Finally heading home from a great trip and loved all of our stops (especially all of the small towns way south in the heel of the boot) but I think Rome is my favorite.
-
in puglia now and had the absolute best pizza we've ever had at a place called borgo egnazia close to fasano. we've also really enjoyed the little towns in the area. Ostuni and Lecce have been two of our favorites.

That's a big baller hotel. Well done. The bar across the street on the lake is lovely.
We were there last week. Great place. Kids loved going back and forth from pool to lake. Fun little town to walk around. High dive into the lake blew kids’ minds. -
So uh, the Italian government is freaking out right now. Hope that isn't a long term issue.
What’s going on? I’m over here now and haven’t noticed anything different. Hopefully stays that way til we head back to Rome and fly out next week. -
We did Austin to dc to Frankfurt to Milan then driver to como driver to ballagio driver to Venice train to Rome rented a car and got to puglia 3 days ago. Me wife and 2 kids. Lufthansa lost all of our luggage. Wife and kids got theirs in Venice but they fucking sent mine to the wrong place. It got to Venice the day after we left. I’m still waiting for it in puglia. I’m big and fat and have had hell finding any clothes that fit. Great trip but sucks dick not having any of my shit. I fucking hate Lufthansa and their baggage delivery company more.

I'm sure it's been covered but a couple of quick questions for anyone that can help. We're talking about trying to go to the Sunday night game if everything goes our way. We haven't made any plans but are fine with driving. What are the chances of getting tickets and a place to stay? What is the best way to get tickets?

Somehow just leaving it up to gut instinct of the sales guy doesn’t seem super effective.
Yes I was thinking that while writing the above. What a mess. It’s all broken. -
We’ve been moving quite a bit of DD stuff. PDW’s are still tough to get.
Very few under 21 people coming in for guns as some might expect.
We do a lot of high dollar sales so our clientele is different and we’ll known. I did have a younger kid in this week that didn’t seem right so he got a big nope from me on purchasing anything.
Does your store have any procedure that provides notice to the other employees in case he comes back in when you’re not there? What about any reporting to authorities in those types of cases? Seems like if you felt something was off enough to deny a sale it would merit telling others.-

Watts is going to team up with the CT plaintiffs' lawyers from Sandy Hook that got that big settlement from Remington and go after the manufacturer. The Sandy Hook plaintiffs focused on CT state law (sounds kind of like DTPA) to circumvent the federal statutes that shield gun manufacturers from liability. They're going to focus on the manufacturer's targeting of children in their marketing (apparently Daniel Defense has ads for their guns in call of duty and this asshole was really into that).
Long story short -- Watts and the CT lawyers know what they're doing and are going to fuck up Daniel Defense. Issue (of course) will likely be Daniel Defense doesn't have Remington level assets (I'd guess -- I don't know shit about that world so maybe I'm wrong).

Have the covid and have been quarantined so I’ve watched a lot of this the last few days. I watch a lot of pga but not much college golf at all. I’ve been surprised at how bad the putting is compared to the tour. I know that’s a huge gap but I feel like I’ve seen maybe 2 or 3 made over 15 foot and a ton of missed 4 to 8 footers. Probably more missed 4 to 5 putts than made. That said their tee to green games are really good. They all seem very consistent off the tee and on approach.
Great to see Texas win and do so well in so many sports. -
His defamation case in TX was remanded to state court with a green light to move forward last Friday and the one in CT should be remanded by the end of the week.

Hoping the doc dedicates a few minutes to him beating Robin Ventura’s ass. My favorite fight in sports history.
They have a whole segment on that part-

I saw it a month or so ago at a screening they had here in Austin and loved it. Brought back a lot of memories. There are a ton of great interviews with old players. Dave Winfield, George Brett, a bunch of old astros. Nolan’s my all time favorite.

I was a corporate bankruptcy lawyer before I was an asbestos plaintiffs' lawyer. It's how I came to this crossroads. I am intimately familiar with the culture of both camps and there is a vast chasm between them which is my pet theory as to why it's so difficult to get bankruptcy judges to understand our plaintiff/creditor issues. We are not dealing with Jim Bob's trailer home lien, we are dealing with complex issues of what a life is worth and what portion of their demise the Debtor is accountable for. It makes their heads spin.
I have carved out a niche representing injured plaintiffs in (typically large energy related) bankruptcies and it's rewarding but often frustrating work. We've had good luck protecting our clients' claims from the traps in the big reorg plans debtors are filing but it takes a ton of back and forth with biglaw br sections to reach an agreement (and, often times, just when you think you have a deal the carrier or PI club's lawyer will throw a wrench in the process with some crazy redline that guts the protection you've worked so hard to craft) but for the reasons discussed above it is risky to take it to the mat in br court. Throw in a springing maritime lien and you get a lot of funny looks from the adverse parties and the Court.

I drove by this morning on the way in to the office and it's bad -- most of roof and a few exterior walls completely collapsed.

For the lawyers who have made the switch or know folks who have made the switch (from partner at a firm to in-house), is there a practice area that dominates? I'm not talking industry specific stuff, more commercial litigators vs. transactional lawyers. Transactional might seem like the most obvious candidates at first glance but I'd think a seasoned commercial litigator can add value from the risk assessment perspective (most have seen a ton of deals go sideways for a variety of reasons) and also have enough experience to issue spot and hire and coordinate with transactional lawyers to get deal docs drafted.

Any suggestions for a shop in Austin that will (1) service a late 90's era submariner (it runs when you pick it up and start moving it but the dial won't turn the hands to set it) and (2) replace the face (i guess that's the crystal?) on a vintage (60s i think) Air-King (cracked when it got dropped on a hard floor). thank you
