Are you familiar with Dennis Kucinich?

For some reason, I figured Big Boy preferred submissions in milkshake and cheeseburger form.

Whatever it is, I have a feeling it's not this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FN_P90

Actually, attorneys are supposed to do what their clients want (for the "big picture" things), not what is necessarily in the clients "best interest." The only time we care about anyone's best interest is typically when children are involved, and they will typically get a special advocate appointed.

A real good attorney can convince their client that what the client thinks is the right thing to do is not, and in that way persuade them to do something that is in their best interest as opposed to what they really want to do, but at the end of the day, all of the big decisions are made by the client, and it's up to the attorney to make it happen. (Client decides the what, attorney decides the how).

If this guy's goal was to be a political statement, then maybe his attorney did the right thing. I would hope he tried to talk him out of it first and explain to him that working a reasonable settlement would be better for him in the long run financially, otherwise he did his client a disservice.

sell your debt to a junk debt buyer. This entity buys your debt for pennies on the dollar and then attempts to collect 200-400% of the original amount owed. They keep 100% of what they collect. The people from whom you actually borrowed the money don't see a dime.

You left out that the junk debt collectors will continue to call the phone number that you abandoned 5 years ago no matter how many times the new owner of that number explains to them they don't know who the hell Monica is. Or, when you finally get them to stop calling, they sell the account to someone else, and it starts all over again.

I don't recommend refusing. Your refusal to take the test can be used against you in court. (South Dakota v. Neville, if you don't believe me). Also, if it's not your first offense, many states have stiffer penalties for refusing.

Instead, if you know you're not under the influence, offer your blood if you don't trust the breath machine. Two advantages. A more accurate test, and, can be preserved for independent testing down the road.

Death penalty has been abolished for minors since 2005.

It actually doesn't stop anything. It's a non-binding resolution. It has as much weight as when the U.S. Congress passes a resolution declaring it Bob Smith Got a Hang Nail Today Day.

Trying to post anonymously on the Internet is like sending an anonymous letter with a return address label on it.

Cold Fusion is real

I believe the proper trademark is "ColdFusion," but we know what you mean.

Actually "why" can mean "how" in some instances. You simply have assumed that the OP meant "for what purpose" when he said "why." For example, "Why did you hit me?"

He could have just as easily meant "what is the cause?" For example, "Why is the sky blue?"

Each is a valid use of the word "why."

Why do women have babies?

I know this is Slashdot and all, so we shouldn't assume you are familiar with the process, but maybe it's time you sat down and had a talk with mom and dad about where babies come from.

Typically, in the U.S at least, discovery requests must be reasonably calculated so as to result in the discovery of evidence relevant to the issues in the case. So, if you have good reason to believe that the person's e-mail, voice mail, etc. might contain something relevant to the lawsuit, you are entitled to it.

"The public has the right to every man's evidence." - Many sources, no idea which is the original.

Eh, I still call it tape-recording shows instead of "DVR"ing or whatever would be more appropriate.
