Hiatus

Before entering the working world, summer meant warm days, long nights and vacation.  In honor of that tradition, OC2Seattle.com will be on summer vacation until after Labor Day.  In the meantime please pop over to Examiner.com where I dish on Seattle restaurants and food goings-on in the Seattle area.

Dumb Questions

In my work life I spend a fair amount of time sitting in conference rooms attending depositions. For those blissfully ignorant of what a deposition is – lucky you – it’s basically questioning by one or more parties’ attorneys of a potential witness to learn facts about the case and avoid surprises at trial.

Sometimes questions get asked which validate all jokes about stupid lawyers.

A new favorite with names changed for legal like reasons:

“Did Blueco enter into an agreement with Redbarn before Blueco existed?”

Update: When I told Jim about this question he suggested that the appropriate objection is “Objection: Lacks foundation, in any universe.”
