Public Defenders Overpaid? Right.
So says a hatchet job article in the Boston Herald. The comments do a pretty good job of pointing out how misleading and inaccurate the article is. It’s sad when something like this can be called “news.”
But and so, what the heck has happened to Public Defender Stuff? It’s been silent for a month and while that’s pretty normal on this here blog, it’s very not normal for PD Stuff. Gideon is still posting regularly on his main blog, which is good, but… I miss PD Stuff. Anyone know what’s going on?

You lived in God’s country. You did God’s work as a PD - and I might add, you did a hell of a job at the God’s work you did. You made more than the median income for where you lived; your cost of living was minimal comparatively. And you’re bitching about whether or not Public Defender Stuff is still blogging? I’ll let your clients in the hootchkow know where you stand on this. http://www.bls.gov/ncs/ocs/sp/ncbl1015.pdf
PS Good luck finding a “job.”

Yeah, my decision does not seem exactly wise economically, even less so the longer I go without a job. On the bright side, I’m finding some good volunteer opportunities. One is to help out at PD Stuff, but the others should have me back in the jail doing what I can for the peeps until I get a license. Meanwhile, I’m just a blogging geek. What can I say?

I linked to your blog, because you’re a genius and all that, as you know. But I have yet to properly use this mystical Trackback thingy. So, sorry if my linkage is lacking in statistical assistance-ness.
Here’s the post that references your brilliance: http://gudnuff.blogspot.com/2008/11/there-is-no-normal-anymore-not-my-words.html
Hope you don’t mind. :-)
One problem: your “contact” form is screwed up. It requires 4 fields, but there are only 3 text-entry boxes to type anything into, so there’s no way to contact you (because it keeps insisting you haven’t filled out the form properly), other than to leave a comment such as this.
