BAR HOPPING

I am quite amazed that despite the stress and tension during the bar exam month, people were still able to come up with jokes and spread the fun through text messaging. Pinoy ingenuity ikanga.

Here are just a few of the quotes (i hope you can relate):

"Tips on Civil Law: Who are the members of the Inter-Country Adoption Board? How many members are there? Where are their residences? What is the name of the utility guy? Define love."

"Tax Pyramiding- n. A kind of geometric tax that is neither direct nor indirect and is vanishing from the tax base to the top but shifts the burden of defining it from the examiner to the examinees"

"What is the color of Dinky Soliman's hair highlights? (The examinee should know this as her face is widely shown on tv and the newspapers these past several months)"

"Tips on Legal Ethics: The Supreme Court has recently announced awardees for Award for Judicial Excellence (published in Manila Bulletin). Name at least 5 and exlpain their contributions and cash prizes. Examinees should know this this Justice Gutierrez is the Chair of the awards committee."

"A new crime enacted just this afternoon, BARRICIDE, intentional killing of barristers through extremely confusing Criminal Law Exam amounting to deprivation of sanity."
