I have a few points to make.

First, I have found the difference between whiskey and bourbon. After many people asking me, and being forced to answer, "I don't know," I know the answer. It is contained in a restaurant in Boulder called the West End Pub. Brian and I visited the West End Pub because I chose it. I chose it because it said "pub" and I figured, "Oh, 'pub' means Guinness." But, sadly, I was wrong. The West End Pub contained generic food at high prices. Its only saving grace was a full page of bourbon in the drink menu. I have never before seen a restaurant so exclusively devoted to bourbon.

So, what's the difference? Well, bourbon is a type of whiskey. Most whiskey is made of 50% corn and 50% other grains. Bourbon, to be called bourbon, has to contain from 65% to 75% corn and 35% to 25% other grains. That's it. It has nothing to do with where it's made (although most of the country's bourbon is made in Kentucky), like champagne. It has to do only with the proportion of corn it contains relative to other grains: bourbon contains more corn than whiskey.

Second, Blue Moon Pumpkin Ale comes out the first week of October, and I plan to be there. Doesn't that sound delicious? I think I've had pumpkin cider before; Matt, didn't we have pumpkin cider last Halloween? I seem to remember drinking some while watching Wild Zero.

Third, I've been downloading and watching episodes of Penn & Teller: Bullshit! and I like it. Each episode of the show de-bunks some commonly held political or social belief. In one episode, they de-bunk the validity of the Bible. In another, they call the efficacy of circumcision into question. In another show, they even suggest that recycling is a bad idea. I encourage those of you with Showtime to watch, and those without Showtime to ... ah, obtain the show via other means. It's a good show.

Fourth, teaching for The Princeton Review has proven to be a good job. High school students aren't as bad as we thought they were. They're usually tired, because (1) they had to get up early on Sunday to come to my class, or (2) they had to be at my class late on Wednesday. Here's my plan: make money with The Princeton Review for the next year. I'll take the LSAT in October, get a 170, and apply to Stanford Law School. After I'm accepted to Stanford Law School, I'll move to the Silicon Valley/San Francisco Bay area. Stanford has a deal with local renters to supply apartments in the area to Stanford students at a discount, so that will be good. During the summer after my first year, I'll intern at the Electronic Frontier Foundation. I'm at Stanford for three years, during which time I get involved with the law review there, as well as the Center for Internet & Society, where I'll help work on technology-related briefs. My specialties will be intellectual property and constitutional law. Hopefully I'll get to be taught by Larry Lessig, Stanford's celebrity intellectual property lawyer. I'll graduate and go to work for the Electronic Frontier Foundation in San Francisco, or maybe even the ACLU, where I'll fight for your civil liberties in both the digital and analog spheres. Take that, The Man!

Fifth, Scott, if you're reading this, we've been worried sick about you. Where are you? No one has heard from you in a long time!
