True, it is somewhat disconcerting to see the potential clients shuffling out of our office lobby, wads of hundred dollar bills clutched in their hands, as I shout out, "Not now! I have a blog article to write!" But noblesse oblige and all that. Sarcasm aside, I really do enjoy doing this. It satisfies my writing jones, and the major thing I've learned over the past 2+ years that I've been doing this is how little I know about the law. Thanks for the kind words.

Your blog is always entertaining. But it's when you draft posts like this one that I'm struck by what a service it is to the practicing bar. (Judge Painter says that starting sentences with "But" or "And" is a sign of a seasoned writer.) No wonder Lexis has recruited you to be one of their experts on appellate law. ;-) I am sure that the blog is bringing you mad money and that the waiting room at your office must be constantly swamped with clients. I am surprised that you are even able to take the 4th off. But (see?) for the life of me, and all sarcasm aside, I have no idea how you find the time to draft such insightful commentary every day. All I know is that, every morning, I am glad that you do. Nice work, Russ. Your blog is always entertaining.
