re: Life as a Lawyer Advice Needed

LSU if she wants to stay in-state, anywhere else if not. Could make an argument for Tulane if she wants to be in Nola because Tulane gives some good connections there. However, LSU runs the state outside of Nola as far as connections go. If she wants to go out of state, go to the best one she can...
We have a single savings and checking account between us. We each have credit cards so as long as the credit card bills stay within reason neither of us worries about it. For apps, I really like YNAB for variable income households. It’s just a mobile version of the envelope savings method....

My dad did it and it was a huge success for him. These surgeries are pretty amazing....

I had bad tendinitis in one of my elbows back in grad school. Started taking fish oil and never had another problem. It’s anecdotal and maybe something else fixed it, but that’s my $.02....
Good. It’s about time the rest of the world at least attempted to take care of their own problems without the safety net of 100% knowing daddy USA will come to the rescue. I’m not even saying we shouldn’t help them if it comes to it—but they’ll be better prepared themselves if they have to wonder “w...
You could get popped with an audit which could subject you to penalties and heavy interest for failure to file. But, you could also run the risk of not doing so and flying under the radar....
RSC (Remote Sellers Commission) website has helpful information for you. It’s about whether you qualify as a dealer for remote sellers. Generally, the threshold for filing is $100k in revenue sold or 200 separate transactions (the or is important here—it can be either)....
Well-known that they were great friends and, while they had different legal opinions, respected each other a great deal. Unfortunately, it’s a lost concept in today’s world that people can respect each other and be friends despite ideological differences....
I keep Quest bars for a snack if I’m super hungry. Supposedly 4g of net carbs....
I don’t believe in it, but I don’t go around trying to find them to prove my disbelief wrong either....
I mean, this is common sense. If part of the test is whether the records are confidential, the records themselves must be examined to make a determination that they are, in fact, confidential. Prosecution is basically trying to bring a breach of contract case without introducing a copy of the contra...

You need to hire a lawyer ASAP, but this likely hangs on whether or not the sub placed a valid lien on the property. There are strict time limits and most of them frick it up. Absent a valid lien or a direct contract with you, their recovery would likely be limited to the builder under the PWA. If th...
No one leads with their best offer. They’ll say this until Ukraine comes to the table to talk I’d imagine....
I’ve started using the dual-action Advil that has both ibuprofen and acetaminophen in it...
Can Advil let the cluster migraines I’ve gotten since I was kid know that I’m white and shouldn’t be getting them?...
Below are the only places I buy stuff from now. I don’t believe in non-performance fabric materials. Even some of my suits are stretch suits, but I’m somewhat embarrassed at how much I’ve spent on these so leaving this company off unless you want custom stuff. State & Liberty Mizzen & Main Bird...
It happens sometimes at my gym, but I’ve got headphones in and the gym is big enough to never really interfere with my workout. I do think it’s funny when I see the young guys that are either skinny with no muscle or perpetually “bulking” (I.e. fat) flexing in the mirror like they’re Ronnie Coleman....
[quote]I saw someone in another thread calling it on par with Star Wars/Empire Strikes Back[/quote] The guy that said this is Christopher Nolan. I'd imagine he knows a thing or two about making a movie....
It’s impressively negligent that a franchise worth $4 billion doesn’t have the internal controls to prevent (or at least flag) $22 million being embezzled by a single employee....
The consulting industry as a whole has gotten out of control. A good consultant is worth their weight in gold, but, nowadays, it’s a bunch of people who don’t want to work and use enthusiasm, catch phrases, and empty promises to steal money. I probably average 1 new litigation file a year for som...
