I know someone in Manitowoc! He’s in my Christmas card exchange every year.

His name isn’t “Steve Avery” is it?

Nope. Irving Patrick Freleigh. Or so he calls himself on the forum that does the exchange. 😉
I knew I was going to step on the toes of the law profession with this post, so I apologize to any lawyers who read this. It’s profession that’s commonly disparaged, until you need one, and suddenly they’re miracle workers. I speak from experience.

I’m a lawyer and I don’t mind at all laughing at lawyers and our habits — especially the volume of writing we do — it can be comical. I doubt any toes are injured in this post. Besides, isn’t there a theory of assumed risk? Birdcage?

(I won’t post his real name for obvious reasons.)
Have you received an invoice?
If so, res ipsa loquitor.

So there are at least two lawyers here and we’ve called ourselves Birdcage and BananaBreadHead? I think we’ve shown ourselves capable of fun.
Well, since we’re on the subject of lawyers….
