* Well, well. It looks like my monkey, has evolved into a man. A poor man. [Swordplay]

* Governor Paterson is ready to name a new chief judge to replace Judith S. Kaye. It’s Caroline Kennedy … no, sorry, wrong wire feed. It’s Jonathan Lippman! [New York Law Journal]

* Liberal blogger of some note, Matt Yglesias, is in on the whole Sidley pro-bono, anti public transportation issue. [Yglesias]

* We’ve mentioned David Mills’ funny “Courtoons” site before. I guess we’re not the only ones watching. A Russian blog has picked up one of the drawings, begging the question: there’s a Russian Biglaw blog!? If anybody can translate the Russian we (and David Mills) would be interested. [Courtoons via Юридический блог]

* You need to hear to be on a jury? Really? ‘Cause you don’t really need it for law school, Biglaw, being a law professor, courtroom litigator, or judge. But if a juror can’t locate the jury box using high pitch sonar we should kick him out of the pool? [Simple Justice]

* Lateral Link has undergone a complete site redesign. [Lateral Link]

* Just to be clear, we are pretty sure this Craigslist job listing is a joke. The riff about vacation time is really where it unravels. Then again … just because it’s a joke doesn’t make it devoid of truth. [Craigslist] [Ed. Note: It looks like Craigslist took down the link, but now Google Cache can finally be used for something other than catching my former typos. Check here]

* Meet David Lat tonight at the Bel Air Bar and Grill and learn about all the gossip we can’t publish on ATL. [Above the Law]
