    Here's the thing. I like loyal guys. I like gritty guys. I like the guys who ride the bench and may get into a game or two and make an impact. The sixth or seventh or eighth man. I will root for this team no matter what because I'm a loyal alumnus and I sure as hell don't feel like getting...

    We're orange and blue so we're just waiting for the anvil to fall on our heads, I suspect.

    Man, those late 1990s and early 2000s Pontiacs and Oldsmobiles had absolutely ruthless engines. I've owned two other V6s since then (I've got a turbo Outback Wilderness that can hold its own) and while my Nissan Maxima probably had the best horsepower and drive of anything I've had the pleasure...

    I'm on day three of Covid isolation (which isn't bad for a mom tbh but I just got back from Vegas (work conference) so my poor husband is on week 2 of flying solo) so this stuff is getting me THROUGH, along with Ken Burns documentaries.

    Vontae Davis passes away at 35

    Dammit. I just saw it on ESPN and I'm so upset. He seemed like a good dude. May his memory be a blessing.

    LMAO I make no excuse for conflating the two as I now practice labor law and use preponderance of the evidence as the standard in most of my disciplinary and contractually based arbitrations. They're closer together than reasonable suspicion and beyond a reasonable doubt, but as I mentioned...

    It's *possible* I guess. There are two ways of looking at it. The first is that all you really have to do in an affidavit or complaint is establish probable cause (the 'more likely than not' 50+1 standard). The other way of looking at it is that you jam all the info in there that you can to make...

    I'm not sure average folks realize the day to day banality of some aspects of law enforcement and the legal system. Where people become cogs (or 'delta' and 'pi' in shorthand in file notes) and rushing to get a case to a prosecutor is the order of the day. Or slow walking if you don't want it to...

    If you can successfully use the word 'ancillary' in a non-legal context you are now able to practice in Alabama. Also I *am* a lawyer but am not to be taken seriously. :LOL:
