Gore & Grimes was just around the corner from me when I worked in the Law Society (the regularorty board for solicitors in Ireland), I'm now facilities in one of the top ten in Ireland, I find the legal sector a very archaic field, there's so much shit these feckers get away with that in modern business you just wouldn't get away with.

In 2004, Timothy Dumouchel, from Fond du Lac, Wisconsin sued a television company for making his wife fat and transforming his children into "lazy channel surfers". He said: "I believe the reason I smoke and drink every day and my wife is overweight is because we watched the TV everyday for the last four years". The case kept at least two of America's then 1,058,662 lawyers occupied for a while, but did not go to the Supreme Court.
In 2004, Frank D'Alessandro, a court official in New York, sued the city for serious injuries that he sustained when a toilet he was sitting on exploded leaving him in a pile of porcelain. He claimed $5 million compensation. Reflecting on the demanding physical therapy in which he must now engage every morning before work, D'Alessandro declared: "It's a pain in the ass to do all this stuff."

| When I was in high school I worked at a dry cleaners. We had some interesting names come through...Fillerup, Boner and a few others I can't recall. I had a hard time keeping a straight face. Found some interesting items in pockets all of the time too. |
