The Weekly Law School Roundup #22

This Week: The We're-All-Rock-Stars Edition. As long as we're all angling to be rock stars with our weblogs, why not recognize the unique riffs of all the hard-working law-student webloggers? Sure they should be spending their summers writing onto law review, but they're not--they're blogging! This edition of the Law School Roundup is for them. As an extra-special bonus, each featured post is titled with a line from an actual, real-life rock song. For anyone harebrained enough to care, I'll post a list of the songs I used in the continuation--

We're Caught in a Trap Some serious love advice for the ladies. [PeteHoliday.com]

I'll Always Love You Though New York Five things to know about the Big Apple. [Law & Alcholism]

I'd Rather Be With an Animal Watch a nature documentary about a very strange creature. [Clever WoT]

Don't Confuse Them With Mountains A weblogger serves dinner, provocatively. [My So-Called Internet-based Life]

But Not a Word I Heard Could I Relate Three stories about government-sponsored eavesdropping. [Asian Provocateur]

It Was as Much of the Alphabet as She Knew How to Use Some thoughts on composing a memorable law-school admission essay. [Kiwi Law]

Two in the Morning and the Party's Still Jumpin' Hanging with the other summer associates after a long day of hard work. [Color of Law]

And For This Gift I Feel Blessed Should a graduating law student buy a thank-you gift for her parents? [Will Work for Favorable Dicta]

Come on Everybody, Time to Deliver To escape the frustrations of his job, one new law clerk watches the X-Files. [Negligent Use of a Dangerous Mind]

This Shot Will Be My Last A law student's greatest accomplishment. [WonL]

Bet the Hand That Your Money's On Is it possible that passing the bar exam is nothing but a crap shoot? [Biting Tongue]

Evil Minds that Plot Destruction Why the FDA's new drug-labeling requirements are a bad idea. [Glorfindel of Gondolin]

The Best Old Hound Dog I Ever Did Know But even the best hound dogs don't belong in court [R. Enochs]

Missing Pieces You Can Take and Put Together A tale of a bad haircut with a happy ending. [divine angst]

Look for next week's roundup at divine angst, where Kristine has taken over co-authoring duties for Energy Spatula. In two weeks, the roundup will be back here. You can also find some other recent roundups in the "At the Law Schools 2" category, and sixty or so older roundups from the 2004-2005 era here.
