So how do I top my bartender costume from last year? Simple--what's scarier to a law student than the Bluebook, bane of subciters, bible of horrible type-A library gnomes?



Read for the full story of its creation, as well as pictures of me wearing the costume. Or just to see my significantly less ugly friends.

Me and the guys squeezed in a visit to friend/patriot/dude-mistaken-for-former-president-by-dumb-guys Sam Adams between classes today. It was a little like visiting Willy Wonka's factory, except instead of a golden ticket we had blackberry witbier labels. Also nobody died.

( The pictures... )

I was going to draw a comic about Richard Posner and his theory of efficient breach, but I really didn't feel like doing layout so I just did a couple head sketches instead. GUESS WHICH ONE IS BASED ON A REAL PERSON.

The other day I saw John Higby give a yo-yo show in Boston, outside Faneuil Hall. I'm putting up the photos just now because I am lazy.

( There are only 4 of them because, wouldn't you know it, yo-yos move pretty fast and are hard to shoot well. )

More law-related stuff. I used a regular old ballpoint pen this time because I don't give a fuck, with my windows down and my system up.



( I don't get it. )

Hello! I have a new drawing. I'm hosting it on Tinypic because Photos.cx is being DDOSed right now. I've also refrained from hiding it behind a LJ-cut, because I don't think you should have to click through for just one picture. Let me know if you agree with these decisions.



I should practice figure drawing more.

HLS orientation started today. Nothing really comic-worthy happened, but I drew this anyway.



( I don't get it. Why are we talking about Shakespeare in a law class? )

My site's back up. Still haven't done anything about the ugly design, though. Totally open to suggestions right now.

I did put up the Canada trip photos.

So the other day I needed to sell a laptop. Specifically, this one--



( What could possibly go wrong? )

Well, my website should be back soon, but the length of the downtime has convinced me of the necessity of a LJ. Plus, all the other artists are getting them.

I was going to save the title "Pap Torts" for a more legal-oriented blog, but I couldn't think of any other witty names. Well, maybe I'll post a bit about being a law student. Mostly I'm thinking I'll just use this blog for random thoughts and sketches that don't warrant a big ol' falutin' posting on my website. (I'd turn my website into a blog, but I already got 1000 business cards printed with the URL.)

Anyway, if you were looking for my Touhou promo comic from Otakon, I'll post it right here, in a vain attempt to convince all you readers I can draw better than the crap I'll be tossing out here.

( Minoriko and Shizuha? Who the hell are those? )
