Our goddaughter is in the midst of taking the bar exam — a two- or three-day hazing ritual — so that some day soon she will have the dubious honor of practicing law with a license. (In our family, many consider themselves lawyers even though actually allowing them to be licensed would be tantamount to yelling fire in a crowded theater.)
Any way, back to our goddaughter. She’ll do fine. She is smart and capable. And those are not even prerequisites — have you looked at who gets admitted to the bar? And then what percentage of those also get put behind bars (at penitentiaries)?
Anyway, my sweet, I can’t wait to welcome you to the club. Just remember, it is just a bar on the side of road.
Life is bigger, wider and better than any heights of any profession. I know you know that. But you also know that, as I am in loco (LOCO) parentis in the State of Blogger, I must tell you anyway.
POB (partner of blogger), SOPOBAB (son of POB and Blogger) and I love you and POLTB (partner of lawyer-to-be) VERY, VERY, VERY much.

Forgive me for the delay in commenting…I’ve finally come out from under all those Barbri books and had time to catch up on your posts.
A bar on the side of the road. I like that. Even if I don’t drink. Hey, maybe come November we can go to the bar together and I can buy us a couple of club sodas while you teach me the secret handshake.
Love you too.
