Thursday, February 3, 2011 at 9:00AM Known to readers of The Onion as Colombia’s “second finest export.” It’s a thing which millions of Americans “cannot live without.” In its average and immediate state of post-percolation, it is, like the life of a cynic, dark and bitter. It is also a substance that really should be avoided by the LSAT student and the meditator.
If you’re studying for the LSAT right now and are already a coffee-drinker, you know very well that not drinking coffee is an unlikely step you will take in your preparation. And if your test is in February of 2011 (or within the next three months from the time you read this) then you’re right to scoff at this advice; there’s no point in changing a long habit while studying for a test of such harrowing reputation. However, if your test isn’t for another 92 days, you should stop drinking the morning’s dark elixir immediately and suffer the five days of headaches and exhaustion.
Thursday, January 27, 2011 at 6:14PM The parenthetical of this post comes from an oath written in 1943 by (probably) Alfred Bester:
In brightest day, in blackest night,
No evil shall escape my sight,
Let those who worship evil’s might,
Beware my power, Green Lantern’s light.
