General Off-Topic Board / Tivo, Comcast DVR, etc etc et al (recording tv)
« on: August 13, 2006, 10:48:23 AM »
if I want to record tv, what are my options? I'll have comcast service. I can rent a dvr box for $15 a month thru comcast, or i can buy a tivo box ($50-$100) and pay $12 a month for the service. I know there are other models of dvrs, but do they allow the same onscreen programming as tivo? I'm just kinda confused to what my options are - do I have to do tivo or comcast dvr, or can I buy something that will record tv (ala a VCR) without me having to subscribe to a "service". I see dvrs for sale at best buy but i'm not quite sure how they work. . Any  help is appreciated.

What do you guys think?

Odd couple. Apparently, Snoop performed with Taylor in Bama. Taylor even played the harmonica and sang the chorus on Gin and Juice (I *&^% you not, folks. You can't make this kinda stuff up)

Black Law Student Discussion Board / Which University are You?

My result (of course, and after a few tries):



You're Stanford University!
You survived tragedy, then scorn, to rise to the top of your
potential. Though someone on the East coast added insult to your injury,
you've come back to be the best of the West. Now you've come so far from
your setbacks that many complain you are simply too happy and couldn't
possibly be sincere. After all, you do spend far too much time in the sun.
Though some complain that you're not meaningful, you're just trying to
prove that you could really Stanford something.

Black Law Student Discussion Board / Relationship Dealbreakers
« on: May 25, 2006, 10:20:15 AM »
What are your dealbreakers? A dealbreaker is something that is zero tolerance...if the person does this, we can't get together. We'll have some space for "strong preferences" later.


My only ones are smoking, wearing athletic jerseys, racist/sexist/homophobic, and not doing what you say you will do (if you say you will do xyz, then do it!! I refuse to nag). I'm sure some others will come to me once everyone else chips in.

Black Law Student Discussion Board / 1Ls to Be .... worried about grades? Worried in general?
« on: May 15, 2006, 09:43:36 AM »
I know it's been talked about a little bit, but wondering if anyone else is feeling any anxiety about this upcoming school year. Mine isn't overwhelming, but it occupies a good bit of my thoughts. Also, I'm reading 1L and I think that's making it worse  :D


some of my concerns...

1. grades. i'm worried that i just won't get it. i know everyone feels this way, but to a certain extent i think i've let stuff like that stupid sander study get under my skin. i think this worry is especially hard on students of color - sometimes we can internalize all the isht about not being good enough without AA

2. will i socialize with people outside of my affinity affiliations. when in new situations, we all tend to seek out what is familiar and comfortable - and for me, that's Black people (and Asian people and other mixed people). Given that HLS has such a large concentration, I'm worried that I'll kick it with Black people to the exclusion of everyone else - which is what I did in undergrad b/c I had so many adjustment issues. I'm going to make a conscious effort to spread out my affiliations, but I don't wanna become one of those ppl that I didn't like in undergrad (a Black person who didn't speak to other Black people).

3. my roommate is a friend and will prob be a study partner, and i'm worried that we'll get sick of each other



Anyone else nervous? Current students feel free to weigh in.
