Learned Hand? Meet Learned Foote.

As many of you may know, I am mildly obsessed with Judge Learned Hand, arguably the greatest jurist never to win a seat on the U.S. Supreme Court.

Which is why I nearly fell out of my chair laughing reading this post over at the Wall Street Journal's excellent Law Blog.

Fred Foote, a New York attorney, shares my obsession with Judge Hand. Thus he named his first-born son Learned Foote. Seriously.

Hilarity ensues.
