Dang. Some professions get all the luck. Do you remember when lawyers in Pakistan started taking to the streets and getting violent over the dubious dealings of Pervez Musharraf? There'd be pictures in the news of all these educated, be-suited dudes marching down the streets, ready for a fight with riot police. And they were the nation's finest lawyers! Also the Buddhist monks in Burma who took their staffs and started whooping on the junta's soldiers. How do I get into a business like that, where the creme de la creme are also badass public fighters? Do you think book editors will ever start throwing Molotov cocktails?
