Alrighty Then ... There You Go.

It's the new me. Or, rather, it's the same old me, it's just a newer image of me. Because, after all, this blog is all about me, me, me, isn't it? Okay, whatever. I just took this pic with the camera in my laptop. I'm sitting in the seat that I occupy most of every day. Of course, I don't always wear a tie, but I was in court this morning and so I thought it would be a good day for a new picture!

GP,

Over the past five years, of you taking the exam, how often, have you seen issues repeat themselves, in the essay part of the exam, trying to figure out, the testing tendencies of the examiner, in so much, as hitting on certain issues, every so many exams, have you spotted a certain pattern to that?

Mr. John Doe, Esq: I agree, thanks. I'm currently finishing up the initial version of my private investigator website and that's the picture I'm going to use there.

Anon: 8:21: The State Bar tends to test the same set of issues on all exams (e.g., for Torts: negligence; strict liability; defamation; products liability; etc.) and the most common ones can be determined by looking at past exams. A list of the subjects that been tested since 1999 can be found on Jason Tolerico's website here: http://one-timers.com/students. Many people have gone through this process, and it's a good learning experience as well.

THIS CERTAINLY IS A SAD DAY IN YOUR BLOG'S FIVE YEAR HISTORY.

JUST A SUGGESTION IF I MAY, PERHAPS BEING A BIT MORE LIGHT-HEARTED, MAY ACTUALLY HELP YOU PASS, THE EXAM THAT YOU WILL BE TAKING IN JULY 2012.

Anon 7:52: It may be a sad day but, considering how long I've been at this, what's one sad day here or there. In contrast, there have been many, many good days. At least I didn't shut the comments down completely, eh? I've done that before, you know.

Anon 2:57: Indeed. "Positive" is my middle name!

GP, thank you for cleaning up your blog. 7:52, that was a jerk comment. And why would anyone come to a CA Bar prep blog expecting humor?
