Back From Outer Space

All apologies, but I had a computer meltdown. But fear, not! My time was not spent idly...well mostly. I learned a few things from my clients on my time off. and i have a few new vocab words that may or may not violate some confidentiality whatevers.
1. telling someone that your retainer is $2500 and then allowing them to make payments and then actually only getting three installments of $286, $214 and $96 (not $100 because he 'needed a sausage biscuit' on his way to pay me) shall be henceforth known as "Pulling a Gipson". Although a Gipson can also mean believing that the commencement of an action to modify child support is enough to relieve you of that obligation until further adjudication. Cuz whats the point if its gonna change, right?

2. Crazy people pay more consistenly than the sane. And they insist on doing it in person.

3. Telling callers you are NOT an attorney, but rather a secretary will not get you out of being asked the most asinine legal questions, accompanied by their life's story.

4. Most attorneys pretend to be attention-seeking because they think thats right, but in reality they run from exposure like roaches when teh kitchen lights come on.

5. Never get a boob job in Knoxville...from a dentist. The med-mal attorneys fees are way more than a plane ticket to LA where you can get it done right the first time.

6. There are some perverts in this thing of ours. Thats cool and all, its just kinda funny too.

7.You can get less time in OP Court for biting your ex's ear off than for calling her 124 times. Bon apetit.

More to follow.
