She has destroyed her face. So, "wrong" in every sense of the word.



I think she's hideous.



If you think this is how she looks, think back to the two photos above:

So, you're saying that black men shouldn't let themselves be seen in photos with her?

It was the first time insurance coverage litigation sounded even remotely interesting.

I am likely being too earnest, but some types of insurance coverage practices are the closest thing to working for an appellate court vis-à-vis the incredible variety of cases. Anything can be insured, and thus potentially damaged or lost. So, for example, first-party property claims can run the gamut from business income loss to every shop in a mall arising out of a fire (the Santana row fire) to determining the value of 190,000 breast cancer tumor samples dating back to the 1970s destroyed during Tropical Storm Allison which hovered over Houston for 14 hours. Both cases I worked on. Compare and contrast to listening NIMBYs every week.

As opposed to handling the same case over and over . . . despite being paid like an NFL QB.

I had cause to reference that issue earlier this week when someone came to me wondering what sort of consents we need to sell stool samples. My practice, too, has interesting crap to deal with.

Agreed. First party property claims are about 60% of my work. Some are indeed boring, but having done many different types of litigation, I find most of the insurance cases pretty interesting - none of them are cookie cutter. The big brokers (and sometimes policyholders) often hire BIGLAW and I'm always amused at how terrible most of the BIGLAW lawyers are at taking depositions.

If you think that's interesting, wait until they've been in the biz a few years and then call up one of the tax guys and ask them a question about the lifo layers on the stool inventory. You're talking a real hootenanny
