Alternative Careers

I am always in awe of people who move on from the law to do something entirely different. Like creating baby furniture. What a leap from writing briefs. Click here to find out what one of my law school friends is doing with his time these days (and winning awards while he's at it, as you can see here).

    I am similarly fascinated by people who make the leap. One of my favorite ice cream places was founded by reformed lawyers: http://www.emackandbolios.com/roots.htm

    I wish that I had the guts to do this.

    Shinyung -

    Have you come up with any baby boy names yet? Are you willing to share the ones you like?

    I hope you're taking it easy.

    Hmmmmm...there's a connection between this post on alternative careers and what Above The Law posted today about not having a career if you write a scathing good-bye letter to your firm (http://abovethelaw.com/2009/08/pls_hndle_thx_blaze_of_glory.php). Thought you might have some thoughts about how life does continue beyond the law, afterall. And I come here, and indeed you do! Ha! I love it.
