Thank you, Ted.

Dear Mr. Frank,
WOW O MY GOD! WILL YOU PLEASE BE MY LAWYER?
Well now, Ted, that’s certainly a statement of facts the court doesn’t see very often.
I wonder how long those plaintiff’s lawyers have wanted to submit a brief with several pages of animated sex scenes. Not something they cover in legal research and writing first year.
I bet Walter is please to see that you acknowledge being a poor drive by shooter. Also, you filed this on my birthday, a great and refreshing piece of brief writing.
Great read; great work.
