Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for May 15, 2013

Billing? Going up.Standards? Going down.

Do you know which circles those are in Dan Brown’s new book?

Maybe they can find it together?

You can pick on them till you need one.I have seen too many go down “defending” themselves.And when in doubt “Take the damn deal”I remember one poor sap.Offered deal. One year jail. 10 probation. Small fine. DWI Third time. He fought it. Got 10 years jail hard time no parole, big fine. His claim. Well at least I don’t have to serve probation.

Remember Will had a character say that who was trying to hoodwink people — it was meant to imply ‘get rid of them and we can run rough-shod over people’. …

Number Six,Did you ever get an answer?

Good old Will. No disrespect to him (or you), but we need to update that, really – These days we’d be well served to begin with the sociologists, then move on to the lawyers.

Number Six,That answer was number one. I nearly fell out of my chair.Definitely was a lawyer. A good one too.

@ Bruno Zeigerts: Actually, I think that sharks compare favorably to lawyers. At least sharks fill an ecological niche and can be made into a tasty soup. Can the same be said for lawyers?

Going down? Don’t forget to pick up your complimentary dickie at the front desk….the big guy doesn’t take well to those who break dress code in……HELL!
