O'Quinn's Remains
RIP
I think that dressing in costume is what keeps this student a child . . . . That is, it keeps him in a state of "arrested development."
He should have gone to class as a preserved moose.
My platform-shoe firm is hosting a holiday "At Ease" weekend. It gives us a chance to let our hair down, although I have a head start in that department. I'd better not stand too close to the band, or people might think I'm in it!
This guy bears an uncanny resemblance to Artie Fufkin, the adorable little ranker who was responsible for the worst record promotion campaign I had ever seen. I think we sold a hundred copies of Smell the Glove in the Midwest that summer.
Maybe he pulled a Don Draper, got hired at Fried Frank, and brought his music promotion skills to Biglaw.
I'd like to echo your sentiment, Nigel, but for untold scores of Beantown law students, the Boston gig has been cancelled.
I want to rock and roll all night. And Sharty every day.
These grads go to '11.
Good point, Nigel, but it's not the Shearman Managing Partner's job to be as clear-headed and logical as you are, is it?
Shearman missed a chance to Tap into a readily apparent HR solution.
Ah, Nigel . . . great work, I nearly spat out my morning tea.
But with respect to these memos we see on ATL, I believe Biglaw doth tout its "continued strength and success" too much.
Seems like there's a little too much fucking "continued strength and success." I don't know how much more of this "continued strength and success" our profession can withstand.
This is one of those mysteries that's best left unsolved . . . .
You know, I got mine in almost exactly the same manner, except instead of a psychiatrist, it was my bandmate Nigel. Uncanny!
Quite exciting, this computer lab magic!
You know, they're really going to have to start using the metal detector wands on those partners before they get on the elevator.
At my platform-shoe firm, we once had a problem like this with our managing partner Derrick. Then during a business trip last fall, TSA really put him in line. He was walking funny when he came out of the strip search room.
Such a fine line between stupid and clever. What do you think, Nigel?
Law school classes are not getting larger, they're just getting less selective.
I'm sure I would take offense at 7's inane post if I weren't so heavily sedated.
Great post, Elie. I'm usually a fan but this was even a cut above your normal work. The tuition increase sucks in a big way, but demanding that a law school behave like a non-profit school of social work is unreasonable.
I can hear the protest chants now:
"Hey Hey!, Ho Ho!
law schools without historic and capacious commitments to issues of social justice have got to go!"
Indeed, Nigel. I guess the "end the schticks" campaign has me struggling to establish my relevance.
In my post (@148), I sought to channel the influences of two of my favorite ATL authors, Mystal and Lat. The result was kind of a "Latstal" posting. I wrote it in the font of Helvetica, which I find causes people to weep instantly.
By the way, you're up early!
No, we're not going to fucking play Stonehenge tomorrow night!
Sorry you didn't get any sleep. Sounds like your neighbors had the ultimate big bang.
What's wrong with pleasing yourself?

Are we sure this bloke's to blame? Dozens of chapel memorials spontaneously combust each year. It's just not really widely reported.
