Reading comprehension, like math, is hard.

Someone told me last night there is such a thing as irrational numbers. I have heard of imaginary numbers before, but not irrational numbers. Do we really need these things?

A truly dedicated GA would strive to overcome those limits.

What's to analyze? You just shoot up the building blocks and make everything go boom.

By last night, I thought I had, but I came in this morning to find I wasn't fired. I've failed again.

What you want to do is convince one of the two lawyers that because you do more complex law than they do, and/or you have a bias for/against little guys, they do not want you on their jury.
Better yet, every time the defendant's lawyer talks look away and whenever the plaintiff's lawyer talks say "Ch-ching!"

Eddie's remake was funnier (although Garrett's huge balls alone trump Eddie's effort).

Ask these three questions:

1. Can we award more than the plaintiff asks for?

2. Does it really matter since the insurance company pays for it all anyway?

3. Why should the plaintiff win the lottery? I have to go back to work after this trial.

I am a fan of the assimilated negro. Does he have a big readership? I thought I was special.
