A Rapping Clerk of Court? Meet Harvey Ruvin

When you think of clerks of court, you probably think of those annoying people who bounce your filings because you used the wrong font size. They don't seem like a fun bunch of people.

But Harvey Ruvin, Clerk of Courts for Miami-Dade County, is not your ordinary court clerk. How many clerks do you know who can rap?

Okay, "rapping" may be a generous characterization. Ruvin sounds less like a rapper and more like a stand-up comedian who superimposed his routine over some throbbing beats. "Climate change -- what's up with that?"

But we're not rap aficionados, so judge for yourself. Our observant tipster points out: "Note at 1:49 in the video, in the 'o' in the Stop the Hatred sign, you'll find a marijuana plant."

P.S. And where, you're wondering, did Harvey Ruvin go to law school? None other than the University of Miami School of Law -- one of ATL's favorite law schools.

This is shaping up to be a pretty slow ATL day.

This guy gets props. He did it in response to a dare from his teenage son. I hope I am that cool when I am old.

I think people actually got dumber just by watching that video. Thanks Lat!

I think it's a perfect summary of the man-made global warming argument... Retarded.

Well, Lat officially has the magic touch. The video has been pulled from YouTube. Nuts.

2:52 --

Have you studied the matter much? Or is this just a knee-jerk reaction inspired by your conservative idols?
