Memorable, though not first, time, 40 years ago. Working as a gopher at a small law firm, just out of college. Older male lawyer, from a wealthy family, intensely and vocally interested in my ass, invites me out, so clearly (in retrospect) trying to f*** me. At the time, I was just an idiot from Oklahoma. Senior…

This sounds so smart. I just am not sure I understand exactly how it works in the classroom, and especially at home. No disrespect at all, just wondering WHAT SHOULD I DO? not like my kids are that young any more (in 20s). But I am interested in the issue. Thanks

you are a great sister. he really needs what you can give

When people talk about the flu shot at the watercooler or whatever, I do think the popular perception is, “Is there a point?”

Wow, where did that come from? Poor sis. My sister is 6 years older than me, and we are close. But that may be because our parents were serious alcoholics, and we kind of had to bond or be alone. Some small competition at young ages - she was brilliant, I was cute. But mostly just BS. Often fostered by distant…

I wonder if negligent infliction of emotional distress is recognized in the applicable jurisdiction. Maybe only in California. Not sure it would apply here, but that is about the broadest negligence theory I am familiar with that even might apply

Right. Unless I am missing something, I make it in a french press and I don’t have to buy anything new.

Don’t throw them out. Give them to assisted living places. I do, and the folks seem to like it.

right, unfortunately. Big cities are blue. We keep trying.

don’t tar us all with the bad acts of our state leaders. we’re trying to vote them out and thwart their actions.

This seems weird. The daughter is 7 years old. She’s not wearing make-up, I hope. So ZS, whom I love, may be right that looking in mirrors for a long time will lead to (in a few years) in 1.5 hour make-up application sessions, but focussing on makeup right now kind of isn’t helpful. I’d be kind of worried if my…

Pretty cat. Is this yours or an internet cat?

Almost missed the spelling coup. Could not agree more.

The point being that in my state’s evidence rules, you don’t have to have a particular degree to testify about some stuff. You just have to know more than the average juror. Like a person can testify about the value of their own property — you don’t have to hire an appraiser. So my guess here is that this prof will…

Maybe, but I think it’s just one of the many experts that she’ll call, so I don’t think you can say that no one with a psychology or psychiatry degree will testify. This could be someone the court allows as a background to other expert testimony

she did! I’ve got to rewatch the entire episode again. She is so beautiful too

glad it was bonnie. glad it was the one who seemed so perfect. the sort of outsider.

anyone else troubled by PwC firing both the goofball man AND the woman, who seems to have done nothing wrong? what’s the deal?

Ok, I’m wrong. It’s the teen

Is this photo the teen? I think this is the NYPD officer who was in the news. Photo of teen in paper looks different.
