In case you haven't heard, I'm a lawyer now.  Got sworn in last week.  Hillariously, the ceremony was at the Oakland Convention Center, where I took the exam twice (passed the second time).  I was expecting it to just be a formality, but it actually felt very meaningful when I was there.  They had several federal judges and convened a session of the Federal Court for the Northern District of California.  A US attorney made a motion to admit, and the clerk swore us in on the record.  My wife and mom were there and I got to hold my son as I took the oath.

After another haitus, I'm back online.  No thanks to AT&T. Now that I've canceled my DSL and am safe with Comcast, I can tell the story.

Two pieces of news.

First, I am now officially awesome: the California Bar has listed me as an attorney with Active status.  Check me out.

I just discovered that my gallery wasn't showing up if you didn't log in.  The gallery was supposed to be the crown jewel of the new site, showing off my amazing integration skills (which I just learned).

Oops.

Anyway it's working now.  Turns out it was a newbie mistake that I made simply because I'm not used to Drupal yet.  The website is missing a couple other key pieces of functionality, including email subscriptions.  If this is a feature that you really missed, let me know.

As promised, here's the new site.  Just in time for my swearing in later today.  (Then I'm still not a lawyer; I have to send in paperwork and wait for it to be processed.  Once I'm listed on the California Bar website, then it's official!)  Here's the recent news:
