Society's Stance on Crying Babies in Fancy Restaurants
Last night I was getting lots of studying done (torts, commercial paper, secured transactions) at the Peninsula hotel. And then this baby showed up. Accompanied by parents, of course.
The baby cried for an hour straight, and I wish I were exaggerating.
So…what’s society’s stance on taking crying babies into fancy restaurants? Are we cool with it? Do we sympathize with the parents who have enough to worry about without trying to hunt down a trustworthy babysitter on a weeknight…or do we want (deserve?) some peace and quiet when we’re paying to eat at a nice place? ($16 for lobster ravioli appetizer, which, I learned, contained four pieces of ravioli…COME on.)

My Incredibly Exciting, Incredible day
Woke up and went to the Hyatt hotel to study for the bar exam. Came back to my apartment for lunch. Went to the Peninsula hotel to study for the bar exam. Came back to my apartment to work out. Went to the Intercontinental hotel to study for the bar exam. Came back to my apartment to write this blog entry, watch LOST, and go to sleep.
Wait...this is probably the sort of day I shouldn't be blogging about...sorry!

You can assume that most days for the next two months will be equally exciting.

I think that you should blog about the same day over and over again. Really give the kids a feel for studying for the bar exam.
Babies in restaurants are
Babies in restaurants are fine. Screaming in restaurants is bad. Screaming babies in restaurants must therefor be determined using a balancing test.
Babies are cute, but aside from re-population are pretty useless.
Screaming really bugs the hell out of me and disrupts my "game".
Screaming babies cons outweigh their pros.
No screaming babies. If a baby starts screaming, one parent should attend to it. The most egalitarian way to decide is to flip a coin. If you don't have a coin, flip the baby. If it lands heads up, then someone takes care of it. If it lands heads down.... well, that's a whole new problem then, isn't it?
