This is the best lawyer story of the year ... and probably the century.
Uncle Bill --

A Charlotte, North Carolina lawyer purchased a box of very rare and
expensive cigars, then insured them against fire among other things. Within a
month having smoked his entire stockpile of these great cigars and without
yet having made even his first premium payment on the policy, the lawyer filed
claim against the insurance company. In his claim, the lawyer stated the
cigars were lost "in a series of small fires." The insurance company refused to
pay, citing the obvious reason: that the man had consumed the cigars in the
normal fashion. The lawyer sued -- and won ! In delivering the ruling the judge
agreed with the insurance company that the claim was frivolous. The Judge
stated nevertheless, that the lawyer held a policy from the company in which it
had warranted that the cigars were! insurable and also guaranteed that it
would insure them against fire, without defining what is considered to be
unacceptable fire, and was obligated to pay the claim. Rather than endure
lengthy and costly appeal process, the insurance company accepted the
ruling and paid $15,000.00 to the lawyer for his loss of the rare cigars lost in
the "fires." NOW FOR THE BEST PART ... After the lawyer cashed the
check, the insurance company had him arrested on 24 counts of ARSON !
With his own insurance claim and testimony from the previous case being
used against him, the lawyer was convicted of intentionally burning his insured
property and was sentenced to 24 months in jail and a $24,000.00 fine.
This is a true story and was a "1st place" winner in a Criminal Lawyers
Award Contest.
PUTER MADNESS -- Did you
ever come to the computer and
after a full day of crashes or
lost files wish your computer
would communicate with you in,
let's say: in a more reasonable
fashion ? ...
And did you ever work
with someone who is
new to computers or
someone who has
worked on it for months
but still does not have
a clue as to how what
makes it work ? The
dreaded 2 a.m. phone
call when that person
you have been telling
the same thing over and
over does not get it. Do
not push any buttons on
the keyboard if you are
not sure what you are
doing.
It may not be
good. Or some thing
might happen that you
do not want to happen.
