| Jan-09-12 | | playground player: <Jessicafischerqueen> I <always> read the books before I review them (and I probably write at least 10 book reviews a year). Anyhow, you'll like 'em. I don't know how you tie fantasy novels and straight cryptozoology/folklore together, but I am always ready to learn something new. |

 | | Domdaniel: Congrats, yer maj. My eye tells me there may be more statuettes winging their way jesswards. My eye.
PS. Check out Quylthulg's translation of everything into the lingo of <Olny Tru KINgGs!!> ... a Frogspawn nostalgia moment, brought to you by the makers of <Globular Cluster M13>. Now as popular as Bird's Custard among the key *senile space alien* demographic. No doubt some tedious lifeforms will disagree.

 | | Domdaniel: Dear Ms Fischer-Quant
It has come to our attention that you are the Maker of 'documentaries' about chessplayers such as <Nevermetthemanmyself>. You describe him as "most feared" and seem to suggest this is a good thing. Remember that Caligula, Attila ("the Hun") and even "Uncle Joe" Stalin were feared in their day. On accounta the capricious way they killed people, mostly. As *Pacifist Lawyers Against Blood Sports*, we don't actually exist. Doesn't stop us from chasing ambulances, though. Unless you cease and desist forthwith, our political stooges, er, contacts will *take steps* ... they can manage the wobbly little baby kind ... and have British Columbia expelled from the Hanseatic League, the Holy Roman Empire, and the Confederacy of Dunces. yrs etc

 | | jessicafischerqueen: Thanks <Dom>, but you'll have to post any legal inquiries to my lawyer <hms123>. He also runs an internet builder's business so with one go you could also arrange to get your two up, one down bungalow sorted. |
|
Jan-11-12
 | | Domdaniel: <Jess> Sure thing. As <hms> is also *my* lawyer, I think it goes something like this: We both pay him and he releases a statement saying everything is settled. Then he adds an 80% conflict of interest surcharge.
I should change lawyers, I suppose, but Howard is the best in the biz. Congrats again.

| Jan-11-12 | | Boomie: <I should change lawyers, I suppose, but Howard is the best in the biz.> Absolutely. I can't tell you how many times I fell for his `bait and switch` court room antics. Old Bailey will never see his like again unless another Rumpole appears. |

 | | jessicafischerqueen: <Bomb Squad> Exactly. One of his master strokes was having his law degree printed on a dried squid. |
