THE POOR SAP LOOKING FOR A JOB MIGHT WANT TO THINK ABOUT DITCHING THE ALL-CAPS SO HIS POSTING WILL BE MORE READABLE SO PEOPLE WILL ACTUALLY READ IT. PERHAPS THEY DIDN'T COVER THAT IN THE CFA / MBA PROGRAMS. NO PAYMENT NECESSARY, THIS ADVICE IS FREE.

The bankruptcy lead table for law firms with "active cases" is ridiculous. Those "top" firms are mostly doing creditor work.

The big $$ is debtor-side. Weil is the clear winner.

Bess, Stop! Look! Listen! Think about what you're doing. Nothing happened between me and Girl With Wet Hair. Guest just made her up in an attempt to make you jealous and get us talking again. So it wasn't the best catalyst but give me break. Hell! I live above a Bodega and watch Night Court and Love Boat all day, I'm desperate.

OK! OK! OK! I'm through with Asian porn; this time I mean it.

Next time your significant other tells you via third party they are "hiking the Appalachian Trail," do not pass go and head straight to the attorney's office.

Republicans are currently trying to fornicate us to a better economy.
