Sour Grapes - Law Firm sues Cardinals

[Mulli]

Otter: Point of parliamentary procedure!
Hoover: Don't screw around, they're serious this time!
Otter: Take it easy, I'm pre-law.
Boon: I thought you were pre-med.
Otter: What's the difference?

...

Otter: Better listen to him, Flounder, he's in pre-med.

That's what you get trying to blog and bill hours at the same time.

I'd listen to Ouchie...he was pre-law!

I thought he was in pre-med but I hear it's much the same thing

Living in a third floor walkup, I don't have to shovel snow. Just brushed off the car and drove to the Loop to work.

oops...i spoke too soon...we got it and i decided to work from home....this is not what tom skilling said about the nw subs last night.

maybe it's the tax attorney side of me, but i don't get this one. i've been practicing for 12 years and i'm a member of three bar associations.

and pre-law is neither a real major nor even a study concentration.

it's a wannabe thing....

This is something I didn't understand about the process. The Cards only had 17500 season tickets sold in 2003 yet people like yourself couldn't get prime seats on the home side. I guess that there were a lot fewer seats between the 30s at the new digs.

I know that I couldn't get seats in the Frat House similar to those we had at SDS. Wanted to sit by Jstadvl like before but those seats were long gone by the time I selected. But knowing the dvl he probably paid off the Cardinals to make sure I couldn't sit by him.

Where did the Endzone STH's get first choice after the one endzone at the new stadium was filled? Maybe that's what happened to the prime real estate on the home side?

From the 3rd row-

the only time my view is obstructed is when the camera man comes by on his trolley then everyone stands up from the 1st and 2nd rows till he moves on!! He has a little monitor on the back side, I guess it's supposed to make up for the fact he is completely blocking everyone's view! My seats at SDS were 16th row behind the bench and just perfect!

I am trying to get hired on permanent as a billable hour position. Careful what you wish you type of a thing I guess.

I have no idea. I just got licensed and no one will give me an associate position. I am still working as a law clerk. But me and other unwanted young attorneys have begun to form our own law offices. It will be tough but I look forward to the challenge.

And we'll be mostly plaintiffs work so billable hours won't be a huge factor, although they will be there in certain cases with statutory attorney's fees or types of cases in which we will bill hourly as opposed to contingency.
