An interesting juxtaposition of headlines and a couple funny law blogs (or blawgs as it is)

While I certainly have interesting work-related things to write about to a limited degree, I will point out an interesting couple of headlines that appeared on Drudge the other day. In this order:

What killed Heath?
Jack Nicholson: 'I warned him'...

What made that funny (to me) was it didn't seem too long ago that the headline was that Jack Nicholson was 'furious' about the late actor playing the role of the Joker. So, in my twisted sense of humor, I thought the side-by-side headlines were sort of funny. And no, it's not too soon.

Speaking of funny, I've come across two blogs that do a much better job of summarizing daily life as a recent law school grad. Because of the nature of my clerkship circle, I have made a conscious effort not to summarize the daily comedy that sometimes emerges as these two blogs do. I anticipate this will not be the case once I enter big firm life in a few months. In many respects, my current level of clerkship humor is largely based on inside jokes, which are absolutely hilarious, if I took the time to explain them. Which sort of defeats the point and wastes everybody's time. I could decide to do something different, but we'll see.

In the meantime, the one blog is by a midwestern associate and another is by another east coast law clerk. The clerk one had a great entry about law clerk life a couple of days ago which is pretty representative of the real thing. Check out Chicks Dig Law Clerks and Law With Grace. [Edit 3/11/08: Chicks Dig Law Clerks no longer exists, sorry].

I have added them to my list of funny blogs to check out.
