gram grants. I tried (while exhausted and alone) and failed to become a Carter Administration political appointee to an executive position with the Regional Department of Labor and to become the Executive Officer of the Santa Clara Central Labor Council to succeed the wonderful Emerson Street. I went to Golden Gate Law School, quit the AFL-CIO and worked at Bethlehem Shipyard as a laborer and firewatch. I passed the bar the first time and spent my first 15 years in law as a general practitioner thinking I might become a judge needing exposure to many different fields of law.

I enjoy it and think it is the right thing to do.
