@ProfRobAnderson I can’t speak to that paint in particular but it is common for larger timberland owners to mark land boundaries with paint on trees.

@RichardHanania @adamscochran I would submit that using the words “conservatives” and “Republications” interchangeably is no longer accurate. The Republican Party is now more populists and many who espouse conservative principles may not have a home.

@BowTiedBroke I’ve seen Tennessee, bears & chainsaws, but never all at the same time.

@moseskagan @CarolWalshReal1 In Austin I was overseeing extensive building renovations on behalf of the board of trustees for a non-profit where I served. At the same time, one department ordered above-ground electrical service while another mandated buried electrical service. City-owned utility.

@FreightAlley I have a financial letter similar to this that I update annually. Also, my thought is that if my wife & I were both to die (plane wreck, car accident, etc.) then the letter could be used by our adult children as a road map to identify & locate our assets, life insurance, etc.

@SMB_Attorney As a former public company GC, my view was that we were hiring the lawyer, not the firm (with a few exceptions). If the lawyer is gone that opens the door for other options, especially for more critical work requiring special expertise, experience or judgment.

@GrammarTable With all due respect to @richmintz, I much prefer “received” over “gotten.”

@kherman As someone else said, a case can be filed about most anything. Disposition could be fast if courts at all levels conclude they don’t have a role and slower if they don’t.

@kherman As someone else said, a case can be filed about most anything & a dismissal would likely be appealed. It is hard to know how long it would take to get to a final decision. It could be fast if the courts all conclude they don’t have a role or longer if they don’t.

@MultifamilyMad $535, I think. Long time ago in a town with 30K population.

@ArtemTepler Former General Counsel of a Texas-based national developer here. Can be done either way. If you do it under the arch you may be able to negotiate the markup. Approach depends on personal preference and quality of your local management overseeing project.

@ChandlerReedSMB If the deal touches agriculture in any way (including retail) then the ag banks can also be a great source of competitive financing. For example, Capital Farm Credit @CapitalFarmCred but there are a number of others depending on geography.

@KSVesq Let me also suggest that if the candidate actually gets hired by one of those 1300 firms through his own efforts or another recruiter, the “resume blasting” recruiter may claim payment due for first bringing attention to the candidate. I had a case like this (non-legal job).

@DavidLimbaugh Speaking of Goldfinger, I recently learned that Amazon Prime Video now has all or nearly all 007 movies in its Free for Prime catalog. Recently rewatched a couple.

@J_Dot_J I made it onto a panel in a criminal case a couple years out of law school. We broke for lunch & opening arguments were supposed to start upon our return. The defendant jumped bail during lunch & could not be located so we were dismissed shortly after we returned.

@cress_cd If the new lawyer will be receiving assignments from multiple people there will inevitably be times when priorities need to be sorted out. Advise the new lawyer to let you know promptly when this happens so you can assist.
