That looks suspiciously like a site dedicated to Weblogging about other people's Weblogs. But I must be imagining it. Such a thing couldn't possibly exist. I'd have to destroy the whole bloody civilization if we'd gone that far.

So, how you holdin' up? I hope your "fame" does not extend to your neighborhood....nothing like a bunch of "holier than thou" stares wherever you go.

It says your LJ has been deleted. Did you do that, Shik, or did the LJ folks do it due to server overload or something?

Hey, Shik... you sure you'd have wanted counsel? :]
(Recently reported in the Maryland Bar Association Lawyers Journal, the following are 22 questions actually asked of witnesses by attorneys during trials and, in certain cases, the responses given by insightful witnesses:)
"Now doctor, isn't it true that when a person dies in his sleep, he doesn't know about it until the next morning?"
"The youngest son, the twenty-year old, how old is he?"
"Were you present when your picture was taken?"
"Were you alone or by yourself?"
"Was it you or your younger brother who was killed in the war?"
"Did he kill you?"
"How far apart were the vehicles at the time of the collision?"
"You were there until the time you left, is that true?"
"How many times have you committed suicide?"
Q: So the date of conception (of the baby) was August 8th? A: Yes. Q: And what were you doing at that time?
Q: She had three children, right? A: Yes. Q: How many were boys? A: None. Q: Were there any girls?
Q: You say the stairs went down to the basement? A: Yes. Q: And these stairs, did they go up also?
Q: Mr. Slatery, you went on a rather elaborate honeymoon, didn't you? A: I went to Europe, Sir. Q: And you took your new wife?
Q: How was your first marriage terminated? A: By death. Q: And by whose death was it terminated?
Q: Can you describe the individual? A: He was about medium height and had a beard. Q: Was this a male, or a female?
Q: Is your appearance here this morning pursuant to a deposition notice which I sent to your attorney? A: No, this is how I dress when I go to work.
Q: Doctor, how many autopsies have you performed on dead people? A: All my autopsies are performed on dead people.
Q: All your responses must be oral, OK? What school did you go to? A: Oral.
Q: Do you recall the time that you examined the body? A: The autopsy started around 8:30 p.m.. Q: And Mr. Dennington was dead at the time? A: No, he was sitting on the table wondering why I was doing an autopsy.
Q: You were not shot in the fracas? A: No, I was shot midway between the fracas and the navel.
Q: Are you qualified to give a urine sample? A: I have been since early childhood.
Q: Doctor, before you performed the autopsy, did you check for a pulse? A: No. Q: Did you check for blood pressure? A: No. Q: Did you check for breathing? A: No. Q: So, then it is possible that the patient was alive when you began the autopsy? A: No. Q: How can you be so sure, Doctor? A: Because his brain was sitting on my desk in a jar. Q: But could the patient have still been alive nevertheless? A: It is possible that he could have been alive and practicing law somewhere.

Assuming those are real in the first place, many of them sound like they could have been rhetorical questions intended to make a point, rather than garner an answer.

It's that time again, folks.
Tomorrow is my sentencing. 0930, Baltimore County Circuit Court, Towson, MD. In front of the Rt. Hon. Judge John Grason Turnbull II--the head judge for the circuit.
I've left instructions for a post to be made here in my name on the off chance I should be given a prison term & immediately remanded to custody. So fear not, little buckaroos--you'll know what the skinny is.
In the meantime, I've completed a massive move-out from my apartment into a storage unit (took 34 hours & another 5 to clean; read about on the LJ) & am now temporarily homeless. But it's all good. I've got purpose now.
Rock on, y'all.

Okay, I'm a bit worried that there hasn't been an update yet. I hope everything went as best it could, Shik.
