whew! I've survived the first week of law school. so far so good.

lessons learned so far:

1. most of the kids here are REALLY smart! Its kinda spooky that everyone is really getting this stuff already. I'm surprised and delighted.
2. be careful what you argue about and how you make your arguments.
3. don't waste time.

now...on to my middle east tirade.

check out today's wall street journal, Page W10, Weekend Arts Section for a book review of the new arafat biography YASIR ARAFAT: A POLITICAL BIOGRAPHY, by Barry Rubin and Judith Colp Rubin. (love you tom!)

its about time someone came out and told it like it is...I wasn't ever going to buy a biography about this [bleep], but this one might be worth picking up.
