nicely, that a particular type of case is above his/her skill set?

What I've said to associates: "I've decided to have MacGillicuddy handle that case - she's got a ton of experience with these type of bogus TMJ claims."

What I heard [redacted number of] years ago from a GP: "Son, them boys at Shea & Gould ain't never heard of the Marquis of Queensberry. They'll eat you alive, and the A&P won't like that. MacGillicuddy is getting this one."

I also thought about just showing em the LT hit on Joe Theisman and say "You're number 12. They're number 56."

Okay.

I've looked at a lot of photos of a lot of women. And Adrianne Ho may be the most beautiful woman in the world.



That photo is just a sample. She cannot take a bad photo. It is unpossible.

Re: Towards A Virtual Williamsburg!

Previously I made a joke about it but I just realized that really -- a pretty young thing who works out at the gym took my son clothes shopping.

The tourists renting bikes in the park seem to cause more injuries than they experience themselves. I don't run there much because they weave around, I dodge them then almost get plastered by a serious bike racer. I suppose cabs won't dodge them though?

Here's a great opportunity for you, Hank -- just sorry I didn't pass it along sooner.
