New Year's Resolutions, Lawyer's Edition
Law jokes may be a bit funnier to me than to most, but WSJ's Law Blog posted a few resolutions which I thought worthy of sharing.
BigLaw Partner: Spend more time with the family. This year I mean it.
BigLaw Associate: Save more. Bill more.
The SEC: Stop bringing cases in the Southern District.
Justice Department: Get the bankers before the statute of limitations runs out.
Supreme Court: Keep cameras out of the court, knock out a few opinions by July.
Plaintiffs Lawyer: Stop settling so often.
ABA: Spend more time with law schools.
In-house counsel: Avoid the word "billable."
President Obama: Remember to get Justice Kennedy a present.
My own new year's resolutions pertain to spiritual exercises a la St. Ignatius and finding the perfect kim chi. If anyone can suggest superior goals, I'm all ears.

Listen to the Teaching American History Podcast
Teaching American History Podcast
The Teaching American History Podcast is based on programs for teachers sponsored by the Ashbrook Center. These seminars are designed to encourage teachers to seriously examine significant events in American history in light of the principles of the American founding, and also to encourage the use of primary source materials in the classroom. The seminars, which include both lecture and discussion, are taught by leading scholars in their field from throughout the nation.
Might be nice to see the allegedly freedom-loving bloggers of NLT post something about NDAA. It would at least provide a (completely valid) opportunity to rail against Obama; I know how much the right loathes him (even if for mostly b.s. reasons - like he's a Muslim socialist fascist and suchlike). NDAA seems extremely blog-worthy.
Instead, though, we get stuff like this... "joke."
I suppose a beauty pageant link will be next. The Founding Fathers would be so proud.
Craig, I think you should revolt against whoever it is that forces you to read this blog and make your comments.
