One Down, Nineteen to Go!
Some attorneys, like the legal editor, freak out about mandatory CLE. They have nightmares about having their license pulled because they didn't get their 20 hour requirement (eventually to rise to 30 hour) finished by the two year deadline, waking up in a cold sweat. Such lawyers also have day dreams about attending their local bar committee meeting, engaging in some casual talk about the cafeteria lunch de jour with the attorney sitting next to them, discovering that this attorney is a partner at a mega law firm who has some extra work he'd love to throw their way, exchanging business cards and ultimately becomming the hero of their office. So, with committee meetings qualifying for an hour of MCLE credit, the LE headed out to the bar association headquarters. No big wigs, but the presentation was painless, the credit nifty-ly recorded by a single swipe of the bar membership card, and lunch was a tasty affair: mini turkey and swiss sandwich, a couple slices roast turkey, rice cooked in some sort of broth, and some roasted green beans.
Monz was too busy defending Keifer and Company to report lunch before we went to press.

I called it in -- no editors answered. Thus my lunch, like the EIC, is a (the) Secret.
