struction at the Bowl, I think both the Mayor and Mr Gordo who are both attorneys should remember that the funds involved are public funds and the public has a right to know. Further there are other issues that have deeper finacial impact that are not being made public. First the current status of press box sales and second the
actual private contributions. The Mayor said in his state of the city
that the contribution had reached $9million, howeve, he negelected to
say that there was only3million actually in hand and the rest were non collectable promise. Since the Rose Bowl is currently operating at a $2
Million anual deficit how are they going to pay the debt service on the
bonds

Dont know if getting prepared to go back to school or to PAY for school is what discourages most people? Forge ahead but dont stop writting.

Good luck with that. You’ll need it and thensome to pay off a six-figure debt and to endure the travails of law school. Don’t give up your day job. More due diligence would be good, given your fancifully romanticized notion of law as “combat” and what you optimistically envision as a fruitful practice niche. At least, read Paul Campos’ blog and a few of the online so-called ‘scambloggers. Best wishes whatever you do!
