back again–
the driftwood thrown
with all my strength
explaining it,
my life sounds frivolous–
holly berries

Despite the headline Metro Lawyer Lives Up to $625 Hourly Rate (NYL/Conn. Law Trib., Oct. 4, 2004)
I wonder how Gary I. Cohen has the chutzpah to ask for a “success bonus” after chalking up 300 billable
hours, that’s $187,000+ at $625 per hour, in a matrimonial case. Does it matter whether the client signed a contract permitting a Success Bonus? Should a fiduciary put the client on the spot asking for a tip?
Are you naive about PC (computer, not social) risks? The National Cyber Security Alliance says lots of Americans are. “Statistics actually show people have a ‘0.0000102% chance of being hit by lightning’ while they have a 70% chance ‘of falling victim to a computer virus, phishing attack, malicious hack attempt’ or other PC security problem.” (via TVC Alert)
