Home Stretch
Spent eight or so hours yesterday surfing LexisNexis and hammering out the first draft of my memo. "Draft" might be a strong word for the helter-skelter arrangement of words on a page, but I'm feeling generous.
My Torts professor is talking about consortium- the rights of a spouse to sue for the loss of companionship and/or sexual relations. He keeps saying "consor-Tee-um," because he's from the North. I've always pronounced the word as "consor-Shee-um," because that's the way I've always heard it.
I just checked dictionary.com and, apparently, we're both right. Oh well. I hate contests, but the story line is always more interesting when there's a winner and a loser.
