Friday Links

MPW-7684

Hey, it’s our first Friday Links of 2015! How about that?

As we previously mentioned, Back To The Future Part II is set, at least in part, in the year 2015. When that first was released way back in 1989, that future year seemed very distant. Now it’s upon us. So, now that we’re here, we feel we should direct you to “11 Predictions That Back to the Future Part II Got Wrong” and “11 Predictions That Back to the Future Part II Got Right.” Oh, and if you dig those, you’ve got to see this tweet. Enjoy.

Since this is a law blog, we had to share our favorite lines from Back To The Future Part II, those being:

Marty McFly: [Reading the newspaper from 2015] “Within two hours of his arrest, Martin McFly Jr. was tried, convicted and sentenced to fifteen years in the state penitentiary.”? Within two hours?

Doc: The justice system works swiftly in the future now that they’ve abolished all lawyers.

Ouch. I suppose it’s a good thing for us that such a thing never came to be.

Our favorite headline of late: “Lawsuit Blames DA’s Office for Failing to Supervise Investigators Accused of Stealing High-Priced Comic Books.” (Thanks for the link, Eric Nordstrom!).
