...and the number one thing law students can do on Christmas Day... is admit they've been writing an anonymous weblog.

Gosh. I seem to be in the New York Times today. Kind of surreal. My cover's blown. There goes the job at the CIA.

The article's neat, and anything I add here is just going to spoil it. Chris and Sherry have done a better job explaining this than I'm gonna be able to do anyway. So for more, I point you there. They're both awesome. NeoTokyo and Evan have really nice posts too.

All I do want to say right now is that Anonymous Lawyer really has nothing to do with the firm I worked at this past summer. As I've written before, they're a great firm, and if I was going to work at a firm, I'd absolutely work there, in a heartbeat. I met a lot of great people over the summer. Partners, associates, and lots of other summers. I started Anonymous Lawyer more than two months before the summer started. It wasn't a reaction to the firm, and it's not an indictment of them. The firm was great. Anonymous Lawyer is a satire of the broader industry, and I hope that's how it's taken. I'd hate for it to be interpreted otherwise.


More later.
