H. L. Mencken: Fly the Colors.
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

Go Somewhere Different. Meet Someone Different.
A wise man's country is the world.
--Aristippus (435-360 BC), as quoted by Diogenes Laertius, Lives of Eminent Philosophers
"There is hope. I see traces of men." Aristippus was shipwrecked on the island of Rhodes in the Aegean Sea. He and his fellow survivors did not know where they were or if the island was inhabited. But he sees geometric figures drawn on the sand.

It’s February 2023. Please Think On Your Own. Resist Bozo-Think.
Happy New Year. In 2023, and daily, stop apologizing for being open-minded, being outspoken, seeing all sides of an issue and being against the goofy fashion of that day. Think on your own. Get off your knees and let people know who you really are. Fight junior high mob culture. Tell the world you’re done with it. Risk something.

Never Forget. Avenge Mickey O’Neil’s Mum.

Sensitive Litigation Moment #631
Lawyering? A cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. And then there's a negative side.

Lawyering: You're not entitled to a “bad day,” Jack.
Prescient. Accurate. Inspiring. Irritating. Even upsetting. But they are not about you. Born right here in 2006, and part of Hull McGuire cosmos since the 1990s, the 12 Rules of Client Service try to align client and lawyer interests, and do a good job of that. They require discipline, persistence, attitude and a mind-set of enforcement. And big ones, frankly. Have a nice day.
