Congrats to all new lawyers!
Not that we needed any more, nor is this is any way football related (so mods, feel free to take it down), but the PA Bar Results just came out, and I know there were a couple of others waiting, so congrats to everyone that passed...myself included!

Congratulations Counselor!
What a gigantic relief I KNOW you feel right now. Enjoy yourself today and tonight and let it sink in. In just a few short weeks, you should begin to taste food again, be able to relax and be back to normal (or as close as an attorney gets).

Ha.
23 minutes ago…You should be pretty drunk by now. Relax and enjoy it. Once you start working, you’ll never sleep well again.
Remember: Lawyers don’t drink because they might make a mistake. They drink because they already did and they just don’t know about it yet.
Welcome to the bar, counselor.

Free advice
When the cop goes to arrest you, yelling “I’m a lawyer” at him is only going to make matters worse.

I can't speak for Utopia, but I know I've deserved one or two in my time on the South Side.
Luckily, I’ve gotten this far unscathed. Now I can sue. THIS IS A NIGHT FOR AMERICANS!

Well...
Here’s how it went. Friday night – standard. Saturday – PSU vs Temple started at noon. I thought my Cinnamon Toast Crunch and hangover would be amaaaaaazing with some captain and coke on the side. I was right. Things escalate as we coast to another win and see some obvious flaws. I work and am friends with a bunch of Pitt grads (I feel dirty about this constantly) who convince me to go to a Pitt “tailgate.” Things continue to escalate as I do push-ups and hand out insults to anyone who is listening. I believe this is when I deserved the face punching the most. My older brother is a Pitt grad (I feel dirty about this constantly) so he asked me to go to the Pitt-Navy game with him. I remember exactly one thing from the three hour time period at Heinz “I wish I could be full for Pitt games” Field. 1) As we sit down for the 2nd half, I say to my brother “Wow, it looks so much better from this side,” thinking we had switched sides of the stadium at the half. That’s all I got. I leave the stadium to meet up with friends on carson, because drinking at this point would just make the day complete. I would say things escalated but they didn’t, since I was tired and hungry. So, I went to get a OMGGG ESSS EEEE CCCCC gyro (SEC because they are so strong and fast and amazing but slightly overrated), and the following moment happened: Waiting for a cab, an intoxicated fellow and his friend were looking the other way also waiting for a cab and they bowled into me, knocking said gyro from my death grip. I said “Dude, watch it” (menacing right) and intoxicated fellow did not like this. His friend told him to calm down, and although I didn’t say anything, I think my critical mistake was laughing with full on gyro amazingness seeping out of my mouth and pores. He snaked me in the face. I had a chipped tooth, an emergency root canal, a fake tooth inserted, swollen lips for a week, endless ridicule at work, and all I got was this lousy story.

Reading +1ed me. I feel validated. And I’m from Reading. I think I rambled a bit in that story. My name is not Danny and I still don’t have any pride (It left with my tooth).

Mike and Tony's? Overrated.
But I wouldn’t say the story was lousy. I think it was about par for the Saturday South Side course, especially when there is a Pitt or Penn State easy victory.

No dude.
That little place right next to Mario’s. I think it’s called American Gyro Shop or something. Pretty good. If you go, try to look for the other half of my tooth because I’d like that as a visual aid to the above story.

Easy +1, which is not to be mistaken for a pity phuque; this was a good story, well-told.
(I particularly enjoyed ‘dude watch it’, the feeling dirty repetition and the ‘things escalated’ parts)

OHHH Lawyer Jokes
A couple of friends meet after a long time:
“I divorced my wife.” One says.
“Really? How did you do it?”
“We hired a lawyer who helped divide the assets and stuff.”
“What about the kids?”
“Well,…we’ve decided that whoever got more money would also take the kids.”
“That sounds fair. And who got them?
“The lawyer.”

Statistics
We got the batch of stats to go with the results. Typical bar numbers for the most part – 2K test takers, 82% statewide passage rate, 92% passage rate for Pitt students taking it for the first time (Pitt was fourth in the state for passage rates behind Penn, Temple, and Drexel). However, the number that stood out the most was of the 5 (yes, 5) former Pitt students taking the exam for their fourth or more time, NONE passed. Time to throw in the towel…
