Monday Roundup
Matt Homann presents his manifesto for law students. Just to give a taste:
10. Experienced lawyers work with clients. Young lawyers work with paper. You like working with paper, right?12. Except for prosecutors and public defenders, nobody tries cases anymore. Especially not second year associates.
My father was a civil trial lawyer. He mentioned a long time ago that too many lawyers not only didn't try cases, they didn't know how too. He could just run the clock out on them without ever making an offer.

Here's something that confirms a nagging fear: Aid to palestinians correlates with murders the following year. If money pours in, bodies pour out, and vice versa. While correlation does not equal causation, tell me again, why do we send even a nickle to them?
More evidence of the imbalance between horses and their hind ends: single men using the family bathroom. One more hazard of travel - selfish jerks.
My daughter, for reasons best known to herself, loves America's Next Top Model (my reasons should be obvious). Tom McMahon actually tracked down the blog of one the contestants where we discover that all is not as it seems on the show.
