Glad to be here, I’m Kate

Tuesday, May 3rd, 2011

Hi there, I’m Kate Klonick, the latest of the guest bloggers to check in.

I’m a former journalist (Talking Points Memo, True/Slant, among others) and current law student (Georgetown). It’s been awhile since I’ve blogged, so many thanks to Radley for giving me the opportunity to keep my hand in the honey-less pot of online commentary.

In the past, I’ve written about such varied topics as cross-dressing for Halloween, really awesome blenders, Bobby Jindal’s exorcisms, stingray retaliation, birth control and how to give yourself a financial makeover. Now I mostly just tweet bad puns, lament the decline of the Red Sox franchise, watch my turtle do yoga, and listen to Johnny Cash on repeat.

Needless to say, beyond my love of cute animal videos, privacy and, of course, nut punches, I’m a little unsure of quite what makes me fit to blog on The Agitator, but nevertheless I’m thrilled to be here. Thanks for reading.

    Law school is a hell of a lot of fun. Lawyering, not so much sometimes.

    Who said anything about lawyering?

    Why the hell else go to law school?!

    Hail to Pitt! Verizon Center is nice, though.

    “Why the hell else go to law school?!”

    I went for the crippling debt and lack of job prospects.

    Bobby Jindal’s exorcisms

    Obviously didn’t work as Bobby Jindal is still around.

    Gonzales will produce for you, you just wait and see.

    Kate? That’s an odd name for a boy.

    Takes four or five folks to replace Radley? Well, get to it!

    Sometimes?

    I miss law school.

    #5 made me snort. I hope you fail at THOSE ambitions.

    lament the decline of the Red Sox franchise

    Hey, since the 0-6 start they’re 14-9, and the bats are finally starting to wake up. I just wish they could keep playing the Angels for about 3 more weeks.

    I hope you’re independently wealthy or have a nice scholarship then.

    On a side note, I thought law school sucked monkey balls. Granted I went straight from undergrad to grad school to law school, so I might have just been sick of school. Unlike John and Andrew S., I actually enjoy being a lawyer infinitely more than being a law student, but then again I think I’m one of three people I know from my graduating class who actually like their jobs.

    “Nut punches”? As in “I’ll rochambo you for it”?
