1L - Let's talk about the FYLSE a little.....

2011-11-08T16:31:01Z

Recently I was attending a class on line, and a student (with an obviously superior intellect) posted the following statement. I swear I am not kidding here.

"I just don't understand all this fuss about the FYLSE. It's not that big a deal".

I almost fell out of my chair. Try telling that to the hundreds of students who have had to tackle this monster two, three, four, or more times in order to get past it.

If you were lucky enough to pass the first or second time, get off this site. You don't need it. But if you are part of the 82% (averaged) that had to repeat that wonderful experience, listen to this short podcast and I'll tell you what I had to do to get over the hurdle.

Of course, this is just my opinion.

By the way, this is what I looked like between re-takes three and four. No kidding, just ask my wife.

Oh well, its OVER!

For all you test takers, who are going nuts right now waiting.

2011-11-07T21:07:31Z

It's just a matter of time.

Sit down, be still, close your eyes, visualize your passing grade.

Think about your success........to this meditational music. RELAX.

SOON, you will BE the Lawyer!

2L - CON LAW - Matching Government Action to the correct Constitutional Claim............

2008-07-06T23:30:00Z

Recently I read all about the Guantanamo situation and realized that IF these "combatants" were treated as citizens - well then they needed DUE PROCESS and EQUAL PROTECTION. But they're NOT citizens...oh well, let's set an example for the world, think human rights, and make them "citizens for a day". At least this decision got me thinking. It is true that certain actions can be paired with certain amendments, pretty much every time. Here we go.....

2L - CON LAW - Writing Con Law Essays - the right start!

2008-07-01T23:38:00Z

There are certain issues that should be addressed at the start of any Con Law Essay.

Here is a concise 5 minute sound bite regarding what those issues are.

If you spend your first 5 minutes addressing these issues, you focus your thoughts and your essay should flow more smoothly.

Anyway, listen up! Just my opinion, of course.

1L - Business Torts - take a bite of this!

2007-09-13T00:01:00Z

Well, there is nothing funny about interference with contractual relationships, or future contracts, or trade libel. Listen to this sound bite.

By the way - NOT my teeth.

1L - You invaded my private what??? Oh, privacy.

2007-09-12T23:20:00Z

Jeez, leave me alone, OK? I just want to come home to some peace and quiet. I am really tired of those poster carrying hippies out front claiming that my carbon footprint is too high. So what if I drive a Hummer?

Seriously, take five and review the four major privacy torts. Remember, I am not guaranteeing I got it right. Comments are welcome.

1L - MURDER by death. Yup, that would do it.

2007-09-11T19:07:00Z

Well, you can't just run around killing people without having to answer a few questions. What are you anyway, NUTS? Well, that might work, depending on M'Naughten. I know in my case, it's always heat of passion, but then thank God, I cool off....... Scroll down and click for audio file.

1L - What did you say? Why, you are a DEFAMATATOR!

2007-09-10T23:06:00Z

Well, the moral here is watch what you say
because defamation is in the ears of the target,
and you can't take it back once it's said.

1L - Strict Liability = Res Ipsa's twin.

2007-09-09T22:47:00Z

Well, I guess I have to get rid of those fireworks I have stacked up next to my 87 gas cans in the garage, eh?

And what about this killer rabbit? One free bite? I think not, I see dangerous tendancies all over this critter. So I guess if I stick my hand in the cage, I assumed the risk?

1L - Strict Product Liability - OUCH

2007-09-09T22:42:00Z

I washed my face with that stuff, and OH MY GOD look what happened.

Now what, SOMEONE MUST PAY!

1L - Your LAST CLEAR CHANCE to hear about Contributory Negligence....

2007-09-09T22:32:00Z

When I built this contraption to fix my yard lights,
my neighbor took it upon himself to change the bulb
one day and WHAM, he fell off.

Seems to me like he assumed the risk, but, oh well,
I'm probably going to have to PAY !!!

Sorry about that. This was heavily tested in June, so listen up and let's see if we have it now.

1L - Comparative Negligence? What is THAT?

2007-09-09T22:30:00Z

Well, I blew these questions on the June FYLSE, so here we go, we've got it down now (I think)......

1L - the BIG ONE - Negligence - the MOST TESTED TORT in the Universe!

2007-09-09T22:21:00Z

Listen at your own risk. However, I wrote two solid 75's with these thoughts........

FYLSE TAKERS - Resuming Studies?? YEAHHH Baby!

2007-07-18T17:30:00Z

This is a learning resource site for students at "Anonymous (on line) Law School, America's GOLD STANDARD in correspondence legal study. We'd tell you more but we have been advised to remain undercover about all this studying stuff.

GENERAL INFORMATION - Instructions for Use (?)

2007-04-07T01:38:00Z

This is a learning resource site for students at an un-named on line law school; we would like to tell you where we go but we can't....

What we CAN tell you is that all the myths about not being able to learn the law on line are a bunch of hoooeeey......in fact, many of us know the law much better than our "brick and mortar" counterparts.

Everyone's welcome; ABA or not. Come and get it!
