My Thoughts: when the mood strikes.

         The war, albeit trial, is over.  There was no verdict against either principal defendant; however, there was a verdict against their company and for our client in the amount of $487,034.  However, we weren't exactly pleased with the verdict because the trial was over a contract to build an 87' yacht, hull #34 --- as we wondered how the jurors came up with the figure, we saw their mockery in the numbers.  Shame on them.  It bothered me as I wondered and pondered the verdict all evening --- wanting to talk about it... without wanting to disturb my boss at the same time.  It really is quite disturbing.

         All I can say is:  We reap what we sow.  Put in modern terms:  What goes around, comes around.  Yet the mockery lingers in my mind -- an intentional misdeed by six members of the society we share.  My boss had misgivings about the foreperson from the start and would have stricken him from the jury pool had it not been for our clients wanting him.  He was the definite leader of the pack --- yet the pack was willing to follow him into this mockery.  It's just hard to comprehend.  But that is how "evil" is --- twisted beyond belief.

         It's 10:35am and my yoga class starts at 11:30am...  So, bon voyage!
