DYK here's a random fact about me:


DYK I was a legal secretary for the State Bar of Texas


DYK it was a fun job -- handling all the misconduct trials for bad attorneys.


DYK I never had any desire to be in the legal field until I had that job.

DYK one of my favorite stories from working at the bar -- that I can tell -- is that so many people misunderstood that State Bar had NOTHING to do with drinking, clubs, and the such.


DYK one lady called to file a grievance b/c the "bouncer pulled her out of the line dance."

dyk yesterday was vet visit day for one of our cats


dyk somehow our psycho-cat managed to pull out one of his rear claws


dyk we came home to "pools" and splatters/drips of dried blood Saturday evening


dyk DS #1 took him to the vet to get checked out yesterday afternoon


dyk the nail quick is still there, so it's just a matter of time until he's back to normal (or at least his version thereof)


dyk in the meantime both cats have to be locked in the basement at night


dyk psycho cat will wake us up if he isn't, because he usually goes outside for the night, and the primadonna because she can't go all night without the litter box


dyk psycho cat seems to like the drugs he was given so that's good

dyk I guess it is human nature to wish that, if things like this must happen, they should happen in someone else's neighborhood!

dyk very frustrating!


dyk we went through a similiar situation a couple of years ago, when John's former firm decided to eliminate his practice group and he did not take them up on their offer to switch groups


dyk he is in a much better position now


dyk I am curious; is your BIL a general litigator?

DYK sometimes I feel really sorry for "strangers" who visit "our board"


DYK I was all ready to fire up a smart a** reply to someone's question, then I realized they weren't a "regular" and wouldn't catch the humor.


DYK at least I cought it before I hit post. ;-)
