Stare Decisis: Car shopping
http://staredecisis1.blogspot.com/2007/10/car-shopping.html
And now for the bar. Friday, October 26, 2007. So I think it's time to trade in the old 1995 Escort and get something newer - I'm planning to go car shopping tomorrow. Anyone have any suggestions for something like the old Escort - smallish 4-door, but sporty? Affordable, reliable, and not too dowdy looking? Posted by Stare Decisis at 8:38 AM. If you're talking about new cars I have a few ideas for you. Ford Focus '08 edition. Ford just gave this a mid cycle enhancement. 4 door sedan only and if ...Subar...

http://staredecisis1.blogspot.com/2005_05_01_archive.html
And now for the bar. Sunday, May 29, 2005. Not that I'm obsessed or anything, but I sure wish grades would post soon. It's been 2 weeks since the end of finals, 5 since the start, and it seems like some of the earlier ones should be up by now. Especially the ones that were multiple choice - run them through the grading computer, set the curve, and put those grades up! Posted by Stare Decisis at 9:52 PM. Links to this post.

Stare Decisis: Decompression
http://staredecisis1.blogspot.com/2007/07/decompression.html
And now for the bar. Monday, July 30, 2007. I spent this morning baking chocolate chip cookies with my nephew. He pronounced himself the "best chocolate-chip cookie baker in the world.". Thursday I have to go downtown and do all of my "new employee" paperwork. I have reconsidered and will try to keep the blog open even after I start work, even if I can't talk about work. I'll need somewhere to talk about bar results, and the eventual new job search, after all! Posted by Stare Decisis at 9:54 AM.

Stare Decisis: The end?
http://staredecisis1.blogspot.com/2007/10/end.html
And now for the bar. Friday, October 19, 2007. So I found out yesterday that I passed the character and fitness portion of the admissions process, and I can now officially be sworn in as a lawyer! They don't do a big ceremony here anymore, so I'm planning to have my judge swear me in, and I can have my family and friends there as well. We actually get admitted by mail, but we do have to be sworn by a notary, clerk or judge. Posted by Stare Decisis at 1:37 PM. 19 October, 2007 16:38. 20 October, 2007 07:14.

I used to think fancy was something to aspire to, to become (as i think david hockney. And growing up what other models did i have to judge by? But why, i wondered, would adults turn down soda to drink this cold fizzy liquid that tastes like urine? Oh, because i'm OLD! No i want something with a unique taste that compl...
