Re: The Pre-AO Anxiety Chat Thread
 that class was awesome  i negotiated an alimony settlement for my client that was  too bad it was just a mock exercise  family law, here i come  (not really)
ok, people throwing accusations at my fedalness. it was not any muzals or muzzerers (i don't count andreea as a muzal yet) so i'll let it slide.
hilde, i don't defend rafa as much because a) we're in the rafa forum, so besides jm's "he dopes, he dopes, i go crazy" the only real hater talk comes in during his matches when everyone's all hopped up anyways. i use my smileys well at those points  b) rafa's pressers aren't pored over like they're the holy grail. it irritates the shi* out of me when people do this for roger every single time. not as bad as the posters who wish we were all singing khumbaya because they're themselves amazing people, but close
scoobs, if you make snide comments about roger then you can't keep claiming you're bored. just like he has detractors who have the right to their opinion, we have the right to call them on their baseless comments.
what else? oh yeah, hilde i read about your nephew but i was in a hurry to get to class. sorry  my aunt is the principal of a school for autistic kids and she often shares stories like this with me. i loved hearing about it
i think that's all that caught my eye for now. did i mention i am a rockstar at negotiation?

Re: The Pre-AO Anxiety Chat Thread
I wish I could, but we don't get 360 where I live. I'm stuck on an audio feed.
EDIT: Alimony negotiation.

It was good  but not impressive. Not too many arias actually. For every aria there was an orchestral piece from an opera. 7 arias in total and 4 encores (the Greek public won't let you get away easily  ).
I wasn't very happy with the orchestra (National Orchestra of Athens) but that was to be expected after being used to the Boston Symphony Orchestra.  The conductor was funny, a young, slim and very tall guy, extremely energetic (sometimes it looked as if he was trying to dance ballet other times as if he was happily skipping around on the podium  )
Kaufmann was good but nothing extraordinary. I liked his voice and I was expecting a bit more after he sang the first aria. He sang Recondita armonia really well and I thought he would warm up and get even better, but he stayed at the same level.
The encores were: Il lamento di Federico from Cilea's Arlesiana (my favorite tonight as far as performance is concerned), 'Non ti scordar di me', 'La donna e mobile' and 'Dein ist mein ganzes herz'.
I am attaching the program. Most of it is in Greek but you have taken classes so you'll be able to figure it out I guess.

Re: The Pre-AO Anxiety Chat Thread
Ancic sucks, Rafa would pummel him. I'd rather he played him in R1 than someone dangerous like Isner or The Gooch

I like Rafa and Fed's chances over both Nole and Murray in best of 5. Rafa making the semis is unlikely though.
So true.

this is how true fans should talk, downplay the chances and no jinxing  rafito  please please please make the final

if anyone needs alimony things sorted out, they should take heart knowing that law schools are doing their best to churn out good negotiators

I'm not and never will be. My fangirlism is very centrated, no matter who's the object of my affection

There are some posibilities that Ancic is 1R against Rafa but it's a sure thing that Jordan is trolling
