[blindlaw] Request for laptop during essay section denied

Mon Jun 15 06:29:47 UTC 2009

ok i guess it's the borne supremacy

sorry to continue this useless post.
i don't claim to know law and don't know you so i don't know how i am 
considered your colleague.
obviously you are one of the people that think your way is the only way
you obviously can't tell the difference of saying someone is dumb or a 
concept is thought of as dumb
i am always professional when dealing with clients or an agency and i don't 
feel it necessary to always type as if i'm wearing a suit but feel free to 
pull that tie a couple inches tighter.
realize that people offer opinions and hit delete if you don't like it.

>>
>> Frankly, I am getting really tired of the non-attorney participants on
>> this
>> list chiming in on law (or bar exam) issues.  Is this or is it not a list

>> the new drive and enclosure will cost about $80.
