Miscellaneous Trivia

Note to legal types - things not to do:

1) Ask a Supreme Court justice if he's ever sodomized his wife.

2) Party with these guys.

3) Develop a split personality.

4) Take the Wendy's chili case without a substantial retainer and hourly billing scheme. Especially now there's leopards involved.

5) Let French people edit your brief.

In other semi-legal stuff:

Will Work for Favorable Dicta has the new online Professional Responsibility Exam. Just when you thought it would be a no-brainer . . .


Salieri has also stumbled across this site entirely devoted to tracking the career of Henry Earl aka James Brown, a guy who's been arrested over 900 times for alcohol-related offenses:
Well, Henry has earned something of a cult following. . . . Henry's exactly the right balance between extremely pitiful and incredibly amusing. You feel bad for him on one hand, but then the guy looks so strangely happy in (most of) his mugshots. And if you read the stories about him, you'll see that he's got an awful lot of personality. Certainly more than your basic town drunk. Henry is an icon, a work of performance art. He's like an Otis Campbell for the 21st century. He's our schadenfreudic touchstone of intoxication.

LOL.
