Avvo, an online search service to help you find a lawyer, has posted 10 amusing tips on how to date a lawyer.  Here is a link to their story, but I’ll give you the Cliff’s notes version.

1) Fish where the fish are - To meet a lawyer, you need to be in a lawyer-rich location. Topping the list is Washington D.C. and New York.

Readers, I need your help.  I have the entire week off from work (as does my entire office).  Yay for working for a French Company.  Europeans LOVE to take vacations.  So, with a whole week of freedom, I need some ideas on how to spend my time (besides of course New Years Eve).

Any thoughts?  Help a brotha out?
