First day of a new semester of LS today, and it's been a long one.  Property seems interesting enough, I suppose, but my Wednesday is just awful . 8.30 -500 PM with only hashed out breaks.  And UVA still hasn't given us our grades.  Other things:

1) VA residents who want to vote in the primary should request their absentee ballot ASAP.  Unless you were considering voting for McCain; in that case, you can safely disregard this message.

2) I'm not optimistic about the Super Bowl:  The Vegas spread is New England -12.5 (too be fair, that's a good line to bet against...somebody must be, because it's down from 14), but still... lets consider:

New York Giants: Have outscored their opponents by 22 points

New England Patriots: Have outscore their opponents by 20 points per game.
