On this chilly autumn morning, I’m in the mood for some work product from “Recovering lawyer”,

professor and poet Barry George:

 

expert deposition–
folding and unfolding
his surgeon’s hands 

after the verdict
the tireless lawyer speaks
in falling snow 

first murder trial–
the D.A. arrives
in new gloves

  whose economy is it?  Another great post by Granny D over at Lessig’s place.  After

  
  

  enthusing, “I love this blog world–you make a general statement and then some people

  
  

  write a book for you about it.,” Granny opines on protectionism, Economists and “their

  
  

  hunchbacked evil blogger assistants.”

  
  

   

  
  

    Fed84 has shone his bright light of truth on the Judge Bauer story we covered yesterday. Do not miss it. (How to keep your docket cleared) TalkLeft has also featured Judge Bauer’s dis-benchment today.

MyShingle is wondering how any self-respecting young lawyer would accept a life of

humiliating grunt work as a “contract” lawyer for Big Law rather than solo practice.  I bet

there are a lot of sad stories (financial need, misguided dreams, etc.) behind the phenomenon.

 

Meanwhile, in Mad. County, Evan Schaeffer is wondering just How Abe Lincoln finds the time?
