That’s right folks. University of Kansas versus Horner. I was willing to fight it all the way up to the Supreme Court if I had to. That is, if any court in the entire U.S. actually recognized the power of KU’s traffic court. But I didn’t need it. Thanks to my superior debating powers, my stellar argumentative skills, my stunning good looks, and a cow tie, I received a 2-1 decision and thus saved my client $20.00.
All in a day’s work, I say. Who wants a beer? I’m buying.
Beer me!
[sub]congratulations too![/sub]
I’m always ready to join in for a toast to beating the system. Fight the power!
[sub]Actually I’m just here for the free beer[/sub]
Congrats, but note that it is generally regarded as unseemly to run around in public waiving your coupe stick and proclaiming you brilliance in an F.Lee Bailey-like manner. If approached by the press one modestly says that the system worked, that you are grateful for the attentiveness of the jurors and the wisdom of the judge, and that justice prevailed, all the while demurely averting your eyes and shoving dust around with your toe. There are conventions that must be observed.
Well of course justice prevailed. I was the prevailor! Prevailer? Prevalator? Feh.
I’m going to adopt the Johnny Cochrane outlook on press interviews. The better to nab $5,000 a pop speaking engagements.
BTW, I have loads of conventions I observe. I just fail to see what Stayman and Blackwood have anything to do with my court case.
