I battle evil. But I don't really win. The bad keeps coming back and getting stronger. Like that kid in the story, the boy that stuck his finger in the duck.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I love the term "false imprisonment" which surely implies some sort of legitimate imprisonment he could have been doing instead.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I have 2 trips I need to take in 2009. One in April, one in June. It's too early to find good rates for either one, and yet, that is what I want to do today. grr

I guess I'll go get lunch instead. I want ice cream and cupcakes, but I think it is too cold to walk to the ice cream that I really want. Maybe not with the concourse - ok I'm off to check.

It's never too cold for an ice cream!

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Also, my dad asks: When and why the "so help me God" part was added to the outh of the office? Wikipedia doesn't help.

I was just thinking that. I suppose it's really unauthorized imprisonment, rather than false, to distinguish it from what the police do. But really: did he tell the guy the door was locked and it turned out it really wasn't?

Wikipedia does say it's not in the Constitution and it might have been George Washington who added it.
