Strange

What do you make to the reoccurring right-wing statements about no domestic terror attack under Bush? There are now three people who have made this claim:

Mary Matalin (carefully worded as follows: "inherited the most tragic attack on our soil in our nation's history")

Dana Perino (White House Press Secretary)

Rudy Giuliani

They all later clarify by saying that they meant to add "since 9/11" to their comments. These people all operate from the same talking points. Is there a concerted effort to spread the lie (9/11 happened under Clinton) because they think Americans are stupid enough to eventually believe it?

Or are they admitting that Cheney was running the country and not Bush?

Scary.

Job hunting blows

I've tallied it up, and I've applied to about 75-100 jobs over the last several months. Granted a significant number of them were judicial clerkships, but still.

From this, I've had:

5 in-person interviews
1 offer to interview, which was rescinded after the judge hired a candidate before getting to my interview
1 telephone interview
0 job offers.

I'm at the top of my class, a good writer, have extensive work experience, and I am not socially awkward like most lawyers. For whatever reason, something hasn't worked out yet and all signs seem to suggest I should get out of Arizona... Just wish I knew the way out!

PS: If you know of anyone interested in law school, I would seriously discourage them from going. Unless they (1) don't have to get into debt to go, (2) can get into a top-ranking school, and most importantly (3) are absolutely sure they want to practice law.

I don't regret going to law school because I know practicing law is definitely what I want to be doing, but at the same time I'm also hoping Congress passes legislation allowing people to discharge school loan debt when they file bankruptcy, just in case...

My procrastination knows no bounds

I've been stalking people I went to grade, middle, and high school with but no longer speak to. Thanks to the interwebs, this is pretty easy.

I discovered that a boy I had a crush on in the 8th Grade got married but is now divorced. He is still as cute as he was back in the day. Another guy I despised looks like a meth addict and his wife/girlfriend epitomizes white trash. Yay!

Then some shockers: one guy I knew in middle school and high school (who I think had something to do with my car radio being stolen) who was kind of cute in an endearing way is SMOKING HOT now. Then another guy who was a bean pole and kind of awkward is beefy and cute now! Hilarious.

OK, back to work...

I've seen the end times, and it isn't pretty

Holy shit. Wal-Mart is now offering low cost legal services. God help us all!
