Probulator

This week, I’ve been filling out my “Application to Register as a Candidate for Admission to the Practice of Law” in the State of Key Midwestern Swing State. That is, an appli­cation that I have to fill out before I can be permitted to fill out an appli­cation to be allowed to take an exam­i­nation to see if I’m allowed to be a lawyer. Yes, it is an appli­cation to be allowed to file another appli­cation at some time in the future. Isn’t bureau­cracy a glorious beast? Part of this appli­cation is a “character ques­tion­naire.” See, you cannot be a lawyer in Key Midwestern Swing State [ . . . ]
