Point?

A friend of mine recently asked me what the point of this blog is.  But not in an accusatory way.  As in, not "this blog is pointless", but more "is there some point I was supposed to be getting?"  And while this started as random rants (my hatred of dolphins, the perfection of the ice in the ER, or IL Exams and the inappropriate thoughts I was having during them), there is also a lot of Bollywood/music randomness (like amusing Afghani rap lyrics, translations to Persian/Indian or old Bollywood songs, or how one random bhangra song seems to be taking over the world).  And while this is keeping in line with being "Bakvaas, Banter, and Random Musings", or atleast the bakvaas part of the list, maybe I'll try to come up with some random point.

There is this hilarious blog called Stuff White People Like that inspired me to make the purpose of this blog a spoof of that, like maybe what law students like.  But unfortunately, I don't think law students seem to like a lot in general, and plus, any list like that would require me spending even more time with people who routinely do things like argue about the day's Con Law class discussion right, delaying taking already-poured shots of tequilla for 20 minutes to discuss the details of affirmative action programs in MI.  

The other option I thought of was writing about places I've found and really come to love around Charlottesville.  This was an especially good idea since I LOVE exploring places, until I realized I was in Charlottesville and that would be a very short list.  In fact, here it is: The dinner menu at The Blue Moon Diner and the food and beer at Beer Run. 

So it looks like random musings it will remain.  Speaking of which, who knew the drive between DC and Cville was so scenic?  I really think I could see myself living in Culpepper.  I'm not sure what they do in Culpepper, but I assume that they need lawyers there too.

OK fine, this is not Culpepper, VA.  It's a farm in the Alps.  But still, it vaguely looks like Culpepper, except replace the snowcapped Alps with the BlueRidge mountains, and replace the quaint mountain home with working farms.

And this is just some farm in China.  (http://travel.nantou.gov.tw/english/e_Attactions2_1.asp?view=8)
