GMU law school renaming after Antonin Scalia hits snag

[iceberg]

Antonin Scalia School of Law.

scares the poo out of me that first, $30mil was given to this university who suddenly changed their name to the above. ok, no that part doesn't scare me.

what scares me is this got past so many college professors, alumni, staff and faculty and no one caught the acronym.

Wait a sec. Hold up.

I'm left wondering whether some genius at George Mason thought up the acronym? Or did the anonymous benefactor donate $30 million on the condition that the university's law school be renamed The Antonin Scalia School of Law?

Wealth and intelligence do not necessarily go hand-in-hand but I doubt anyone ponying up $30 million didn't recognize an acronym of his or her making. Perhaps someone is wealthy enough that they thought the large sum would somehow allow the proposed name change escape scrutiny long enough for an official announcement was made.

Another one of those really stupid movies, like Anchorman, that was actually funny with a ton of classic quotes...

I'm pretty sure I haven't seen that movie since the 80s. I just read that they re-released the movie on DVD (2009, the original was in 2003) with a pristine transfer from the 35mm film and this time included all the cut scenes they took out of the original release.

I would love to watch it again if Netflix or Amazon has it. I shall check!
