Good Lord!
Posted on March 31, 2008According to several sources I have read, according to the Vatican newspaper Islam has surpassed Roman Catholicism as the world's largest religion.

Posted on March 31, 2008Former Vice President Al Gore is set to unveil a three-year, $300 million climate change campaign Wednesday, one of the most ambitious and costly public advocacy campaigns in U.S. history. Wow. Can I say that moving your work and office home is generally good for the climate.
Carolyn Elephant Can Speak For Me Anytime
Posted on March 28, 2008Law.Com reports that Carolyn Elefant wants to be the voice for solo lawyers. Well, let me tell you something. Carolyn can be my voice and speak for me as a solo any little ol' time she wants. Read the article. And, buy her book -- her roadmap -- Solo By Choice.
Oh No! Say It Is Not So! My Idol Has Passed.
Posted on March 28, 2008I generally do not care for McDonalds, but I love the Egg McMuffin. I fear, however, that it is not good for me now that I have crossed the half century mark. See that stack of Egg McMuffin in the picture. Left to my own terrible devices, I could eat every one of those...

The Evolution of Dad - But Do Not Call Me "Mr. Mom"
Posted on March 27, 2008Being a good Dad. In a way that is one of the main reasons for downshifting, the carpet commute, going solo, and working at home. It is the benefit of the Third Wave. It is the ability to just be around your kids and see them grow up. To have some degree of impact on their lives that they might remember in later life...

Marketing Straight Down The Middle
Posted on March 26, 2008Talk about innovative marketing that is subtle and makes a statement. This divorce lawyer has stationary, business cards and envelopes with a line cutting right down the middle. What more has to be said. It is easy to remember. It makes the point just looking at it...

The Ego Is Big
Posted on March 25, 2008It amazes me sometimes how highly people think of themselves, and in particular how much they think others think of them. (By the way we do not think about you). I guess it is just natural that people that gravitate toward law have big egos. The self-esteem of many lawyers is fragile...
A Plastic Banana Guard?
Posted on March 24, 2008Oh come on! HuffPo had a list of the "Top 10 Most Useless Items of Crapola". I thought a lot were just silly. The fact that the Auto-Adjusting Wrench was listed as first on the list just demonstrates that the article was written by a girl. What good Texas boy would not want an Auto-Adjusting wrench...
One Year Of Practical Legal Education

Easter
Posted on March 23, 2008I went to Mass early this morning and very much enjoyed it. It made me feel better, and that is good. I have not had the best couple of weeks. I cannot get any work completed because I have come to suspect most lawyers are not really working, or if they are their staffs are not working, or certainly their clients are not working...

Rockin' Saturday - And Then We Move To Disco - I Did Grow Up In The 70s After All
Posted on March 22, 2008The Beatles - Rock and Roll Music
Posted on March 22, 2008This is what I am listing to today. I like mid-century stuff and listen to the old crooners during the work week. But, on Saturday you sometimes just need to rock!
Failure To Launch
Posted on March 22, 2008I have been speaking on the phone lately to a few attorneys who simply do not like the place they are in, they want to change by going out on their own or moving their practices home, but they just have this inability to launch. I understand this because even in my own life I have often been pushed to the wall emotionally or financially before forcing myself to make the BIG decision...
