No, the work front. Some @#$!*% lawyers from Massachusetts are making life difficult for us (in our company) in general (not me in particular).

That's rough and there's only two ways to kill lawyers, a strong insecticide or another lawyer...well, there is the lawyer motel, they check in but don't check out.

If insecticide will do it, let us pray to The Thread for a rain of Sevin Dust!!

The bad lawyers are trial lawyers and politicians. They should be taken out behind the barn and shot. Most other lawyers are ok.

By "trial lawyers" I mean ambulance chasers and class-action junkies, not prosecutors and defenders (although some of them are weasels too).

Ah, the worst of the worst. Bloodsuckers without conscience. Engorged ticks feasting on the blood of America and spreading disease.

I love Fridays, its piza and beer night.

I once heard that there are more lawyers in Seattle than in all of Japan.

Half a dozen smacks with a bamboo cane is "barbaric"..., but Enron and Arthur Anderson bilking thousands of families out of their retirement savings is a "white collar crime" to be punished with fines that won't amount to 5% of the money stolen and a few months in a minimum security facility that a "Boot Camp Marine" would call easy livin'. Bar-B-Quing those clowns as a Super Bowl Halftime show wouldn't be excessive. To paraphrase Ambrose Bierce, a "Lawyer is one skilled in circumventing Justice".

Especially have to love the way that it only takes one wrong character in the data entry phase to throw everything out of whack...

In this case I don't think its data entry errors. Its trying to determine a modifier of maybe +0.5 in something that already varies from 1 to something like 20 or 30.
