Some Useful Tech Tips: Document Assembly and Tasks

...ernote. I have an Evernote e-mail address, so I forward or or “copy to” my personal e-mails to Evernote. It goes into my default e-mail folder as a note.

Keeping Our Perspective: 2021, A Reading Life

...ker, a “Christian Athlete”, invited us all to the alter to be “saved” by a personal (supernatural) Jesus. It isn’t that I don’t believe in God, but unless you have thought about this long, and hard, and critically, it is unlikely I believe in your God. My thinking has come into focus by reading and listening to several sources. They are: One of the “Great Courses” published by the “The Teaching Company”, which I just began: “History of the Ancient...

...ubjects. Two people can pool their resources and acquire vehicles, houses, personal property, and even cash, but when things get nasty, and they part ways, they either have to figure it out for themselves or seek help in Magistrate Court or Circuit Court. Most people can’t afford a lawyer for these cases, and usually, the person the property is titled to gets that property. So, there’s one argument for marriage! The issue of prenuptial agreements...

Copernic Desktop Pro

...was a competitor to Google. It is not. It is a search engine for your own personal computer including, if you can figure it out, your external hard drive. I have had perhaps 15 external hard drives in my life and still have them sitting on a shelf or in a box. But, each time I retired one, I added it as a folder onto my 5 TB external drive, and I then copy those files to a backup 5 TB external drive. I am a little bit paranoid about losing stuff....

I Wonder What’s Gone Wrong? Newtown Connecticut

...at they hear, and fail to provide a steady commentary to children on their personal values. Maybe their values are wanting. u. Institutions like Boy Scouts, Girls Scouts, and 4-H were a powerful compliment to school (curricular and extra-curricular) home, and church in the 50’s and 60’s. v.

The Tension Between Lawyers and Judges

...lient. 11. Even the judges who know me well do not seem to realize that my personal standard of fairness is higher than any ethical “standard” the State Bar can impose on me. I will not lie to an unrepresented opponent. I will work hard to understand their complaints against my client. I will do what I can to get my client to avoid control and emotional abuse. I keep the children in mind constantly. If I cannot represent the client in good faith,...

What Kind of Giver Are You? Or Are You a Taker?

...to be MBA graduate from Wake Forest University. Laura and I have different personalities, but some very similar reading paths. She once read The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich at my suggestion, and I waited eagerly for her to “hand down” her Harry Potter hardbacks as she finished them. I was touched when she sent me “Give and Take – Why Helping Others Drives Our Success” by Adam Grant. Laura has been working under intense pressure for over three...

...ame a client: 1. Next time, just fill out the damn forms! 2. If you have a personal referral to a lawyer with a reputation for honestly, integrity, and competence, (and aggressiveness) do not act like you are at “Joe’s Used Cars”. Treat him, his staff, and procedures respectfully. 3. Answer the questions he/she propounds. 4. Ask lots of polite questions. 5. Do what the lawyer says! Instead of me, you will now find someone you can bend to your will...

...client, covering up for his clients mistakes, and reflecting her client’s personality, even if it is an abusive one. Life is too short, and the lives of the children too precious for an attorney wasting time acting that way. For a few minutes today, while we where changing our e-mail set-up, a colleague used to e-mailing docs had to resort to the “old fashioned” method of a fax; clearly, a step backward, but don’t throw away your fax machine, yet...
