Non-Sequiturs: 03.23.15

* Chicago Law grad went up to Alaska and challenged an Iditarod musher to an arm wrestling match. That's when she broke her arm. This decision should trigger an automatic two-spot drop in the U.S. News rankings. [Alaska Dispatch News] * An interview with Keith Wetmore, former Chairman of Morrison and Foerster, diving into his childhood growing up in a funeral home. From working with one group of stiffs to another. [Hsu Untied] * The Howard Shipley saga has come to an end. [Wall Street Journal] * Ruh roh. Biglaw partner earns a hearty benchslap for deliberately misleading the court. You can't do that -- save it for the summer associates asking about having a family. [Legal Business] * California lawyer Matt McLaughlin continues his Quixotic drive to have the state execute all the gay people. Now we have a pithy name for his proposed amendment: "The Intolerant Jackass Act." [Slate] * David talks to Bloomberg about why Above the Law hurts people's feelings. It's more diplomatic than my answer: because they're soft. [Big Law Business / Bloomberg BNA] * A lawyer testifies to the state legislature about how great a right-to-work law will be... for his bankruptcy practice. Troll hard, my friend.
