WHAT YOU'LL FIND IN THIS WEBLOG'S ARCHIVES . . . That's right, it's time for another advertisement for my own weblog. A lot has happened here at Legal Underground since my first post on January 1, 2004, which, strangely, still gets more comments than any other, 257 and counting.
Here are some of the items that once appeared at the top of this weblog, but which now appear only in its archives:
A letter from a lawyer on the run;
My secret formula for issue-spotting on law-school exams;
A set of instructions for finding a modest lawyer, if such a thing exists;
An annotated federal-court decision in which a law clerk hid names of Talking Heads songs;
A blow-by-blow account of my trip with another lawyer to Prague in the Czech Republic;
An explanation of the importance to every lawyer of "a circle of advisors";
Howard Bashman's Daily To-Do List;
A description of lawyers who advertise on TV;
The Legal Underground Official Tort-Reform Glossary;
A post about drinking, smoking, and screwing;
A short story about law-firm partnership;

A little more advice about law and literature;
An anecdote about the time I stayed out all night drinking with Christopher Hitchens;
My advice to a senior law partner who was having trouble connecting with the younger generation;and
That's just a few of the things you'll find among this weblogs 2,000-plus posts (which also feature 6,095 comments). If you don't want to stop there (though no one will blame you if you do), you can also troll the archives by looking at the categories and greatest hits pages. The archives are also listed by date in the lower right-hand corner of every page.
Confused? You can also view the weblog's help page and read the post titled "How to Read This Weblog."
Until tomorrow . . . happy reading!
