Tortle Power

In honor of my torts final. A lame joke about a childhood favorite

Half man, Half chicken (all awesome)

"The chicken butt remark was plainly a derogatory figure of speech intended to convey Vinnie's subjective belief, stated in a non-serious manner, that plaintiff was afraid to appear on defendants' radio program for fear of being ridiculed; the term could not have meant for the listener to take literally because its literal interpretation is nonsensical when applied to a human being." Seelig v. Infinity Broadcasting

Oh really Judge Simons. What do you have to say about this!?! You've just been lawyered.

Bosom of Time

"... still the consequences of such past negligence were in the boson of time, as yet unrevealed."
 Marshall v. Nugent

Inimitable Glow

"Her duties and responsibilities in respect of the family unit complement those of the husband, extending only to another sphere. In the good times she lights the hearth with her own inimitable glow". - Montgomery v. Stephan.

When asked by Professor Pruitt, my Tort's professor, if I exuded an inimitable glow, I had to be honest and reply, "Yeah, sometimes." Upon appeal, this opinion is affirmed.
