Did pretty much the same on the GRE, MCAT and LSAT. Studied the most for the MCAT because there is subject matter material, like bio. and chem. Even took a review course.

Why take all three? Well, took GRE and MCAT when deciding between grad school in philosophy and med school. Chose grad school. After a few years of grad school and seeing the job market and the unreasonably tough life many of my smart cohorts were living, said, "screw it, going to law school" and took LSAT.

There's a lot of lawyers who say things like, "if I was any good at math I wouldn't have gone to law school." This kicks in my Skalanskyesque impulse to think, well if you suck at math it's probably because you're an idiot. I mean Leibniz was a lawyer and a philosopher and that didn't prevent him from inventing calculus.

This.

If you want to know about a man's character, play golf with him. I'm sure Trump uses foot wedges, makes up excuses as to why shots didn't count, drops balls on the course as if he found his lost ball, misses a 3 foot putt and claims "that was good" as he is driving his golf cart off the ****ing green.

Yea all you need to know about the guy you could easily learn on the course.

'Not Leibniz' = idiot? Jeez, that's a steep curve.

Sklansky sees himself at the top of the curve. "Every heard of Leibniz? Newton? Morons!"

I mean I don't have anything against Sklansky other than that he's annoying, for well documented reasons. He might well be as good at standardized tests as he claims.

Good effort to distract from a horrible Senate bill.

I actually think he's using the health bill to distract from the no tapes story, but the concept is the same.

Meantime, I remember hearing some analyst say that everything that goes on in the White House is recorded, and certainly it makes sense that there would be cameras in many places there. So its pretty realistic to believe there are recordings somewhere. He's just saying he didn't make his own recordings.

First question at the Spicey (edit: I mean Huckabeast) briefing must be:

"So is the President upset that making up a lie about tapes earned him his own Special Counsel investigation?"

Resident attorneys, does this not open up tampering/ witness intimidation?

Who finds that stuff annoying, though? It's amusing.

Don't forget the tweet intimidating Yates the day before her testimony. Or the obstruction around Yates with Nunes delaying her testimony over and over with open and obvious help from Trump. Or the "Stay strong" message to Flynn about his talks with the FBI.

There's never just one smoking gun with Trump, SO STOP ASKING FOR IT DISINGENUOUS TRUMPTARDS!

Apparently we have to rely on "tapes" for this too. Wait, wasn't it tapes that did Nixon in?

seriously, riding a cart on a green ruins most greens

Serious question: what is the argument for letting a golfer of any kind serve as President? That has to be the biggest Constitutional oversight of them all.

OK, the slavery deal was arguably more ****ed up, but letting golfers run for office is definitely #2.

No it doesn't. It's incredibly stupid to do, beyond rude to other players that play the course, but the green will be fine. If the green is wet, it's obviously much worse.

Somebody, I think it was Bill Maher, said people should've voted for Hillary to finally have a president who doesn't ****ing golf.
