Thanksgiving Open Thread

Happy Turkey-Eve!

Enjoy your long weekend (assuming, of course, you're caught up on billables).

Gobble! Gobble!

  1. I'm in-house, so no billables. Plus, I can wear what I want, when I want and come and go as I please. Ah, it's a good life!

  3. Thankful for a six figure income in this economy, no bosses, and the ability to do whatever the f I want, all in five years (not according to the Supremes) out of law school. Actually feel sort of guilty.

  4. @8:37A:

    Did you just hang your shingle after graduation and hope for the best or did you have connections for your initial clients?

  5. In House, try to not get too comfortable.

    Been there and done that. It is a great gig, but if your company ever goes under and you cannot find another in house gig, you may be in your 50's with no clients and in a situation where you cannot possibly get by on the $150,000 or so that a firm will pay someone with no clients.

    In house here.

    I hear you. I'm preparing a back-up plan as a CYA as we speak. I've got a long ways until I'm 50.

    But it doesn't hurt to be prepared. I'll enjoy it while I can.

    Happy Thanksgiving folks!

  7. I think the Halverson head on the turkey picture is kinda mean.

  8. Why? It makes he look better than she usually does.

  9. What's up with the North Las Vegas Police Officers Association dropping its lawsuit against the city of North Las Vegas? Wasn't some guy recently quoted by the Sun as saying that the Police Officers Association's suit would be a "slam dunk?" Sounds more like an airball to me.

  10. A week or so ago there was some discussion on this blog about whether Judge Miley's huge breasts are real or surgically. I'm not sure what the consensus was. Was that issue ever resolved? If so, what was decided - real or fake?

    Oh, and she's a dimwit.

    Finally, to those who continually complain that this blog has become vulgar and low-brow: fuck yourselves. This is Las Vegas. Las Vegas is unapologetically vulgar and low-brow. If you don't like it, move back to Boston or San Francisco or whatever other uptight tightass place you may have come from. There are actually some people who like Las Vegas just the way it is - dirty, stupid, undereducated, crude, and ugly.

    Happy Thanksgiving, motherfuckers.

  11. @10:45 -- I think you're the first person to ever use the words "tightass" and "San Francisco" in the same sentence.

    ReplyDelete
  12. I agree with 10:45---if you don't like crudeness move back to the Bible Belt---I lived in the Bible Belt and I am really happy not to have to hear "are you a good Christian" what the fuck does that mean----also if you want an intellectual discussion start a book club---ok-moving on--no Miley's breast are not real but she just had a kid with the husband/dog abuser--smart move--I can't stand "Randy" Miley he is so full of himself---I once heard him telling some other attorneys that he has to park his Porsche in the handicap spot because he has some virus he caught in law school and he couldn't afford to treat so if affected his heart--5 minutes later he was bragging about benching some ridiculous amount of weight--so which is it--are you disabled or not? I guess we are all suppose to pretend that he didn’t' hurt his dog--that bothers me more than the wife as she can call 911 the dog can't--I only hope someone else has that poor dog--ok with that happy note---Happy Thanksgiving-----by the way has anyone seen Halverson any gossip on her?

  13. So, how long does it take for the Supreme Court to act on a disbarment recommendation? The State Bar recommended Jeanne Winkler for disbarment after she stole $300,000 from her client trust fund and then came up with a bizarre "explanation" involving family court judge Steve Jones.
    That was EIGHT MONTHS AGO.

  15. I am sooooo happy our Bar and Supreme Court are lazy and dense. Just blew a big chunk of my IOLTA on some outstanding blow & ho last night.

    Vegas is good to me. I give thanks.

  16. 10:45 - Since you so freely admit that you are dirty, stupid, undereducated, crude and ugly, it's so much easier to "appreciate" your contributions to the discussion.

  18. Nevada Supreme Court finds that an attorney's first DUI does not warrant temporary suspension or referral to the State Bar's disciplinary board: http://www.nevadajudiciary.us/index.php/viewdocumentsandforms/func-startdown/5390/

  19. I like Las Vegas, I feel smart with them fancy letters after my name, being college educated and all.

  20. "There are actually some people who like Las Vegas just the way it is - dirty, stupid, undereducated, crude, and ugly."

    I like Vegas the way it is and I would never describe it as "dirty, stupid, undereducated, crude, and ugly." Those are attributes to be found in the practice of law (or just plain living) anywhere. Someone who thinks those things are especially endemic in Vegas needs move out of his mother's house and see a little more of the world.

    Better yet, get off law review, get a job and lose your virginity (to someone other than your sister).

  21. Ah, the spirit of Thanksgiving is alive and well on this thread. Can't wait for next month's day-before-Christmas comments. Peace and joy and double-kickstands in the face to all this holiday season.

    Anyone else get a bonus yet?

  23. I'm glad people are still making money in this town because it seems like everyone at Boyd is shitting over just finding any job upon graduation, let alone one paying fat bonuses.

  24. 8:37 here. Didn't hang my shingle, worked for the man for a while, no contacts just a seriously large pair of brass balls; i.e. I got fucking lucky.

  27. I work for a small firm that is barely keeping its doors open. I still get paid at least. I doubt there will be any bonuses this year for anyone. Right now I am happy to have a job in this market. Congrats to those who are having a good year.

  28. Yeah, that Hubley thing is excellent! Apparently, the local bar is having their annual "Free Crime of Moral Turpitude With a Ten Gallon Fill-up" promotion!

    We ROCK! No wonder our bar is the envy of Zaire, Swaziland and the Baltic republics! Oh, and no pesky appellate court, either!

    Happy Holidays!

  29. Hey dummies, expand your reasoning a little. A DUI still subjects you to criminal and administrative penalties. It's just not the sort of thing that necessairly makes you unfit to pracice law. I was shocked that the bar even suggested suspension.

    ReplyDelete
  30. So, one DUI merits disbarment? Really? Half the lawyers in this town would be at risk.

    ReplyDelete
  31. @2:25
    FYI -- DUI is not a crime of moral turpitude. Multiple DUI convictions might fit that definition, but a first offense does not.

    ReplyDelete
  32. 2:43 - that's why they said one DUI isn't cause for discipline, because it would overwhelm the disciplinary system!

  34. Got my bonus today, 3 years out, 45K bonus plus platinum rolex, 10 attorney firm, 375K in salary. Motherfuckers shortchanged me, was expecting 75K, after I billed something like 1400 hours this year. Also, got literally the best BJ of my life yesterday afternoon while in the office. She had this twisty motion. Nothing like taking a phone call from a client while being hoovered by a gold-digging hottie. wasn't really paying attention to the client there for a while.

  54. Resolved Question: Are The Vampire Diaries better written than the Twilight saga?

    I'm talking about the books here. Forget about the movies and series for now. I know in visual format, VD is way better. The Vampire Diaries series was written before Twilight and the ideas are kind of similar, but which is a better book series? I've read a few L.J. Smith books before and they seemed kind of childish to me. Okay, not childish, but not as sophisticated as Stephenie Meyer's writing. Do you think it's worth reading them?

    Asked by Claire W 9 months ago Report Abuse
    Best Answer

    I'm a HUGE Twilight fan but even I have to admit that Stephenie Meyer is not a very good WRITER. Storyteller? YES. The story of the whole series is amazing. But remember, Stephenie Meyer was never a writer. She only made Twilight because she had a dream about it.
    But LJ Smith's books are 1,000 times WORSE, story wise, and writing wise. They sound like they were written by a 12 year old.
    The first 2 books in the Vampire Diaries Series (technically 4, but put into 2 books) were actually ok. The writing wasn't good, but the stories were nice.
    Then you get to the 3rd book and it sounds like it was written while LJ Smith was on an acid trip. Many times you don't even know what's going on, and when you DO know what's going on, you're like, "Holy crap could this get any lamer?"
    Stephenie Meyer is not fantastic writer but my goodness she's much better than LJ Smith!

  55. Glee
    Characters seem genuine and share a close relationship with each other
    Has a distinctive look to the set design, colors, and wardrobe
    Has a more grown-up focus than High School Musical
    Musical numbers are performed only during “rehearsals” and “performances” tied in with the script
    Musical numbers are indicative of the thoughts and feelings of the characters
    Edgier and more humorous approach, think Madonna spoof
    Still within the bounds of PG-13
    High School Musical
    Characters seem to share on on-screen as well as off-screen chemistry
    Distinctive look to the set and costumes as well
    Definitely more upbeat and traditional approach typical of Disney productions
    Musical numbers are interspersed throughout the story
    Music numbers often relate to what the characters are thinking and feeling

  79. Seventh-year lawyer at 10 to 15 lawyer firm. Got $7,500 bonus. Not great, but certainly not bad. I think it was fair. I have friends at other firms who got much less.

  86. Most people need a job. Why should anyone recommend a position to you?

    ReplyDelete
  87. they don't need to recommend a job, I think the post was just asking about information regarding possible openings. Why not post a lead if you have one, especially if you fortunate enough to already have a job.

    @3:17 around the holidays may be particularly difficult to find job openings. Maybe after Christmas things will look more promising.

  88. you could always start a blog about really lame ways to ask for a job

  98. 7:20 pm = dumb and idealistic 1L or dumb and idealistic lawyering process instructor. Go back to rubbing one out while moaning about social injustice, you useless simp.

    ReplyDelete
  99. @10:12: No, not a 1L or an instructor. I'm a licensed practicing attorney and I think I simply fall somewhere between an idealist and a douchebag with a small penis. BTW, that's not moaning about social injustice (not sure where you got that one), it's simply pointing out the fact that out of nowhere, people stared rattling off how much they make and what their bonuses were. I mean, I guess if you need to make up for a shortcoming, money is the easiest and most quantifiable way to do it but that doesn't make it any less boring, lame, or tacky. I'd love to see the bald heads, tiny dicks, and guts that go with all those anonymous people leaving comments. haha! You have a great holiday!! ;-)

  101. @ 10:25 Freud says: you're secretly jealous of the success of others but you mask it with criticism of other attorneys for flaunting what they have earned through hard work and talent. Are you always going to blame other people for your failings?

  102. One of the points of this blog is money. It's nice to see what the market rate for attorneys is, what others are making, whether your bosses are hosing you etc. I didn't get a bonus this year but I'm happy for others who did and am interested in the range that is out there.

  105. I got a bonus as a law clerk at my firm a few years ago when I was a 3L working part-time during the school year. It was only $500, but I was happy with it because I didn't expect anything at all.

  108. Brent Bryson is the attorney for O.J.'s co-defendant. I know he was acquitted for killing a man with a wine bottle in a bar fight. Lol, seriously... But I haven't heard anything about him and his daughter...

  112. bryson also got into a fist fight with another attorney outside of family court a while back. The other attorney was childs, I think

    ReplyDelete
  113. I had a case with Bryson some years ago and I found it pretty disturbing. Rather than getting sharp with each other, stating our positions and moving on, he got really aggressive and threatening toward me. I seriously felt that if I kept stating my position, he might have actually hit me.

    The case is long since over and I haven't crossed paths with him since. Fine by me.

    You better tell that to one of their kids. He was in school telling my child their Dad killed their dog.

    My husband (LVMPD) who's friend was there that night told us they had to call a vet to put the dog a sleep he was so bad off.

  124. Mr. Bryson is currently the attorney in the case of Bower v Harrah's. Mr Bower and four other plantiffs are suing Harrah's Laughlin for damages suffered by them as a result of the brawl and killings at Harrah's Laughlin in 2002, when the Mongols motorcycle gang and the Hells Angels gang fought and shot each other in the casino in Laughlin at 2:15 in the morning the 27th of April 2002.

    Mr. Bower suffered over 500,00.00 dollars in physical injuries and had his pre-existing Neuropsychiatric disability of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, (PTSD) severly exacerbated and damaged by the events of that brawl. Mr. Bower is a Vietnam veteran and served with the 101st Airborne Division during the Vietnam War. He was an infantryman and involved in many battles while serving his country in Vietnam specifically the operation known as Hamburger Hill and the devastating fight at FSB Spear which was overrun by the North vietnamese army. The battle at Spear had over 15 soldiers killed from the 101st and Mr. Bower suffered his initial PTSD from the events of that battle and has had to live with that psychological damage ever since, which was brutally exacerbated by the brawl at Harrah's that took him back to FSB Spear and all of the events he experienced during his time in vietnam.

    Brent Bryson won an appeal before the Nevada Supreme Court in which he eloquently argued that Mr. Bower and the other plantiffs in bower v Harrah's should have a trial and as a result of his superb presentation to the Nevada Supreme court, a trial was granted and the lower courts which had denied the trial were overulled.

    The trial is in progress now in the 8th judicial district court in Las Vegas, room 15D.

  126. I took a week off and was sad to see no action on Wild Wild Law since Thanksgiving.
