Judged Blog
Weekend Judged
Life of late seems a bit dull, at least to me.  It’s still freezing outside.  All the holidays (even the crappy pseudo Hallmark Holidays like Valentine’s Day) are done.  Now, we can only look forward to…Memorial Day.  That just sucks.  The only light in life for us is Inside Legal Blogs (well, maybe not, but please, humor me).  Read on for this week’s highlights in legal blogs… Lawyers are notorious for making tenuous arguments and drawing thin connections between seemingly unrelated topics…that’s how most litigators make their living!  However, sometimes, lawyers take it too far.  Such is the case of a posting on Legal Sanity, which is usually one of the blogs I enjoy visiting each week.  This legal blogger began by discussing a BBC article “Why are Dutch Children so happy”, which is beyond random and weird in itself.  I can’t imagine what would motivate someone to think of writing an article on this topic, let alone what would compel people to actually read it.  If that wasn’t bad enough, the blogger then attempted to correlate this article to practicing law…sorry, I’m not sure I’ll ever understand what attorneys can learn from children wearing wooden shoes.  But maybe that’s just me.  Another topic all the blogs mentioned this week was the odd antics of Judge Larry Seidlin, who is presiding over the disposition of Anna Nicole Smith’s estate.  Crime and Federalism, Overlawyered, Above the Law, and Althouse all commented on this one.  Apparently, the Judge couldn’t help but tear up and espouse his feelings about the late Anna Nicole.  Hey, say what you will, but there’s no such thing as bad publicity.  Personally, I think he’s trying to land a reality television show of his own…and with the kind of attention he’s attracting, I wouldn’t be at all surprised if he did. While all I found the above topics amusing, this posting on Above the Law really made my day.  Every attorney cringes at the thought of taking yet another conference call, which will inevitably waste about two hours of your day and always give you a headache.  That’s why I’m sure that the attorneys who called in to this conference line were not only shocked, but also relieved, because if nothing else, they at least missed the meeting.  Visit the link to see exactly what shocked these attorneys...
