Did you expect something that Julie said to be true? Did you expect it
to come anywhere close to something credible? If I could give her
credit for enough intelligence I might almost believe that she was
baiting people and mocking them by dropping hints that it was some sort
of spoof. The problem is that she is a pathological liar and like many
others of her ilk, she lies for sport. She lies so much that she may not
even realize that she is lying. It doesn't really matter because it gets
her the attention she craves.

There was no lying. I was trying to get an AA certificate in legal
assisting. Do you think such a certificate would come to me without taking
any law courses? This was a new program when I went to college and they
told me that so far nobody had graduated from it but that they had to warn
me that I would not be able to take any law courses for 5 years with the way
things had so far played out.

I don't lie for sport and I just don't lie! I might get things wrong
sometimes. We all do. But I certainly do not lie.

This doesn't apply to Julie, since she lives elsewhere, but in
California, you don't have to go to law school to be a lawyer. As a
matter of fact, you don't even have to go to school. You *do*, however,
have to pass the state bar exam, which is extremely tough. Every time
it's given, 5 out of 6 people fail. However, I have known a couple of
people that eventually passed after self-study only. One was a railroad
property manager and the other was a timber worker that wanted a better
life. Neither volunteered how many tries it took, but you get unlimited
tries and only have to pass once.

She might have been good at law. Just about every lawyer I have dealt
with has been a liar, so her chronic conflict with reality could be an
asset. The major problem for her would be to keeping her lies straight.

I don't lie, Dave. You just vaguely accused me of lying in another post.
Where was the lie?

One doesn't even need to go to college to get a degree either. Some
colleges will allow life experience or let you challenge courses. Then
there are honorary degrees.
