Snow Patrol!
Ever since an allegedly 28 year old Taylor "Soul Patrol" Hicks won American Idol, we've seen some cases of suspect self-age-identification that no amount of Oil of Olay could convince us of. For example, see this dude? He's one of this year's "40 Lawyers Under 40" as anointed by the Chicago Daily Law Bulletin. He went to Harvard, works in a huge downtown law firm, does business litigation and in his spare time runs marathons and charges his Blackberry (tm). In other words, he's an "under 40 (ahem) power user."
There's another paradigm, exemplified by an attorney of a similar age. Standing in line, talking to Judge Hall about his band and their upcoming gigs. Walking up to the person behind the counter. Ordering a roast beef and swiss on rye, with chips and a pickle, and caff free DC. Joking around with the cashier. Responding to the sheriff who recognized him from court today and said "how are you counsellor?" These are the things that made up a yummy lunch at the CSC.

I thought Hicks' fans were the "soul patrol." And this dude is bald -- where's the "snow"? Isn't "Snow Patrol" the kind of fake indie band the Monz hates? Didn't Monz go to Harvard? I'm very confused.
I would NEVER go to Harvard. And you know that! And I do hate crappy indie bands, but I like the good ones. Hope this clears things up.
oh i just wanted to give congratulations on the being Arrogant bit! great job! after all arrogance is simply honesty! excellent!
