Court, Deposition, Court again

Trial list this morning, but they weren’t ready for us. That means we could get called to pick a jury and get started at any moment between now and Wednesday. Luckily, I have an understanding, and patient client.

Now I’m in a deposition trying to pin down the exact location of a slip and fall accident. There’s lots of confusion and this witness isn’t helping. In this city there are lots of property lines right next to each other.

Tomorrow, if my trial doesn’t start, I go to Court in Media, Pennsylvania to meet with the Judge about a trial the will start sometime next month. I’m hoping we can settle.

Trailer for ‘The Thing’ looks great. The nightmares of Lovecraft and John Carpenter are coming back to life…

Video: ‘The Thing’ Movie Trailer

Here’s my comment from Live For Films, where I first saw the above

I always had a strong feeling about this project, as it was never weighed down with star power on either side of the camera.  Can this story succeed without McCready?  Well, we know it will be different.  But now, seeing that there is not an excess of special effects in the trailer, I am starting to feel even more confidant.  It seems more similar to the Carpenter movie and less like a prequel, but I’m OK with that.

Finally, @Sprint announces the Photon 4G for July 31. I am so there.

Good timing.  My contract is up right about the same time this phone comes out, and it’s just what I want.  Read the press release at Sprintfeed.  I was an early adopter of Android with the Hero two years ago and no the handset can hardly dial, it’s so bogged down.  I know the HTC Sense user interface is much beloved, but after two years with it, I’m really ready for a different look.  So it will be Motorola Blur for a while.  but in the meantime, bring on that dual core processor, front facing camera, 4.3 inch screen and a bunch of other goodies.  Will it be better than an iPhone 5 (or 4s)?  Probably not, but I’m committed to Android and it looks like the Photon 4G is moving right to the top of the heap.
