Purchasers of “Dr. Strangelove” also bought these.

- How practice-ready a 1st year associate from any law school can be depends on if they came straight from law school or clerked or the equivalent. Senior people tend to forget what it is to be new. I would worry more about someone who had so many 'skills' courses they didn't know much actual law. August 24, 2026 Michael Froomkin
- If this view was ever correct, and it mostly wasn't at least since the late '80s, it certainly isn't true today. Clinics have become a much bigger part of YLS. August 24, 2026 Michael Froomkin
- The first time I read this I thought, "wait, what lawsuit concerning Natasha Cloud is in trial, and why would Emes Kanter care?" Eventually I figured out what court had jurisdiction. August 24, 2026 Michael Froomkin
Yes, and on that note, let us not forget that, in October, Turner Classic Movies had four senators introduce their favorite movies, and the results were as follows:
John Edwards–Dr. Strangelove
John McCain–Paths of Glory
Orrin Hatch–To Kill a Mockingbird
Joe Biden–Dead Poets Society
Obviously, Edwards is the smartest of the bunch, Biden the lamest. Both McCain and Hatch seem to be trying to pretend they are better people than they are by their choice of movies–since, despite their choices, McCain is clearly an obedient soldier and Hatch is clearly a bigoted pig–but at least the movies chosen are vastly superior to “Dead Poets Society.” Has Biden no shame?
Anyhow, I can only now assume that Edwards is also a fan of “America; The Book.” And that’s the kind of person we really need as vice-president–a hopeful, good-natured, reluctant cynic.
