"a web log written by lawyers and/or concerned primarily with legal affairs."

Topics shall also include
- linguistics (often as it relates to law)
- politics and current events
- philosophy and jurisprudence, and naturally
Stuff Worth Reading, which includes books, articles, posts, caselaw, and more.

Unused and Probably Unusable

-- a linguistically inclined blawg

First post: redux
Q. What happens when a duck?

A. Nothing, just a duck.

Q. What happens when a duck, again?

B. Reducks.

"Hello, World" from the glamorous foreign shores of PowerBlogs. I'll be blogging here from now on, I suspect; Blogger's free and all, but it's unstable, limited, got a squinky (technical term) interface, and I want to explore the possibilities of Post Chaining and the other powerful tools PowerBlogs (henceforth Powerblogs) boasts. So: Blogger delenda est.

As background information, you can click here for the previous Unused & Probably Unusable site on Blogger. U & PU is, was, and will be a blawg, meaning a "law blog" - one written by a lawyer (or law student, or law professor, but I'm a lawyer) or otherwise covering the law or legal topics.

As a reminder, which should be unnecessary on the web, I'm a lawyer but not Your Lawyer. This is not a site intended to give or offer legal advice, freely or otherwise; if you need a lawyer, feel free to say so, but I can't guarantee that anyone will respond helpfully. This is not part of my job, this is my hobby.

If you happen to be in Philadelphia and need a lawyer and can't afford one or don't know how to look for one, please call the following number: (215) 238-6333. (click below for more information)



As before, I anticipate opening comments to all, but would love to respond directly if you are registered with powerblogs or have an (anonymous is fine) email address and want to converse at more length on any topic you read about here.
