  • Top Ten Things Not to Include in Your Bar Exam Essay:

    1. God's law (hereinafter "GL") is clear on the following point...

    2. 3 generations of imbeciles is enough

    3. Whoever is in need of evidence, he shall go on every third day to shout before the witness' doorway.

    4. If an overseer or a fisherman ordered to the service of the king does not come, but sends a hireling in his stead, that same overseer or fisherman shall be put to death, and his house shall go into the possession of the hireling.

    5. If a woman in a quarrel injure the testicle of a man, one of her fingers they shall cut off. And if a physician bind it up and the other testicle which is beside it be infected thereby, or take harm; or in a quarrel she injure the other testicle, they shall destroy both of her eyes

    6. If defendant shirks or takes to heels, plaintiff shall lay hands on him.

    7. Evil is as evil does

    8. If the wife of a man be walking on the highway, and a man seize her, say to her "I will surely have intercourse with you," if she be not willing and defend herself, and he seize her by force and rape her, whether they catch him upon the wife of a man, or whether at the word of the woman whom he has raped, the elders shall prosecute him, they shall put him to death. There is no punishment for the woman.

    9. While the defendant may have escaped punishment on Earth, he will get his just deserts in the afterlife.

    10. Since, then, the primacy of the Apostolic See is established by the merit of St. Peter (who is the chief among the bishops), by the majesty of the city of Rome, and finally by the authority of a holy council, no one, withot inexcusable presumption, may attempt anything against the authority of that see.

Why isn't the Yazzoo City prison in Yazzoo City? Did it get moved like the Biloxi casinos?

I hate law, part 793
 
From today's WSJ lawblog:

Like many an overworked trial lawyer, Brad Butwin rarely eats dinner with his family. As the chair of O’Melveny & Myers’s New York litigation department, Butwin typically returns to his Long Island home at 8:30 p.m. — on a good day. By then, his wife and four children — whose schedules are even more hectic than his — have long since dispersed from the kitchen. For Butwin, takeout and leftovers are de rigueur.

this guy's been practising for over 20 years, the chair of a department with hundreds of underlings and peons at his disposal and he can't rig his personal life to a minimum level of quality such that he can spend 30 minutes a night several nights a week at the dinner table with his kids. Or he doesn't want to.

Law sucks. You lawyers all suck. Fuck all of you!!!.......I feel like taking the safety off the 9er in my desk. Merde.

And his family doesn't serve him pie.

He's the type of person that ruins the profession for normal people. If he sets the bar, what normal person wants to jump over it?

Big 2. Even in sleepy, family-friendly Beervana, there are too many of his type in the law game.
