* Texas Governor Rick Perry didn’t really suggest seceding from the Union. Sorry if you got your hopes up, but I think we’re stuck with Texas. [CNN]

* Really, if you lived your life in accordance with the teachings of Yoda, you’d probably end up as a pretty successful person (so long as you are never in charge of teaching an impetuous young man with unimaginable power). “You must unlearn what you have learned.” [Law and More]

* A person was denied admission to the New York State Bar for unpaid student loans. Some of the loans were outstanding from 1985. How long before we go back to throwing debtors in a prison colony? [Legal Profession Blog]

* A Blind lawyer is still able to compete despite the Great Recession. [Wall Street Journal]

* What is the next brand name to disappear? And who is their outside counsel? [What About Clients?]

* Some unknown writer had loads of fun with MSNBC anchor David Shuster. On Countdown, they got Shuster to say “It’s going to be teabagging day for the right wing and they are going nuts for it.” Maybe Shuster was in on the joke? And maybe the FCC doesn’t see anything wrong with a lovely cup of tea? It doesn’t matter. But it’s the writer that deserves a lot of credit here. [The Legal Satyricon]
