“Die Hard” is on TV right now. Are we really starting the Christmas season in July?

I am not proud to admit this, but sometimes when I teach M&A for me it’s purely transactional.

Amazing the number of showers that don’t even come with cupholders for your drink.

In England when you hear a tiny, soft little bicycle bell ding, that means you are about to be run down and pulverized in the street.

I know I need to put either a Thai or Cambodian flag in my X profile, but I know almost nothing about these countries. Could someone tell me which side will be more popular so I can be seen supporting it?

I love the Coast Guard but I feel their time could possibly be better spent doing other things.

As a teacher, this is literally a daily contemplation for me.

I do not understand cricket. I literally have no idea what is going on.

I love to say in law review articles “there is a rich literature on this topic” and then drop a footnote that cites one single thing I wrote.

I have one last weekend in the UK. Where should I go? Otherwise I'll just end up going to the Greenwich Maritime Museum again.

Law school dean search committees: Here's my offer... Say your committee already has a preferred candidate, but they're mid. You bring me out, I'll tell the unvarnished truth about your school and go down in flames. Bingo, your preferred candidate will look like a star!

I am almost done with my five weeks in England and the accomplishment I'm probably most proud of is my scootering around town.

As a law professor, I'd never had the opportunity to teach a class that is the same all over the world. The Law of the Sea class is like that. It's an interesting feeling to know that a law student from any country could walk in and follow along just like at home.

I hate it when Outlook scolds me for sending emails outside of people's working hours. How else am I supposed to shame them for not working at all hours?

During my time over here in the UK I've been trying to popularize the idea of renaming England as "Baja Scotland," but haven't made much progress.
