My wife just called me in tears. She has decided it is time for me to find a new job.

She would have no problem convincing a jury of guilt.

I was taken aback to hear him say that and thought "Hunh?" And then she channeled all of us in real time.

I know this is superficial as hell, but I’m kind of loving that House Manager,
@StaceyPlaskett, showed-up wearing a cape to defend our democracy.

I know we’re supposed to be above fashion here, but I’m struck by how carefully thought out her look is. The combination of that blue and the cape-like cut of her dress subtly suggest some kind of a patriotic super hero.

29. You can't comment on her fashion without mentioning her pearls

Those pearls were not just an afterthought, but rather, they scream solidarity with free-thinking women. At least, they do to me.

Anybody have an old cod you could loan me?
Will accept tuna, if stinky enough and still mostly intact.

One of the things that really impressed me was her command of her evidence and exhibits. That's often very difficult to manage, but she had so much knowledge and control of every bit of evidence she was presenting and how it tied in with her argument.

I think any trial attorney on this board would agree that her prep and presentation were impeccable.

30. One who I am very glad is on the prosecution side.

Is it just me, or does the quality of representation drop off somewhat as you cross the aisle, so to speak? It seems that the prosecution side is a better and more prepared group of attorneys than the strip mall lawyers the defence has chosen to try to stop them.
