Our house is three stories. There’s an upstairs with shed dormers on the back. The main floor, and a basement that runs about half the length of the house.

As long as it has a GFI, it’s OK, I think

Beautiful! We live in a truly weird house. It was originally a store. Well, first it was a fruit stand, then it was a store. We’ve tried to make changes so it looks more like a home and less like a strip mall. We’re putting a garage on the main level, and we took out the storefront windows and repla...

I know that stadium is in Atlanta but that picture and your story reminds me of my dad. When I turned 16 I asked him to buy me a car. He said, I’ll buy you a car when they start playing night games at Wrigley. It became a little gag between him and me. I called him in 1988, when I was 29, and was li...

Happy Birfday Mrs_V! On cats escaping - <snip> The cats are faster. C'est la vie. When we moved here there were three outdoor cats who came with the house. We promised the former owner we’d feed them, which is all she ever did. One of the cats was already here and full grown when they moved in in 2...

She couldn’t even say his name without laughing.

Every time you show up you’re telling them they don’t need to hire/train/vet anyone else. If it’s not that big a deal to you, then by all means, take the money and enjoy whatever free time you can manage within the schedule. There’s a lot to say about keeping busy and having a purpose. I went throu...

On a more serious note, is anyone else getting tired of folks calling this surrogate crap a 'loophole' in the gag order like Trump and his attorneys are geniuses for walking right up to the judge and holding their hands millimeters from his face and shouting "We're not touching you!"? Bec...

Ah, I think I know what happened. IIRC, the delete option goes away after a few minutes.

It (also?) goes away if some makes a subsequent post.

I was JOKING. Jeez.

Some nimrod told Orly Taitz that he had seen Rahm Emanuel meet with the judge during the Connie Rhodes trial in Georgia (actually, it might have been during the show-cause hearings on sanctions).

Glad my commute didn't include I405 this morning. Yikes! "What we determined was there was a green, older Honda Civic that caused the semi to strike the barrier, which consequently caught on fire," Johnson said. "Initially, the driver — what we didn’t know — got out of the vehicle an...

Yabbut, how much does it cost to have your attorney say, “LOL, No.”?

FYIO, I’m fine. I’m in an ambulance taking me from a small hospital to a larger one, there to have my appendix taken out. Simple surgery, I’ll be home tomorrow, or even tonight. A little woozy, or would have started a new thread somewhere. Follow up comments in a different thread, please. More late...

This article brings to mind the two things those of us who live in tourist areas worry about:

1. No one will show up.
2. Everyone will show up.

comment: from other sources i take it that the final destination was Seoul, and those passengers had a 29 hours journey. I’m still bitter about my 56 hour journey from my hotel in Kathmandu to my home in Virginia - 20 hours of that in the jurisdictional no-man’s-land in the Delhi airport where ther...

Whereas the prosecutor may introduce any of the defendant's out-of-court statements ( provided they are against his penal interest , and many are). In my experience, this is a concept that no prosecutor, very few judges, and not nearly enough defense counsel embraced. If the defendant said it, it i...

Willis could moot all of this by stepping aside.

Isn’t it their duty to object to unnecessary or inappropriate testimony? Sounds like the judge expected them to and would have agreed. Are they trying for a mistrial as in delay delay delay? Is that ethical? Yes and no/"it depends." Yes, a party is expected to object to inappropriate test...

I agree with everything you’ve said about planting seeds, particularly if you have a juror looking for a reason to acquit.

To be honest, I’m surprised more trials don’t end in acquittals. But I don’t think jurors really understand (or care about) reasonable doubt.

Time will tell.
