What Law School Really Teaches Us...

After receiving an email at 6:40 in the morning, this conversation ensued:

Calculating: What the hell are you doing up so early? Don’t you know it’s SUMMER?

John Roberts: True it's summer, but I figure maybe I should finally get something accomplished for the Prof I’m working for this summer. What the hell are YOU doing up so early? :-p

Calculating: 6 am on a Wednesday morning in the summer? Well, I’m at school studying, of course.

John Roberts: How do you manage to refrain from cutting yourself?

Calculating: I don’t. I’ve just learned to move the cuts farther up my arms in the summer, so I can still wear t-shirts.

John Roberts: Right on. Probably inside of the arm works better too.

Calculating: Hey, you’re not looking at the plus side here. I have the ENTIRE library ALL to myself. Plus, when I was in here this early on Monday morning, I didn’t turn the lights on and when the library guy came into open up I freaked him out. Ah, good times.

John Roberts: So basically summer classes have turned you into a creepy cutter?

Calculating: Nah, I was one before summer school started. Summer school has just allowed me to continue to expound on those values.

John Roberts: I guess law school is good at helping us to grow as people.

Calculating: It really truly is. And to think, I thought I’d only be learning the law when I came here…

John Roberts: Instead we get to learn the law as well as new and inventive ways to hurt ourselves.
