By The Numbers

A couple of blawg growth stats for you:

Number of blawgs added here in August, 2003: 58.

Total number of blawgs on the B&B blawgroll (bear in mind concerted searching revealed about 10 as of March, '02): 534, including,

• Judicial: 1 (honorary blogger, soon may be the real thing)


• Academic: 39


• Court/Court Staff: 3 (would be 4; removal request honored)


• Political: 11


• Practicing: 186


• Clerking: 9


• Learning The Craft: 129 (category needs attention in light of completion of '03 academic year, commencement of '04)


• Giving It A Rest: 5


• Blawgers At Large: 65 (needs same type of attention as Learning The Craft)


• Integrating: 19


• Managing The Chaos: 21


• Conglomerates: 29


• Truckstops: 17

As always, if you would like your listing to be other than that presently reflected, please let me know!

Today's New Blawg

I love a good law student blawg, particularly one that starts out with a bang not a whimper (from a letter to Senator Rick Santorum):

Mr Senator:

In honor of July 4, I am thinking of exercising my right to sexual privacy under the Lawrence decision. Do you recommend that I:

1. Have sex with my sister?

2. Marry two women?

3. Have sex with my dog?

Please advise.

A Perfect Fit

More audio bliss: Trinny and Susannah were on Fresh Air this week (a rebroadcast from 9/2/02).

Professional Courtesy

Turns out Craig Williams not only dives with sharks (8/29/03), but considerably far underneath them: "A half an hour later, we reached 700 feet in this bright yellow submarine just off the coast of Roatan, Honduras."

Psst, Ernie, we've got a darned fine dive boat shaping up here ... except I can't at the moment. You guys go without me this time as long as I'm in for next year.
