Venting

Dear Sen. Feinstein:

STFU. Derailing a murder investigation is one thing, but throwing a monkey-wrench into our efforts to root out Al Qaeda / Taliban is another.

To vent about Black Thursday:

Not speaking from any inside information or anything, but I don't think there's much that 3Ls can do now. At least not much substantive (I think a commenter below hit the right note about not booking that bar trip just yet and saving in general). The greater burden is on my classmates and other recent Boalt alumni. The pressure will shift to the Class of '09 as the start dates get closer. If the credit markets ease by then, you should be alright.

I also think there will be more firms that wrap things up. Pay attention to Daily Journal announcements about groups of partners leaving. What a mess.

Feinstein has kind of failed lately. According to the Register (British, so adjust your biases accordingly), she's also trying to insert an amendment into the stimulus that kills off net neutrality.

On an aside, I played shuffleboard against Caley tonight (without knowing who he was at first), and after an intense, furious battle, he walked away victorious, 23-20.
