One Whooooole point! Woohoo!

I took my first Torts quiz 3 weeks ago, and we got them back today, FINALLY! I had totally forgotten that we would, so that was a nice surprise. It was worth a maximum of 1 point of our final class grade, and you could get either 1, 1/2, or 0 points. Obviously, not a major part of the class, but it was still nice to get that big one point! : ) The quiz was just on intentional torts though, and it was easy. We've been warned though, that that is the easiest part of the class, and we're plowing through negligence for the next 4 months or so.

We were discussing res ipsa loquitur today, and had 3 cases of people slipping and falling on banana peels. It seemed funny, because the state of the banana peel (yellow vs. black and crusty) helped determine the outcome of the trials. My first year law student advice to you is, if you are going to slip and fall on a banana peel somewhere, make sure it is black, dirty and crusty! LOL And, if you happen to slip on some milk puddled somewhere, please take the time to note if it is warm and odorous. Hopefully, for your sake, it will be! :)
