THIS SO ENRAGES ME!!!! As a lawyer, we all represent people and companies that we may not like. Everyone is entitled to a defense. And for some litigators, including myself, sometimes we get caught up in winning for our clients. I did this when I was a public defender. I have done this now that I am in private

Exactly. As Houston commuter, one of my son’s first words was moron. This is because I am constantly muttering it to myself as I drive. I have learned that it is better to talk to myself in the car than to get into an altercation. After all, in addition to being horrible and inconsiderate drivers, at least half of the

I have loved her since Kids. I was a teenager in Texas when that movie came out. It was given NC-17 rating, and my friends and I snuck in to see it. Only a few short months later, I was a college freshman in NY.

This was the highlight of my day! Where can I send the roses??

I tried Gwynnie Bee, but I was disappointed. My main issue was that I seem to be in the in-between size, in that I probably am between a 12 and 14. The dresses in those sizes are fairly limited. I did the 3 at a time plan, 30-day free trial, and I just cancelled. I probably received 8 dresses total in the 30 days,

I did check my blind spot, but the rider was hauling ass down the divider in stop and go traffic. Dick!

NPR Tiny Desk Concerts, KXPP and You Tube. Only way I discovered some of my favorites: Valerie June, Jake Bugg, Daughter, The Head and the Heart, Ben Howard, Oh Pep!, Oh Wonder!, and The Prettiots! (Please don’t leave me in the greys!).

Wow! This sounds just like my bio-father. He abused my mother until she finally realized that he could and would kill her. She left and filed for divorce when I was 9 (my brother was 6). I was relieved that she was divorcing his ass. From the time I was 9 until I turned 15, I went to see this man every other weekend,

My thought exactly. I would have completely lost my shit and hit this asshole with my car. This is not the appropriate response, but I often react out of pure emotion, then calm down and realize I was a complete asshole. It’s hereditary: my brother is the same way.

I agree that this is a horrible tactic. I almost hit a rider simply because I did not see him driving between the lanes in traffic. I felt like shit that I almost hit him, but then he stopped, slammed his hands on my passenger door and made my 3-yr-old son cry. I then thought he was an asshole.

I was a kid when this happened, but I remember all of the negative shit adults said about Hill. I remember thinking for the first time in my life that adults didn’t know shit. I felt Hill was a victim. Now, Thomas has shown that he is nothing but a complete waste of space on the SCOTUS.

Yes, it had Tori Spelling and the girl from Life Goes On.

I will agree with your statement about North Korea, but not Iran. I know several Americans who have travelled to Iran, and they have nothing but nice things to say about the Iranian people.

Yes, that is true about defense attorneys. The problem is that prosecutors do the same thing, and that is a HUGE problem.

As a lawyer, it is rare when a judge speaks from the bench and delivers such exceptional prose. I have seen it twice. Once when I watched a judge grant my motion to suppress and then dismiss the charges against my client. The second time was when I watched a fellow attorney get charges dismissed WITH PREJUDICE

I WANT TO SEE THIS NOW!

I had dental work done, and was on some heavy duty pain killers as a result. When I found out I was pregnant, I immediately went into panic mode. My son is now 3 and already in pre-k because the montessori said he was too advanced. He is going to be ok.

I had a HORRIBLE experience with Mirena. After about a year, I removed it. I had abdominal pain for about 2 months after having it inserted (which was about 6 week after I had my son). I had spotting the entire year. Only after I removed it did my husband tell me that he could feel the little string hanging on it (to

This has been me this entire damn Penguins season. (I know this will stay in the greys because I am talking about hockey.)

Lazy Town is so so creepy. Thank God my 3.5-yr-old son is smart enough to announce, “That is bad.”
