A strange turn of events has led me to consider a career as a blog ghost-writer. Don't ask me how it happened; it's much too complicated to explain. Of course, you'll never know if it really is complicated - perhaps it's simple but embarrassing. At any rate, I was surprised to learn that ghost-written blogs are not a new idea. In fact, my good friend Google sent me these links:

netlawblog (try saying that 3 times fast!)

some site called f/k/a (formerly known as? fundamentally kick-ass?)

On a side note, I didn't know there was such a thing as a "lawblog". Nothing at the above links made any sense to me. I think lawyers do this on purpose, the same way that all groups and cliques make up their own slang. However, the legally-minded among us have a distinct and unfair advantage, because they have access to all kinds of crazy-ass words from "The Lexicon of Laws 'N Stuff". Doctors too, with their medulla oblongata and their serendipitus maximus, acting like they're so much smarter than the rest of us. I know how to fix a car, doctor! You can't fool me! I know when I need to fix a car, I just go get the book and look it up and it tells me what to do. Somebody comes in there with stomach pains, you got a nice little setup where the nurse plays around and they gotta wait 20-30 minutes - I know what you're doing! You're in the back room, looking up "stomach pains" in "The Compendium of Sundry Aches".

Nurse: Doctor, Mr Carter is here to see you. He's got severe abdominal pain.
Doctor: You tell him wait right there about 20, 30 minutes. I gotta go kill two birds with one boot!
Nurse: Oh doctor, you so crazy!
Doctor: I tell you, turd-proofing these books was the best investment I ever made.
