perpetual statute

Read a random definition: annoyance

A quick definition of perpetual statute:

A perpetual statute is a law that doesn't have an end date or a way to be cancelled. It's like a rule that will always be there, unless someone makes a new law to change it. Laws can be made by different groups, like the government or a court, and they can be about different things, like how to behave or what punishments to give for breaking the law. A perpetual statute is a law that will always be in place, unless someone decides to change it.

A more thorough explanation:

A perpetual statute is a law that contains no provision for repeal, abrogation, or expiration. It means that the law will remain in effect forever unless it is specifically repealed or amended by another law.

For example, the United States Constitution is a perpetual statute because it has no expiration date and cannot be repealed. Another example is the Magna Carta, which is a British statute that has been in effect since 1215 and has never been repealed.

These examples illustrate how a perpetual statute is a law that is intended to be permanent and cannot be easily changed or repealed.

17:31

they definitely overcharged me in the restaurant but it was a good wine for a fair price (couldve been better)

Pinotage from South Africa. If you get a good bottle it is unique and beautiful. If you get a bad one it tastes like grape cough syrup. Last time I had a Valpolicella was Valentines Day. I normally do not like the cranberry notes you get from the semi dried Corvina grapes but it was a very nice wine for Valentines day.

Crazy upcoming grapes I have also been into recently are Kerner and Solaris but really, all wine is good.

i went to a winery near cornell called castel grisch (take notes wasp!!!) and they only grew local varietals, even one produced by cornell viticultural students and faculty called "cayuga". the other was chancellor and the winery did a blend of those two grapes

The father/mother of Cayuga is a grape called Seyval Blanc and some other grape. I have never had it but it is on my list. Good choice. @sireggan
HELP! I hadn't yet completed my application to ASU (still waiting on both LOR's as well as an updated undergrad transcript), but for some reason, the application status in lsac says "complete" and I received an email from ASU saying that they are reviewing my application. Has this ever had something like this happen?
I'm worried that I'll get a denial since it's not even truly complete, and then I wont be able to apply again for this 2023-2024 cycle (the application deadline is July 15th by the way)
@SirEggan: notes taken! thank you
@ValleyH: congratulations, excited for you for this new chapter in your life

i think worst case you come off as overexcited for a waitlist admission
which isnt bad really
and best case you toss your name in the mix for a spot if it opens up
