I hate my life. I would do anything to be a teenage punk rocker again. Once upon a time, I was full of energy and anger and played in The Speedbags.

I look back at that time, and it was the greatest. Do you understand how disgusting it is to envy your 15 year old self?

When I was 15 and in The Speedbags, it was the greatest time of my life.

I cry every day and can't loving sleep anymore and have a constant paid in my chest. All that I ever wanted to do was make rock and roll my life.

I just want to be 15 again.

Yes, we were generally well treated and the folks around us were cool. One group of meth heads after the game made obligatory Katrina references but that's it.

I used to not be able to stand that dude, but I think I get his schtick now and actually find him pretty damned amusing. He only seems to post here when he is wasted and I think if I did the same thing my Rap Sheet would look like his. Also, his high school band kind of ruled judging by the songs. A way better Screeching Weasel ripoff band than the Screeching Weasel ripoff band I was in during high school.

It amazes me that Izzy managed to get an offer after his summer associate work, given that he comes across as completely narcissistic and insane. How could anyone who has worked with him for any length of time actually think he's a good hire? He's an alcohol / drug overdose death waiting to happen.

Return dignity to the art of loafing.
Ok so kind of a long shot but does any kind person have much experience with federal laws relating to forestry service land?

Also related to that- does anyone have any experience finding out public information on forest service land in particular certain areas/divisions of it?.

Want to look at this small piece in North Carolina. An associate is interested to try and swap arguably more valuable for the public good up river land. (The motivation being if the small hard to access slice of forestry land was able to be added to his land into a contiguous unit it would increase its value significantly.)


Gonna start my own research soon but was wondering if some kind person had much experience/could refer me to where to look.

Actually, I'm quite a pleasant and polite person in real life. But, when someone's complaining quite loudly in a public place about not finding a six figure job straight out of college in a region not known for those types of jobs, my sympathy lessens a bit. Anyhoos, back to studying I go.

All I know about as far as court-appointed work is CJA panel work in federal court, but I don't really know anyone who works in that area. When I was younger CJA stuff was pretty tough to get (not like in San Diego, where anyone with a license got put on the list and every morning the magistrate would go down the list assigning new immigration/drug/coyote cases to people).
