    Incompetent attorney

    When a person gets in front of a jury, the jury is going to place a lot of merit on how they handle that person's case based on whether they believe the person or not. If a client lies, and it has a potential to come out at trial, that's not good. If you like someone you are more willing to...

    Those are soft tissue damages, and I am not as confident as you are they are black and white. You need surgery, that's only a small portion. Why haven't you had it yet? It's hard to guess at a prognosis until it happens. I've had back fusion. I walk, work and do other things just fine...

    Incompetent attorney

    I worked as a NY PI attorney for a decade. In my experience, very few cases go to trial. The reason is juries are fickle and nothing is guaranteed. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. This works both ways. If your case is legit worth two million (and most of my former clients...

    17 is legal here. Here's a selfie she posted on Twitter earlier this year.

    ^ For those not aware, a guy posted on reddit he took this picture of his wife who had been staying up late with a crying baby. He then proceeded to go into how difficult he realized it was for her. This devolved into a lot of expected comments about how hard parenting is, and even into a lot...

    In what country? In the US, at least in NY, you can get fired for any reason generally except for a select few (Gender, age, sexual orientation and race). Not defending what the guy did. It's called employment at will. Oh, picture. These two made these costumes. Took something like 16...

    I wonder what kind of updraft that thing creates. Oh, old picture I got form somewhere that still cracks me up:

    The Walking Dead

    I'm older, grew up on a farm and it's totally plausible. My father and mother grew up during the depression. I'm not trying to be an ass, but people now have a really, really misdirected understanding of what you need to live. Perhaps it's too much food, too much having it easy. The last...

    Django Unchained

    I love the over the top stuff Tarantino does. The ending fight scene worked, even though I doubt there were 50 white guys with guns less than a few seconds away. Graphic shot gun blasts right in the head. The opening scene with Christopher Waltz, great acting, fun to watch. Foxx did well...

    JJ Abrams to direct new Star Wars movie

    I like this choice. JJ. Abrams does like the open ended, no answers approach seen a lot with Lost and then with Cloverfield. Star Trek and Super 8 though are good in their own right, both taken in different directions with success. I'm never bored with his movies.

    Mimimum wage laws do apply. The employer is supposed to make up the difference IF the server doesn't receive enough gratuity compensation (at least in NY State). The employee and/or employer usually sign statements effectively claiming the servers make "x" amount in tips. The little secret is...

    Pastor hate aside, the waitress who posted that wasn't even involved. She lied initially on reddit about being the actual waitress who served the Pastor, and now admits she has no clue if a tip was actually left or not. Apparently she's given an interview and follow up interviews over...

    The Hobbit

    Personally, I liked the beginning. It was fine and worked OK. The troll scene didn't. Three long movies from a short book, and they missed out on really developing Bilbo's growth. It's one of the book's key elements. Bilbo's is a placid hobbit who is fat and eats 10 times a day, and grows...
