I'm pretty sure it's fake. :innocent2:

[BrotherMan]

:^: Automatically Unfunny.

Fake Clarence: Funny. Real Clarence: Not.

Can't believe how brazen these RV corporations are. Just received two identical Gulfstream brochures in my office mailbox. Angered.

Thomas is all about the RV driving, though. I think that was half of his talk when he spoke at our law school.

The other half was that he liked having nerds as clerks.

Entirely out of sorts. Spent the last three hours trying to repair the mains lead on my outdoor refrigerator. Lost an entire pack of franks.

He's also a gourmand, and an assiduous critic of the Supreme Court cafeteria.

Sounds like he's trying to quit smoking.

Why do some think it is fake? It actually sounds like him.

Can't believe the argument I just had with the translator from Belarus. No manners whatsoever, left the bathroom a mess.12:38 PM May 19th from web

Probably my sister's ex-boyfriend. (http://www.freethought-forum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=20008)

:rofl: This is superb.
Interim secretary just embarassed me in front of Hnrbl Jstc Scalia. She said "Looks like the dandruff cream is working." Now he knows.

Back entrance blocked - Souter brunch reception. Had to go around front, ran into a group protesting Epperson v Arkansas. Made sense to me.6:36 AM May 7th from web

Now I have to look up Epperson v Arkansas.

Wow, they must be very determined to protest for nearly 50 years. They missed a lot of good tv, including all the House episodes and even west wing.

I'm pretty sure it's fake. :innocent2:

It IS real, my brother's girlfriend's sister told me that her friend from out of state's brother told him that this is real.

Clarence makes Bangor (http://twitter.com/clarencethomas/status/2266221110):

I'll be nibbling away at their absolutely divine pan seared foie gras (on toasted baguette with cashew butter and blueberry compote.)

He does eat very well --- or at least describes his eating very well

3rd Course - Oven Roasted Duck Breast with mascarpone and duck confit crepes, drizzled with pomegranate gastrique and red wine jus. (A+!!!)

If that's not him, whoever it is sure knows him very well and puts a lot of effort into this.

Real Clarence: Not.

Boy, howdy:

“n the early years of public schooling,” courts applied the doctrine of [I]in loco parentis to transfer to teachers the authority of a parent to “‘command obedience, to control stubbornness, to quicken diligence, and to reform bad habits.’” Morse, supra, at 413–414 (THOMAS, J., concurring) (quoting State v. Pendergrass, 19 N. C. 365, 365–366 (1837)). So empowered, schoolteachers and administrators had almost complete discretion to establish and enforce the rules they believed were necessary to maintain control over their classrooms. See 2 J. Kent, Commentaries on American Law 205 (1873) (“So the power allowed by law to the parent over the person of the child may be delegated to a tutor or instructor, the better to accomplish the purpose of education”); 1 W. Blackstone, Commentaries on the Laws of England 441 (1765) (“He may also delegate part of his parental authority, during his life, to the tutor or schoolmaster of his child; who is then in loco parentis, and has such a portion of the parent committed to his charge, viz. that of restraint and correction, as may be necessary to answer the purposes for which he is employed”). The perils of judicial policymaking inherent in applying Fourth Amendment protections to public schools counsel in favor of a return to the understanding that existed in this Nation’s first public schools, which gave teachers discretion to craft the rules needed to carry out the disciplinary responsibilities delegated to them by parents.

Safford United Sch. Dist. #1 v. Redding (http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/html/08-479.ZX2.html), 557 U.S. ___, ___ (2009) (Thomas, J., concurring in the judgment in part and dissenting in part).

[D. Scarlatti]

Damn. He got angry and shitcanned his account after another user chided him for misspelling "foie gras."

[Ensign Steve]

Are you sure it wasn't vm on there, chiding him for eating it?
