Well, Brady Hoke is definitely an expert on failure.

Oh, physician.

Funner bonus fact: you are also wrong about that, too. You can sit for the bar as long as you have an appropriate scientific background, which can be as little as a B.S. If you pass, and you don’t have a J.D., you are not a patent attorney, but a patent agent.

Actually, you should read the rest of the thread. I made it profoundly clear I’m not an IP attorney. I have, however, wasted eight years of my life doing clerk work involving IP law between graduate degrees.

Honestly, you’re approaching the question from a civil or criminal perspective. In doing that, you are almost completely misunderstanding the process of patent prosecution.

+1 star and 8 series (with 9 on the way).

BBC4’s Peep Show (streaming on Netflix) might be my favorite tv show of all time. It sets up its comedy at the three-way intersection of Bleak Blvd., Absurd Way, and Pathetic Drive. The first season is particularly English, but the references get more understandable for Americans after that.

Whitworth has a strong point. Try taking a camera into a strip club and see what happens.

Unless you’re in IP. Then it’s the USPTO’s free and complete database, and their posting of statute.

The real point of this: you should never let a back do something as important as snapping the ball.

Oh, man, if that play would have worked, it could have gone down in history as “The Mayflower.” New England reference, shifty Irsay reference, it all works.

And I’m talking about IP-specific, which is the overarching question of the entire conversation, dipshit.

When I see Harrison Ford in all the promos, he looks like he’s doing an impersonation of Clint Eastwood in Gran Torino.

Come on. Make Cris Carter find his own flatulence fall guy.

Interesting. Blue is, or at least was, the standard for editing in journalism, academia, law, and other forms of print.

I had an editorial job once that required non-photo blue, basically pale blue that didn’t show up on photocopies. I’ll buy the 20 pack of the G2, and use two bright colors to mark text, and then the black, blue, brown, dark red, or dark green to comment at the end.

Yeah. Always go to the secondary source that reposts statute instead of the primary source itself. Excellent. That way, if there’s a discrepancy, you can just blame Cornell, right? Brilliant, and absolutely not transparent and sad. I sure hope you don’t work on contingency.

Unless you grade papers.
