Geeklawyer is going to annoy Ruthie, yet again, by talking about her. The thing Geeklawyer hate most of all about Ruthie, and it is you may take it on trust a long long list, is that she remembers all our conversations. All of them, in detail. It’s impressive but annoying. She can quite correctly tell him that he said she should not to post on religion when he does a religious post. Dammit, busted.
Geeklawyer remembers a barrister who had a photographic memory. He would read a pile of bundles as high as himself, then trundle into court and arrange them next to him and not open a single one in the entire trial. Not one, ever. And he would say:
“My Lord on bundle X, Tab Y, at page Z in paragraph 230 on line 4 it says and I quote ‘…’ ”
He would do this repeatedly on all points, even minor ones and not just for the legs of the case. Flash bastard.
its a poison chalice: can you imagine what it is like having all of our conversations, recalled in utmost detail in my head all of the time?
I can imagine: joy and pain. Joy recalling my half of the conversation and …
i think you meant to say “lawyer bastards having photographic memory”
No I didn’t - | meant exactly what I wrote. The grammar is, however, deliberately wrong - it is American.
I seem to recall we already had the foreign language debate on the blog and banned people from commenting in languages other than English..
True, but American is very similar to English, albeit greatly simplified to meet the learning needs of various immigrants and dim rednecks.
You said that she should not post on religion. Which is quite right. Women find it hard enough to park their cars, let alone discern the fine line between heresy and orthodoxy.
eekk! I’d like to totally disassociate myself from the above remark - I have met several women capable of parking cars - and for that matter, driving without using the mirror for makeup.
