she is not perfect,

complaining all day

about the rain –

the mosquitos and I

 [May 29, 2005]

 

 

potluck

  Last night, in the rural outskirts of Schenectady, I met an intelligent

person who insisted (despite my defense of the American civil justice system) that

the Winnebago-Cruise-Control-$1.75-million verdict really happened.  Luckily, I

knew that Walter would know — and he set me straight:  It’s an untrue Urban Legend. 

As Mr. Olson says:

“What we wonder is, why would people want to compile lists of made-up

legal bizarreries when they can find a vast stockpile of all-too-real ones just

by visiting this website [and in particular its personal responsibility archives,

older and newer series]?”

 

  Prof. B makes the C List.  [I'm still not leaving a tip.]  Again turning necessity

into a virtue, Prof. Y shuns celebrity status (after scouring the List), and agrees with

Instapundit.
