Weeee!

Here's one of the little known perks of being an attorney: courthouses have very nice bathrooms. Having thrown $100,000 on a legal education, we are not about to sit on toilet seats that have those weird paper covers on them. Oh no. We get the kind that are motorized, and change automatically. Do you think Stephen Breyer would put up with anything less?
Having now spent the past few years in courthouses, and the past month in courthouses all through the Midwest, I can safely claim that courthouses possess the nicest public bathrooms in the land. At least federal courthouses do. Do you know where those $800 toilet seats went? I found 'em!
Of course, you too can use these fabulous federal courthouse bathrooms. All you have to do is present a government-issued ID, step through a metal detector, and tell the US Marshals at the gate where you are going.
Make sure you buy a pop. They don't like it when all you do is come in to use the restroom. Also, bring something to read. It's not like we leave North Eastern Reporters lying around or anything.
