Not me, mind you. Ever since my last conversation with Prof. Civ Pro, I have briefed each case extremely thoroughly. I've done web searches to see if there have been relevant articles published about the case. I've checked commercial outlines to see if I understood it correctly. I've looked up the case in Glannon to read what he has to add. I've rehearsed questions in my head. In short, I have been utterly prepared to feel that Socratic love.
However, Prof. Civ Pro is playing hard to get. I have not been called on, despite these heroic and totally unmaintainable efforts. No, I am not feeling any love at all. He hasn't even looked at me as he skims over the class for a victim.
Harrumph, I say. I am declaring a cessation to any further excessive case reading. If he calls on me, I'm secretly going to say to myself, "You had your chance, buddy!"
That'll sure show him.

So what happened to that poor unprepared somebody? I have a morbid facination with Prof. Kingsfield-esque smackdowns.
Oh, that was classic. Among other lines uttered was this one: "Did you, or did you not, understand the portion of the syllabus where we discussed class preparation?"
He wanted to get going through, so he didn't prolong it too long.
