Nutshell Kingdom: Xtreme Law School
2003
Picture this: front cover, Washington&Lee's law school admissions catalog. Me: two hours sleep, hair tousled, greasy, face red-eyed. wearing faux retro X/Los Angeles t-shirt notquite concealing smallish beer gut, blue jeans, and discount 18 month old white New Balance tennis shoes. You smell the nicotine and coffe at a glance.
Beneath: a heading (or footing, I guess) "Washington & Lee: Xtreme Law School. This place ain't for pussies."
Ya'll. It's only the second day of class.
