Member in good standing means he has paid his dues . But it also details on the bottom of those pages that profile part of the page is to be updated by the attorney I believe the only portion they edit is the disciplinary part at the bottom.

Technically he's not disbarred for another 30 days, though he's not allowed to take on new clients during that time.

I predict there will be blood in the streets as Jack Thompson can no longer use the law to hold back the legions of murderous teenagers influenced by Doom. This is truly a tragic day for America.

Wow. Who would have thought we'd actually get a good outcome from this? Now if only Congress would vote down the bail out plan, we'd really be getting somewhere.

Heads Up:

I don't think he's worthy of a new thread but our favorite [former] attorney is going to square off against Penn & Teller on this week's episode of Bullshit. For those that have Showtime anyway.

I'm new to Showtime, but I think new episodes air on Fridays.
