Some constitutional provisions are still working better than ever. For instance you have the right to a trial by a jury of your peers. And you have the right to counsel. And not only that counsel must be effective.

Luckily the framers did not say you have a right to a reasonable determination of whether or not you committed a crime.

SScale a loves to be in the news and say provocative things. He may be right. But he is an attention seeker.

I have a dream I don’t believe in.

[scaredyclassic]

Yeah, what?

On the other hand … people said I was dumb back in 1992 doing the law thing.

I admit I just dunno.

[quote=paramount]scaredy did you go to a tier 1/2/3 school?[/quote]

Top 20. Tuition was 16 thousabd a yr back then 50 plus thousand a yr now.

Too risky. Only worth the credential if your family has the money or you’re trying to make it in big firm law.

Debt load is crushing nowadays although the gov. Has Ibr income based repayment schemes to keep the Ponzi plan afloat.

Borrowing or paying 250k for any law degree today is a risky maneuver. I would oppose my kids doing that…

http://Www.jdunderground.com is the pigging ton of the fed student loan scam for sucking $ from law students proceed cautuously.

Unlike a mortgage student loan debt is almost never dischargeable.

I think all online schools are unaccredited.
Accreditation is very costly.

The unaccredited schools for cal. Won’t entitle you to take the bar in other stateS I dont think.

Best option. Get very high lsat score get full ride at low ranked accredited school and ace law school to retain the scholarship.

Easier said than done though.

Just feels creepy.
So dry….

I don’t mind going days without showering. He’ll I could happily go a week or two if social views change.

composting toilet.

I am going to need a few glasses of water though.

Pigging to it a unique cultural treasure. Digital anthropologists will mine its riches onecday

Did rumpolé of the Bailey ever retire? Well technically yes but he came back from retirement because he couldn’t stand it. And he’s fictional and his author John Mortimer died so I suppose he cannot work anymore. But rumpolé never really quit. Rumpolé is more real to me than many actual people.

No accent on the em

I am a lawyer first. Everything else is secondary. I shall die in court.

What do retired people do all day?

It seems like one might feel kinda useless and without social status.

ok. maybe i was exaggerating. but it is a little scary sometimes. take it easy.

27.5 inch is actually the classic 650b size, which was extinct, or near extinct.

650b was the preferred/only tire size of french tourists in the 40s and 50s, and fell out of vogue when the 700c racing wheel rose to power in the 60s and 70s.

650b is now in trendy resurgence, first on roadish bikes, then migrating to mtn bikes.

some believe that 650b has magical properties that it is indeed the perfect sized wheel.

. there was an alliance of french people called the i think “les confreries de 650b” whose sole purpose was to keep the 650b tire size alive in the dark years where no tire mfr whatsoever was making 650b tires. those were dark times indeed.

650b aka 27.5 inch is now extremely cool, perhaps the most stylish tire size i can imagine. custom bike builders offer it. there are few nonmtn bike options i know of.

it evokes french factory workers on holiday on rutted wartorn countryside roads, wearing berets and smoking gaulouises, stopping to have wine and bread perhaps with their cherie on the back of a rene herse tandem? their strong powerful legs glistening with well earned sweat, they appreciate this day off from the factory, happy to be alive and free of german occupation.

freedom! free to ride their french made bike with special french parts that fit only french bikes and no other bikes weird french idiosyncrasises that make it difficult to repair and restore older french bikes) and of course, the 650b tires….

650b is the tire size i would go with if I were having a custom bike built around my size.

i can’t remember the whole story, but i think the original mtn bikes were roughly converted kids cruisers, and the 26 inch wheelsize is a leftover anomaly from that early adaptation by a few riding rebels in marin county, maybe?

viva la 650b!

i believe the wheel size has magical properties.
