I hoped to see my team in finales, but they flopped this time
Well, better luck next time, and again, congratz to France!
Yeah, and it was a bit of a surprise to see Qatar in final... Obviously the rules are flawed, to have allowed them to have a team with just 3 "real" Qatarians, and all the other players were "bought". Nonetheless, kudos to them for getting so far with a team like that

I can't say I do none of those things. At least, I like to talk big.
But yesterday, I was able to, as they say, put my money where my mouth is. I won what is called a motion for summary judgment.
Essentially, the entire case was decided in my client's favor. And my client is happy. And I am extraordinarily happy.
It was a defining moment.
I actually stood there in court yesterday and got to do one of those "objection" things to a judge. And then the judge sustained the objection.
It literally caused the opposing counsel to shut the f*ck up.
And then promptly lose.
So now I get to help my client evict somebody, and it has been a long time coming. And I feel successful now like I have never felt successful before.
And it feels... Quite good.

Great, Pooter! I hope there's more like this to come for you! Hold on to that moment whenever there are obstacles showing up!
Btw, I love those kind of "big" speeches in court when it serves fairness and justness and when striking logic makes its way. That's why I love movies centering on court room stories .

If this were to be true, and if it were to catch on, it would be nothing but a good thing. If a robot can do the same job as a basic top 40 DJ, then a robot can economically replace one, and eventually it's going to be very difficult to find a job if that's the kind of DJ you are. Then the only human DJs who will be able to draw a crowd anymore are going to be ones with enough talent and musical knowledge to provide an experience better than that of a robot. I love this. If we're letting computers do all the work for us already, why not just make them the superstars?

And now for something completely different...
I decided to quit the job I hated in Calgary, go back to the old lower paying job that I loved in Edmonton, and start applying for grad schools. Crazy! No? Studying for the GRE exam is intense, especially while moving.

Thanks man.
And I wish you the best of luck with that endeavor!
