Law Review "Right On!" Competition

One more thing before I go. Because of the small sense of accomplishment I have right now, I feel I should report that I actually took it upon myself to join the flock attempting to make Law Review. After reading 300 pages and writing and Bluebooking 17 (thanks to a relatively generous 20 page maximum), I can finally say that, no matter what happens, at least I tried. I just dropped off 5 copies for Law Review and 5 copies for another journal (name TBA if by the grace of God I get an offer). If you hear nothing more of this, feel free to assume the worst. Life without citation will go on.

In the meantime, please check out a delightful little book entitled The Bluebook: A Uniform System of Citation by The Prince of Darkness (pen name). What a find! Famed for its organizational clarity and overall readability, The Bluebook will have you on the edge of your seat from start to finish! My favorite selections include: Table 6, the Short Citation rules, and the Practitioner's Notes--those are fun and witty! The Bluebook even makes a great fireside companion (resist the urge to toss it into the fiery depths from whence it came).

Ok, now I'm really going. I refuse to be like those infuriating couples on the phone:

You're so cute. I love you.
No, I love you.
Well, I love you more.
No way!
Yes way!
I love you til infinity!
Infinity plus one!
(Giggle) It's a tie!
Fine! Goodbye!
Ok, you hang up first!
No, you hang up first!
No, you!

[Neither one actually gets the chance to hang up, due to severe head injuries inflicted by Bekah. End scene.]

I love you! [click]
