" (pantomimes Dre smoking a joint) "What's that Howard?
They're taking our money?" (takes another hit) "get those
muthas!"
:-)
