After a steady diet of depressing news, you may need a good belly laugh. Quit reading about Biglaw and its transparent attempts to pass off austerity measures as farsightedness in Above the Law. Read about them in The Anonymous Lawyer in our blogroll (look right, scroll down). You’ll find the AL version much funnier.

And to get you started laughing, here’s an internal memo that appeared today in the WSJ Law Blog. No, its not a real law firm internal memo — it just has the look and feel of one.

By the way, if you are a managing partner thinking about writing a memo to the yearlings, read a few Anonymous Lawyer posts. It may protect your memo from getting top billing tomorrow morning in Above the Law, followed by immortality in Anonymous Lawyer.
