...I am pretty sure that I posted this before...but   :)   I am going to do it again.

...I needed to depose a Nuero...the other side was claiming that the plaintiff had sustained a bad head injury in an auto accident...but the medical records didn't support it.  I called to setup the deposition, and I was told that it would be a two hour minimum...and I needed to pay $450 per hour for the first period.  I argued with the secretary, saying that, 'It won't take over an hour...there were only five visits"...She just said..."Send us the check for $900, and we will setup the appointment."

...I did...but my ATTITUDE awoke!!!!   >:(

...I was pleasant, and the depo took about 50 minutes.  I then gave him my 'mean smile', and asked Him...

..."Who do you think will win the Series?  I think that the Dodgers will win."  He stared at me, and asked...

..."WHAT THE HELL DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH THE CASE?"

...I told him, "I paid for two hours of your time, so for the next hour, we will talk about sports, movies, recipes, or anything else I can think of."

...He stood up, and walked out...

...His secretary came in, quickly, and handed me a check for $450...

...I was laughing my ass off as I drove back to the Office...

...I could REALLY be a Panther Huntress in r/t

...Performing Music... :)

...As Rags will attest...there is NOTHING in Life that compares!!!  Sex comes close...but sex is short...but performing a Symphony can take well over an hour.  Playing the piano, and the cello did get me 'excited'...I would try to bring out what the Composer was trying to say.  I wasn't a 'reserved' performer, I would sway in my seat while playing the cello, and not just sit up straight at the piano and my facial expressions would change.  Sometimes, performing on the piano, I would be leaning far forward, my face about a foot away from the keyboard...staring at my hands as they romped...telling them...in my mind..."OK, you can do this...and I FED YOU OATMEAL THIS MORNING...and I will get some FISH FOR DINNER."  I believed that part of being a performer, was to let the audience know what you were feeling...otherwise...*Shrugs*...I could just record the work...and let them hear it...as I was at the 7/11...buying a slurpee.  (Strawberry, of course... ;D)  and fish for my hands.

...I performed the second movement of the Dvorak at a concert...and people said that they had tears in their eyes when I had finished.  I also had tears in my eyes...but my body was full of energy at the end.  Several people said that they were watching my face...and they saw it get very sad and despondent...and then...COME ALIVE!!!   

...I wasn't acting...I was just letting my body do what my mind was feeling...

...I thanked my hands...and...

...Bought them a nice slice of salmon...but

...They made ME eat it!!!!

...*Sighs*

...Not much I could do to resist... ;)

...So true Brother...so true... :)

...Here is the Dvorak, 2nd Movement, performed by Jaqueline Du Pre...she died way too early in life. 

...Why does Nature take away so many of our best...while they are still young?   :'(

...My face probably looked similar to Hers, as I performed this...

...Yes, Brother...we humans just don't have the answers to questions like that.

...I have no idea of what happens to us when we pass from this life...but there seems to be so many credible tales from those who briefly died, and returned...so it seems very possible that we go on.  I am not sure how I would do as an 'Angel'...sitting on a cloud...playing a harp...and singing for all Eternity.

...I think that we humans just can't comprehend what happens to us when we die.

...Many think..."Well, it was a nice time...but I am gone."

...I kinda like the idea of resurrection...that we sit in the Cafe of Eternity, drink some coffee and eat a cinnamon roll and talk about what our life was like...and then God calls out...

..."Izee', you are going to be a South African slave this time."

...I would groan, but go to the place where  I would lay down...and my essence would be sent down into a new body.

...I would wake up as a newborn baby...but have no idea of what I was...or any memory of past lives.

...I would experience that life...

...And then wake up in the Hereafter...and go to the Coffee Shop...and tell the Barrista...

..."That was an INTERSTING ONE...please put some rum in my expresso."

I am becoming more aware of where I have been, and of where I am going. I have been, and will be again in fine company.

It holds no fear for me. I am in no hurry, as time has its own way about things, but when the time comes it comes. I welcome it and what lies ahead of me.

Nothing lives on forever. All things come and go. It is what we make of our time and what we leave behind that matters.

When your time comes, go as you have lived. Go boldly, or fall like a sheep. The choice is yours. But it will be echoed on. Remember that.

I came into this world kicking, screaming, covered in someone else's blood. I have no problem going the same way. I surely do not wish to just sleep peacefully away. That is not my way. I will battle right up to the end.

Odin grant me strength...
Thor guide me...
When my end comes, Freyja lift me up and heal my heart and make me happy once again. Show me life renewed so I may be joyful until Ragnarok if that be the will of the Gods.

My life belongs to the Gods. I am simply borrowing it for a time.

As a Christian, I follow the Biblical view of what happens when we die. But over all, yes we do go on beyond this life.

...Jury Duty...

...I just got a Notice to report on 12/10...in RICHMOND!!!  That is a difficult drive from where I live...plus...

...There is NO WAY THAT I WOULD EVER BE ACCEPTED BY BOTH SIDES!!!   I have a lot of letters after my name...and was a Trial Attorney for 30 years.  I NEVER let an attorney stay in a Jury when I was selecting the Jury...you just can't TRUST what they are going to do!!!   ::)  They make up their minds, early, and don't listen to the evidence.  Plus, during deliberations, other Jurors will listen to them, as they explain the case THE WAY THEY HEARD IT!!! 

...I am trying to figure out how I will dress when I appear...

...I could be VERY elegant...and glare at everyone...and scare them off...one side would dismiss me...

...Or, I could dress very sloppy, my hair in a mess...lipstick crooked over my mouth...

...and the Judge would tell me to go home.   ::)

...I DO have my 'Sane Look'...I will probably do that, and watch what happens. It will be more fun than sitting at home, and taking a walk in the back yard every three hours.  and...maybe...since I am not working...

...I WILL GET ON A JURY!!!!
