Continuing (Humorous) Vexation

The sprinklers strike again.

This time, various banks of sprinklers popped up in random spots on campus. Seeing as this is the second time I've had to battle these devices (and considering Derek's warning that I get used to them) a short description is in order. The sprinklers on campus are not static. They don't arc back and forth. These water delivery systems rotate 360 degrees. Furthermore, they are oddly placed given this design. The sprinkler heads are situated next to the sidewalks, ensuring that their spray thoroughly soaks the established footpaths and any hapless travelers (read me). The scene: Alex trying to dodge between rotating arcs of water on his way to class. It's like the castle levels at the end of each world in Super Mario Brothers.

And as a side note, a lesson on irony.

My legal writing professor continues to send emails that are so poorly written that no one I've talked to is 100% sure what is assigned. So much for effective communication. And my legal research prof sent an email out today criticizing the lack of attention to detail (e.g., underlining as per proper Blue Book citation) on our last assignment. This email contained no fewer than three typos. Professor, teach thyself.
