Arrested Developments

Sorry the posts are light over the past few days. I'm working on our office's Reply to opposing counsel's Response to our firm's original Motion to Compel. The turnover times for these things are short. None of this 4 week time-table for drafting documents that I oh-so-fondly remember from 1L Legal Research and Writing.

Anyhow, just some quick gossip.

Recently, I posted about how I had an internal freak out when a police officer moseyed into the firm and I schizophrenically convinced myself he was there for me. Among the possibilities I listed, Ann pointed out that I was also guilty of corrupting youth and public indecency when I recently removed my pants and handed them to an Eagle Scout. Fair enough. Good form picking up on that.

Anyhow. The cops came back. Again I was convinced I was going down. Again it wasn't me. Not this time. Instead, the secretary at the firm across the hall was being escorted from the building in handcuffs. She works for the Bad Guys. You know, meanies that defend huge corporations when they do things like... I dunno... sell products on a national market that - oops - kill lots of people. Or argue that all those kids got luekemia thanks to the genes of a great-great-grandmother who had breast cancer once, not their corporate client who happened to dump tons of filth into the drinking supply. Firms like that. The Bad Guys. Apparently, it's contagious and this secretary did not receive the proper immunizations.

Not sure what she did but the entire building is just dying to find out.
