    YOU GO GIRL!

    Any chance you can accelerate some of those legal classes? With Polkfest coming up...uhhh....some of us may need representation.
    No excuses!

    Hey! I have another month and 8 days before I am in the club!LOL:D

    I have a little bit of a legal head start I guess you could say.

    Thanks everyone. It will be tough ...especially with my current situation...but I am excited to start this new life.

    Congrats Darla. It is inspiring to see someone on their late 30's early 40's still thinking in preparing themselves for life. It will pay out big time!!!!

    Wing --

    The next time I get arrested, will you defend me?

    "It wasn't me." -- that's my story and I'm stickin' to it.

    After that it's off to Law School Baby!

    My 2 best friends are lawyers...and I have many of them as clients, as well as having to deal with them on a regular basis for business reasons.

    My condolences.

    Good luck. I have been thinking about taking some courses too but I am unsure if I can juggle work, studying, and family. I think I might start out slow and see if my old brain can handle it. It is nice to here that you are getting your life back on track.

    As Steppenwolf said, "It's never to late to start all over again".

    I get a mental image of you in a courtroom, the gallery packed with Polkies, you rise, address the court, "Your Honor, I'd like to ......"

    .....and proceedings are interrupted by arguments breaking out in the gallery over cables/politics/religion/speaker placement/tubes vs sand/unions/immigration/watts vs amps/the weather/shoe sizes/etc.

    Yep, it's all good !
