Unexpected perks of getting beat by Ken Jennings

[kellinator]

I was scouting some free food left over from the law school orientation (ongoing, so I should be able to score several free meals -- me, mercenary? Hell yes!) when some law students started walking towards me. One of them said "You were on Jeopardy!"

These two guys had remembered seeing me this summer and thought I was one of Ken's better competitors. We had a nice chat.

Why is this worthy of a post? Because it's the first time in my memory that law students have looked at me with anything even approaching respect.

I used to be a law student (and an instructor at a law school), and I've looked at you with respect (OK: it was more awe and disbelief). Does that count? If so, I was first...

Awe and disbelief... that works for me. I take it this was over the profanities I was screaming at your ex-asshat? ;)

Umm. uh. Ex?
