True story: I've probably been sued about 6-7 times. All of them were dismissed except one which went to trial (and my partner and I won, by the way). During the trial, the plaintiff put up a large (2 foot by 3 foot) copy of the anesthesia record. During the defense part of the case, our attorney (my partner and I were both being sued), put up the same exhibit that the plaintiff's attorney had put up. "Dr. R, does this reflect your anesthesia record?" "Yes it does." "For the jury can you tell us what these marks and comments mean?" (Dr. R explains comments) "Dr. R, did you go to a Catholic school?" "Yes, I did." "And this is your handwriting?" "Yes." "The nuns, allowed this?" My parter shrinks in the witness's chair." Jury laughs. Then, it was my turn. "Dr. K. Is this an accurate representation of your comments on the anesthesia record?" Me: "Yes, it is." "Dr. K, did you go to a Catholic school as well?" Me: "Yes, I did." My attorney walked away from the easel holding the record, shaking his head. Jury laughs.

@George-K said in Classical vs Pop music: Most classical music makes me want to throw a chair through a window..... Hmpfh..... Philistine. But you knew that, of course. ("Philistine" means a : a person who is guided by materialism and is usually disdainful of intellectual or artistic values b : one uninformed in a special area of knowledge) George, do you prefer Ode Rico or Parfum de Vandoren?

@brenda said in Denying Christians: @Mik said in Denying Christians: But yeah, if access to banking is being denied for political reasons I have a huge problem with that. This. But guys, this isn't over political reasons, these are basic questions of good vs evil. Right and wrong! They are entirely justified. They should probably set fire to the headquarters of GiveSendGo, just in case.

@Doctor-Phibes said in Residuals: He'll always be that asshole Lieutenant Sobel to me. I never saw an episode of Friends, so yeah, he'll always be Sobel to me as well. Link to video

I watched an NBA game a couple days ago. Omg the names on the backs of the jerseys. Freedom and BLM and Justice everywhere. What a bunch of primates we are. lol. SMOD will be doing the universe a favor but I’ll enjoy it all while it lasts.

Blame Marlon Brando.

@Mik said in My apologies to Alan Rizzo: I would think on this auspicious birthday you could have found something a bit more introspective to apologize for.... Funny I posted that before realizing it was my birthday. These days my first inkling is when I go on social media.

MMT.

Definitely! Delaware probably 21-28 but back after. Maybe Annapolis, etc.

@Klaus said in Hate Chrome: I must say I really prefer Edge these days. Is Chrome the new Netscape? Haven't tried Edge much. I like Chrome... it's fast, too. Isn't Edge built on the same chromium baseline?

I hear that Tandy TRS 80 is pretty sweet...

@LuFins-Dad said in Photoshop this out, please: I don’t know... I’d be pretty embarrassed if my son wore a Redskins cap... Not because of political correctness, but just because they suck. As always, the voice of reason.

Another one... First, an A list writer lays out a demo of a song he's written. You will hear what is called a "click track". That insures the beat stays consistent. Yes, most start out this basic: Link to video Next step, the song gets pitched, an artist picks up the song. It goes to the sausage makers. The finished sausage is now ready to be laid to tape... (except they don't use tape any more...) Link to video Now here's that same songwriter after his sausage was made.... Link to video

@Mik Pretty funny. LOL

Congressmen were never meant to be anything, other than part-time and their service was just that - service. That's why their terms are only two years. The Senate is the more deliberative body, supposedly populated by wiser heads, less subject to the whims of the moment, hence their six year terms. You get what you pay for, applies to crooked politicians.

Interesting. I remember when I was in india, the houses built in some of the poorer areas made from cow dung bricks. Fairly common there.

AZ held an investor call today. This is their second halt, last person ended up being diagnosed with MS so they didn’t attribute her adverse event to the vaccine. https://www.statnews.com/2020/09/09/astrazeneca-covid19-vaccine-trial-hold-patient-report/
