I passed the bar!

After 4 years of working full time while going to night school, one miserable summer studying for this exam, and nearly 3 months waiting for results, it's all over!

As long as the board of bar examiners doesn't find anything wrong with my character & fitness during the next week or so, I'll be sworn in as an attorney on the 29th.


Let the lawyer jokes begin...

Make sure you wear a bandage for the first few weeks and change it often, I hear it's easy to get an infection around the soul-removal site.

the entire period of law school is the soul removal process - it's slow and painful.

By now, my wound has healed and I'm ready for action

A man went to a brain store to get some brain to complete a study. He sees a sign remarking on the quality of professional brain offerred at this particular brain store. He begins to question the butcher about the cost of these brains.

"How much does it cost for engineer brain?"

"Three dollars an ounce."

"How much does it cost for programmer brain?"

"Four dollars an ounce."

"How much for lawyer brain?"

"$1,000 an ounce."

"Why is lawyer brain so much more?"

"Do you know how many lawyers we had to kill to get one ounce of brain?"

Omaha is FULL of bars. Thats about the only thing to do here, besides restaurants. Though it is some of the best steak in the country, and cheap since we have more cows than people in Nebraska... literally. There is over 3 million cattle and 1.7ish million people.

However, the small towns of like 200-300 people..they only have one bar..sometimes two. I went to Alliance, NE last weekend and I went to BOTH bars. Unless you want to count the VFW's. Each small town has their own local VFW with a bar in it. The BEST part about the small town bars is that drinks are stupid cheap and really good. A Goose vodka tonic is like $3 and its in a tall glass with probably 3-4 shots in it. In Omaha such a beverage would be $6 or $7.
