1/2 of MD is also Blog-Sitting!

georgia.jpg

We're coming to you this morning from about three hours east of LEWW, in Athens, Georgia, home of the University of Georgia (my two-time alma mater), R.E.M., and well, to be honest, not much else that anyone except us cares about. We, like Laurie, are both honored to be filling in and not prone to referring to ourselves in the first-person singular.

Regular readers will recognize us as 1/2 of the MD team, along with B Clerker. Here's our self-introduction from October of last year, when we started helping out with MD, for those of you who missed it and/or those of you who, like Loyola 2L, are concerned about our legal credentials. (For the record, UGA Law is tied with 7 schools for 36th in the latest USNWR rankings. Come on, USNWR, an 8-way tie? Make a decision! We need to know whether we can look down on Hastings graduates!)

At any rate, we're no David Lat and we know it, but we will nevertheless do our best to entertain and inform in his absence. So keep the tips coming, keep reading, criticize us freely if you think we suck (I'm sure you won't have any problem with that), and remember, no matter what you think of us, Lat will be back next week (and so will we, with MD).

Please do *not* encourage Loyola 2L with references in your blog entries.

Thanks in advance.

Oh, and feel free to pass this along to the rest of the staff.

Hello. I'm not interested in rankings. I want to end tierism, not promote it.

Interesting map you have there, with Marietta and College Park both shown east of Atlanta....

Athens is home of Terrapin (). That should count for something.

That's true. And now they've announced that they are actually going to brew the stuff in Athens. http://www.ajc.com/living/content/living/food/stories/btownsend/2007/03/13/031507FDbeer.html

"(my two-time alma mater)"

Shouldn't that be "OUR" two-time alma-mater?

No really, that is an awful map of Georgia. Seven years (at least) in the state should have clued you (y'all) in.
