Geeklawyer to run rampage through the next Blawg Review?

In an act of, possibly, drunken self-confidence the editor of Blawg Review some 18 months ago invited Geeklawyer to do the July 4th review. The normal remit of Blawg Review is to provide balanced intelligent incisive and/or amusing reviews of global law blogs. Quite what possessed him to invite Geeklawyer to do it is beyond comprehension. Indeed ‘Ed’, now sober, seems to be of a similar view if today’s email is to be believed:

“Hello Geeklawyer,
With trepidation, we’re looking forward to your presentation of Blawg
Review #166 next Monday.

Tripping lightly over the use of the royal ‘We’, Geeklawyer is hard pressed not to sympathise. Does a moment of drunken hubris survive a retraction of appointment? “Dear Geeklawyer we think that, like Lord Byron, you are mad bad and dangerous to know. But unlike him, with no discernable talent, so we have given your slot to a lawyer

Apparently not.

Nonetheless should any law related blawger/blogger wish to subject himself to the mercies of Geeklawyer they may be assured a sympathetic response. No guarantee will be given of review since space is limited but UK blawgers are particularly welcome. However, tedious European blawgers can keep themselves to themselves, thank you, as even a Europhile like Geeklawyer has a bordedom threshold more than 1 nanometre high.

Submissions should be made to Geeklawyer via the Blawg Review submissions page.
