Ode to the Paper Deadline

A few of my favorite Facebook musings from a one of my favorite 2L's:

"Interpreting rap lyrics employs the same skills, discipline, and precision as interpreting legal statutes. Scalia, you ain't special."

"Life Lesson: Footnotes make a paper full of fluff seem legit."

‎"'...In the battle of string-cites, nobody wins.' On the contrary, Justice O'Connor; for the savvy law student that needs to make his minimum page limit, it brings victory worthy of Napoleon!" 

Congrats to all who finished those lingering papers this weekend!

Color Me Legal

We here at SLS LOL realize that sometimes you just need to step away from the crazy. We know that the interwebs are filled will all sorts of digital time wasters, but just in case you feel like kickin' it old school style and bustin' out some high-quality analogue distractions, might we recommend using that free unlimited printing in the library to run yourself off a copy of the

Coloring Book For Lawyers 

where you'll find gems like these:

THIS IS ME. I am a lawyer. Lawyers are important.
They go to important offices and do important things.
Color my underpants important

THIS IS MY TELEPHONE. It has five buttons.
Count them. One, two, three, four, five. Five buttons.
How many buttons does your phone have? Mine has five.

THIS IS THE SENIOR PARTNER. He hates me. He calls me bad names,
but he gives me lots of raises. My wife calls him "papa".

And, if you're super cool, you'll trek back up to the teaming room, scan your completed masterpiece and send it on over to SLS LOL. We'd love to post your creations!

*Special Thanks to Lil' Bro E for hooking me up with this retro-taskic link!

  

Don't Break the Internet

If you're reading this, you are likely a regular use of Wikipedia (yeah yeah, i know, those case briefs are SUPPLEMENTING the reading you, of course, do diligently) and are well aware of today's protests.

That being said, SLS LOL wants to publicly support another important social cause.
No, this is not as captivating as the great Rojas Write-In Campaign of 2010, nor does it hit as close to home as Free Coffee! But, SLS LOL invites you to join us in voicing your disapproval of SOPA and PIPA...

DON'T BREAK THE INTERNET!!!!
