When I was a kid at lawyer camp, we used to leave a rake out, points up, and wait to see who would become the first camper to sue the camp.

Oddly enough, the camp didn't stay open very long. Something about liability insurance.

Update:

Wife gave me the "Do you really need more clutter?" speech.

Nothing about getting rid of them - nothing about them being "dangerous."

Cool!

Sorry Jimmy. But I have to admit, your offer is tempting...

"but I did have a bb surgically removed from my eyebrow..."

---------------------------------------------------

Years ago, I represented a kid who got shot in the upper leg/lower buttock with a BB gun. They had to use video x-ray (fluoroscopy) to locate it and remove it during surgery.

Rob, the doc asked a few times if I was litigating, but I didn't lose an eye and the bills were covered by insurance. The three stitches are barely noticeable.

And regarding playing with them: I haven't played in a decade --- I can wait until spring when I won't lose them in the leaves.

#45 A few years ago, I represented a kid charged with negligent assault. There are many ways to commit assault in Washington, but nearly all of them require specific intent. One exception is when someone negligently assaults another person with a weapon.

Bunch of kids hanging out together, friends for a long time. Girl about to leave, my client playing with a BB gun, then BAM! Hits her right in the eye. She had what I recall was called a vitrectomy (I would have to check the spelling on that). Basically, all of the viscous goo taken out of her eye and replaced with an oil. Looked like she had one large dilated pupil in that eye.

Complete accident, but the girl was forever blinded in that eye. Really sad case. I gained a whole new respect for BB guns after that, and I'd been shot in the leg, arm, etc. as a kid.

Don't go making me hungry Jimmy...

BTW: I think I'll keep the Jarts for a while, but if I had to ditch them, I'd probably just give them to you.

... oh sure, put on a front like you'd be a nice guy and make pretend you'd just give them to me ... *sigh*

- meanwhile, back on Planet Reality, keep your eyes open for a comparable set for me ... I really need to teach my mother-in-law how to play ... 🙂

(that stuff Busa sent is awesome!!)

... and I'll even add a bottle of that to sweeten the trade !!!

Andy,

... I just had our dog walk out of the room while giving me a disgusted look a few seconds after I let out a long silent one with his head in my lap...

... he's rubbing his nose on his mattress/bedding as we speak ...

Nah - Kharma man. I got them for the cost of a lunch. I couldn't accept a big offer like that - if I did, I'd turn the money over to the person who gave me the Jarts.

And diapers or not, it still sounds delish...

I'll make you a batch if you'll just give up and send those out ...

... and I'll pick up and take a homeless man to dinner, give him a few nice cigars, get him drunk and then drop him back off at the shelter - I'll use your name and give him your number as well 🙂
