Won't You Come Over Check Up On It.

I'm totally into Site Meter. I know Arbusto hates it, but I find it super-entertaining to know how readers get here, where they come from and how long they stay. Site meter leads me to wonder - who is reading from Canada? I have extended family in Ottawa, and am wondering whether it is them? Or maybe an Arbusto Homie? Just curious.

I have had one too many law students from Berkeley find their way to this site by trying to figure out how Boalt Hall students are notified that they Am-Jur'd a class. And because I have never answered that question, I figure I should do my best for future overacheivers finding their way to Lex-Land. As a disclaimer, I never actually got an Am-Jur, but I know someone who did. It comes up on your transcript, a little asterisk mark and then a notation at the bottom. You can see this on the Bearfacts version too. It's the same way with other Boalt awards. I will toot my own horn here and say that while I never got an AmJur or the Prosser Prize (second place) -- I did take home an award for 1L moot court. Much to the surprise of my classmates, seeing as I never went to class. As we all said, I was "taking one for the slackers." Some professors also email AmJur award winners, but that's too much of a personal preference to bank on.

CECU - Where is the State of the Union wrap up? I read your 'between the lines' pre-take, but I am still waiting for your keen analysis. You're on W. duty!!

  • I don't hate sitemeter. I just think statcounter is better.

  • Lex, somehow the analysis is under the earlier post! Crazy...but, that is me. Also, you will note, that the analysis post is posted prior to the end of the speech. Actually, I went to save it as a draft about 15 mins before the end of the speech, and hit the POST and PUBLISH by mistake.

    Some anonymous person said I should sent it to mom...I wonder who that could be.

    As for sitemeter, I am enjoying it also. On the date of the SOTU address, the Seargent of Arms of the Senate checked out my site! :) They were looking for the search term, Bill Nelson, who happens to be my Senator here in Florida, and I had just blogged about phoning/faxing them about the Alito confirmation, the day before!

    Pretty Kewl! Also, I got checked out by Ottawa also...enjoy it!

  • Arbusto - my bad. Hate is a strong word, I apologize for that. The correction is well-founded and well-taken. I apologize if I insulted you.

    CECU - you could try going into the post and chaning the date/time. That way, you could mark it as a time later than the following post - and it will come up first. My money on the Nony recommending a forward to GRM would be Loony Tunes Aunt. And if you do - you better publish her response!! And that is super-neat that the SoA found their way to your site!!!

  • Lex: are there any topics you specifically want me to include in my 100 list?

    By Blogger Arbusto, at 11:33 AM  

  • Arbusto,

    Oh yeah. There are things I want to know.

    Remember my Gloworm/ Cabbage Patch confessions? I am aching to see what young boys are up to when experimenting... I'm also wondering whether you've ever had any *interactions* with a male, or whether you're 100% straight, but just super-comfortable with yourself.

    What non-law job you would be your ideal? (trying to get around the judge stuff) And, since you are doomed to a law job, what sort of law do you want to practice?

    Finally - most embarassing moment - EVER. With no holds barred.
