Law and Order

This is why you don't mess with a law student anytime near finals. Seriously: http://www.kpho.com/news/17931454/detail.html#- It's so good to know that I'm not the only one who would FREAK OUT if someone touched my laptop near finals time. It's also good to know that law students are blessed with special ninja skills when their babies...er...computers are threatened. Fight or flight. Come to think of it, this brave law student probably analyzed all of the torts and criminal infractions this perp had engaged in before deciding how to proceed. All I have to say? Your apartment is your castle, brother. But your laptop is your fair maiden. Way to prioritize!

YEAH! I really love that story, and can completely relate. I used to hug my laptop during finals first year.

We all have Brooktynn to thank (she sent me the link).

Great find Eric! Good reminder to back up your data. It probably didn’t hurt that he knew the tort liability rules for use of force in defense of property. Good old escalation.

I love that you called laptops babies. You have finally caught the vision.
