Default Memo to God: Get a lawyer

I swear I'm not making this up:

"State lawmaker Ernie Chambers filed a lawsuit Friday against the Almighty -- acknowledging he/she goes by numerous aliases -- for causing "fearsome floods, egregious earthquakes, horrendous hurricanes, terrifying tornadoes, pestilential plagues" and other alliterative catastrophes."

Further details here.

you realize of course that based on the premise of subjective reality, one of those aliases is 'ernie chambers'!

I saw this too and as a former Nebraska resident it made me smile. Ernie Chambers is really something else. He'd be eccentric any where, but in the land of make-nice, he's out of this world..........

Now I can start with the lawyer jokes! Since God is master of all that is he would be the deepest of pockets for a lawyer to sue. How many legal firms would be willing to bring a class action suit against the almighty? A judgment might be difficult to enforce though.

Nope, no interest nor practice nor therefore talent
in 8-wheeling.

Now, Iceskating BACKwards...
what I would give for these skill-sets:
(instead a 1-hand assist on Jump-landings right now), I'd be OFF to the races...

um, I would Respectfully ask that you do NOT.
(since
the Hollyweird renditions
1) not represent the Skating-world reality relative to time, &
2) that movie particularly was tragic, even in the end.)

My own iceskating is beyond precious to me.

For the past 2 months since emergency hospitalization,
mostly it's my Skating-dreams keeping me going...so
I ask you use full Compassionate & Encouraging... powers, returning me to the ice...ASAP. Thank you!

Cool. Reminded me of the unforgettable HitchHiker's Guide.
