Sorry I've been silent during all of these embiggening and cromulent posts - but as of yesterday I'm done with the New York bar exam. It sucked a lot. But its over now and hopefully I won't have to take it again, ever.
I don't have any crapulent comments at the moment, but hopefully I will soon.

Yes, this is work
Although I haven't heard anything on it to rival Talkin' Seattle Grunge Rock Blues or as we referred to it in the 4 Angry Listners days, Roots Grunge, I feel obliged to post the ecard to Todd Snider's latest. Yes, it's on the label I work for, and yes I'm sure there are people being paid to post this to blogs. I however am not one of them (and in all likelihood they are interns, so therefore unpaid), I only deal with numbers. Regardless, enjoy all the same.

How hard is it to get a lawyer to return your call
Multiple calls to Will and Reed went unreturned this weekend, which has me wondering whether I did something to piss both of them off. I had no idea it was so difficult to get free legal advice.
Regardless, a few things for you all to think about:
- Laura (who lurks on this blog regularly), asked me today, "What does that word (embiggen) mean? I looked it up at dictionary.com, but it wasn't listed?" I explained it was a perfectly cromulent word.
- In other Laura news, her counselor at Deloitte suggested she give the lead partner of the west coast practice a call, just to re-introduce herself. I suggested she have him over, head to the swimming pool in back and tell him she had some serious plans for the firm, and hoped to be moving up in a big way, but only if he was on her team.
- I'm due to be in Vegas August 8-11, and am considering staying for the weekend since Laura is likely out of town in China. Any one else interested?
- Eddy's power must still be out because I can't imagine he wouldn't have at least commented on Will's post. Eddy, you're still the prettiest Asian transvestite we know, don't ignore us. We promise not to talk about the shorts.
- Georgetown is once again scheduling some real heavyweights. Will, I'll bet you're glad you paid top dollar for Towson and Winston Salem St.

Thank you Bill, for that Cromulent Post
Rather than commenting on Bill's post, I thought that a new post might encourage some others to end their silence and further embiggen the blog. Reed, for example, should have plenty of time to post random crap while he studies for the bar exam. And once Eddy's power comes back on, I feel like he must have something to share on the subject of asian transvestite prostitutes.
Thailand does indeed look quite nice. Sadly, I have not had a chance for a real vacation this summer. I can post some pictures of my office, though, if people want to see what I've been up to.

A huge post to enbiggen the soul of the blog
This blog has been dead for too long. Nothing like vacation snaps to liven things up.
Laura and I just got back from a little post graduation trip to Thailand. We spent 3 nights in Bangkok and a week in Phuket. Thailand is awesome, and I highly recommend you check it out if you have the chance. BKK is a really cool city -- like New York but hotter and with more Transvestites (asian men that look almost as pretty as Eddy). Highlights included this place called Bed Supperclub, where the meals were served in bed. Sadly we were not there for models night, but let the record state that I did not kick Laura out of bed for eating, although no crackers were served. Also, if you need a custom suit/shirt/tux made, I highly recommend the Rajawongse brothers. As you can see by some of their clientele below, they do some pretty good work, and have been featured in the New York and LA Times. You can send them measurements and get dress shirts custom made for only $25 (plus shipping).
Phuket was slightly more relaxing although there were still plenty of tranies. We stayed at the J.W. Marriott, which was fab (especially the breakfast buffet that included ice cream amongst other things). Interestingly enough we met some girl at the marriott bar from DC, who works for a company building highrises in Ballston. I accused her of killing carpool, but since she didn't know what it was, the conversation was rather onesided. Besides picking fights, getting fatter and drinking at the swim up bar, we also got out to see a few things. The following two snaps are from our kayaking trip around the islands of Phang Na bay (a couple James Bond movies have been filmed there).
Although not as exciting as the cave kayaking, we also sailed out to Phi Phi island (where they filmed the movie "The Beach"). Unfortunately the waves were too rough to go ashore, so this is as close as we got.
