The Dude With the Mower
Being the recipient of an ego-boosting compliment was not something I anticipated when I took my mower to the hardware store to get the blade sharpened. That's just not the kind of place you tend to get compliments of any kind. Sure, if you're feeling blue you can always buck yourself up by making a trip to the hardware store to check out the power tools and the paint brushes and the herbicides and whatnot, and if you're really, really down in the dumps you will probably want to spend at least 20 minutes rifling through the screws and washers. The smaller the item, the more it feels like a friend.
Trust me, there's not a man in America who hasn't, at some point, picked up a 3/16ths drill bit and said, "How's my little buddy?"
I think I didn't realize until afterward -- after the event I'm about to relate -- when finished with the preparatory material -- how psychically ready I had been for some kind of verbal chuck under the chin. Did I have a spiritual hole into which a compliment, if dropped, would flourish? More like a crater. That canyon on Mars. But the odds of anything like that happening seemed remote. I was just trying to get a mower blade sharpened! The mower didn't mean much to me, other than as an object of mild resentment. I used to have a gas mower that, while nasty and loud, left no doubt of its agenda. It was violent. It was a satisfying machine for whacking the fescue. But it had to be put to sleep earlier this year. That left me with my relatively new backup mower, an electric number given to me by a friend. It is a mild, modest device. As I've noted here before, it's like something a lady would use to shave her legs.
And it was literally dull in every way. Hence the trip to the hardware store.
So I'm waiting around. I can hear the blade being sharpened in the back of the shop. A grating sound, a high frequency industrial whine. Then the guy comes out of the back of the shop, and he's pushing my mower, and he tells me there was a lot of grass jammed underneath, and that the blade had certainly been dull, and then -- out of the blue -- he says, "That's a nice mower."
"Really?" I said.
"Yeah," he said. "That's a nice mower. They don't make those anymore."
And then another guy agrees with him. A nice mower, and you can't find that model anymore.
I'm like: Yo.
I got me a hot mower!
This is like a new identity. I'd needed one. Now I'll be that guy: The dude with the mower.
Mr. Mower Man.
With this new identity comes the responsibility to share the magic. I'm going to have to spend more time letting the people out there, the citizenry, check out my mower. I'll have to take it for a stroll down the sidewalk, maybe through the business district. Strut my stuff. People might wonder why this man is pushing a mower through a pedestrian mall, or the food court at Tyson's, or whatever, but mostly what they will ask themselves is, "How can I get a mower like him?"
The important thing is to avoid the temptation to gloat. If people think you think that they're envying you for your cool mower, they'll get resentful. So you have to pretend you don't notice that they're covetous. Basically you have to left your cool mower speak for itself. Which means sometimes, right there on the sidewalk, turning it on, so everyone can hear that lovely hum.
$70M Suit Against Cadwalader Reflects Risks of Practice in Mortgage-Backed Securities
As the global slowdown in the market for mortgage-backed securities threatens a core practice area of Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft, the New York law firm is also wrestling with a $70 million legal malpractice suit brought by a major issuer of such securities. Cadwalader is one of the nation's top law firms when it comes to securitizations, and its large practice in the area has helped catapult the firm to the top of the profitability charts over the past few years.
Linklaters' London Partner to Head U.S. Practice
Linklaters has shuffled its U.S. management, with global finance and projects chief John Tucker relocating from London to New York, as the firm looks to underline its commitment to the United States. The news follows a period of U.S. investment by Linklaters, which now has 130 lawyers in New York, including about 30 partners.
Supreme Court to Examine Lethal Injection, Voter Identification
The Supreme Court on Tuesday set the stage for a full-scale examination of whether execution by lethal injection violates the Eighth Amendment's bar against "cruel and unusual" punishment. The Court's grant of review could trigger a moratorium in lethal-injection executions nationwide until the ruling. The justices also announced they will referee a sharply partisan dispute over an Indiana law that requires prospective voters to present government-issued photo identification at the polling place.
'Take-Home' Asbestos Suits Go After Employers, Get Mixed Results
In a new breed of "take-home" asbestos lawsuits, plaintiffs are suing employers over secondhand exposure to chemicals brought into the home on clothing -- so far with mixed results. But James Nowak, who is currently representing companies in a number of suits involving take-home asbestos, believes that the courts "are leaning toward the plaintiffs bar." Nowak thinks that these suits are on the rise because few asbestos manufacturers and suppliers remain, so plaintiffs are focusing on employers.
Efforts to Protect Privilege Falling Short
The Department of Justice's latest effort to deal with complaints about prosecutors inappropriately seeking waivers of attorney-client privilege in corporate probes often falls short of providing protection, according to a report to a Senate committee by former Delaware Chief Justice E. Norman Veasey, a partner at Weil, Gotshal & Manges. At the request of the Coalition to Protect the Attorney-Client Privilege, Veasey acted as a "neutral narrator" of experiences by defense counsel with the McNulty Memo.
Law Firms Massing to Help War Vets
Wilmer Cutler attorney John Harwood, who was a Marine Corps platoon leader in the Vietnam War, and Nicholas Henry, a third-year law student and an Iraq veteran, don't know each other, but they have a common mission: providing legal services to wounded veterans. They're not alone. Law firms, corporate legal departments and law schools are setting out to help thousands of disabled soldiers returning from Iraq and Afghanistan receive fair and timely benefits from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.
4th Circuit's 5-5 Split May Impact Hot-Button Cases
The 4th Circuit is under the microscope as senators, legal experts, and conservative and liberal groups watch to see if five vacant judgeships will trigger an ideological shift in one of the nation's most conservative federal appellate benches. An even split, coupled with President Bush's inability to get his nominees confirmed by the Senate, could shift the court toward the left and affect decisions in a key terrorism case, death penalty appeals, immigration issues and labor disputes.
Disciplinary Board: Lawyers' Cocaine Offenses Warrant 'Suspended' Suspension
New Jersey's Disciplinary Review Board is sticking to the view that a suspended three-month suspension is the correct punishment for lawyers who are rehabilitated after being caught with cocaine-type drugs. The board recommended such punishments Monday for a Newark lawyer arrested for possession of cocaine and a Miami lawyer, admitted in New Jersey, who was caught with Ecstasy.
Authorities Investigate Possible Internet Threat Against Judge in Spector Trial
Authorities on Tuesday investigated an Internet posting that seemed to threaten the judge in Phil Spector's murder trial, as jurors continued to deliberate whether the music producer killed actress Lana Clarkson. The posting was on a MySpace page described as "Team Spector," said Steve Whitmore of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department. Whitmore would not comment on the wording, but a court spokesman said the posting, which has since been removed, included the phrase "The Evil Judge should DIE!!!!"
Mukasey's Allies Rally Around Him in Wake of Marshals' Complaints
A federal complaint against two federal judges -- one of whom could be the next attorney general -- describes U.S. marshals being ordered to empty the trash, carry groceries and tote golf clubs as part of their duties on protective security details. Allies of AG nominee Michael B. Mukasey have been quick to rally around the retired New York jurist. Nonetheless, Mukasey's security detail was shut down in 2005 shortly after deputy marshals filed the grievance against him, another judge and their wives.
Johnson & Johnson Trust Dispute Turns on the Meaning of 'Spouse'
For Broadway producer Martin Richards, how New Jersey's high court defines "spouse" will determine whether he gets a bigger slice of the fortune left by John Seward Johnson Sr., the son of the founder of Johnson & Johnson. On Tuesday, the court was asked to determine Johnson's mind-set in 1961 when he drafted a trust for four children, 11 grandchildren and their spouses. At issue is whether Richards, who married Johnson's daughter Mary Lea, can be considered a spouse even though Mary died in 1990.
Ga. High Court Rules for County on Nichols Fee Issue
Georgia's highest court dropped one answer on Monday into the morass of questions surrounding who will pay for the defense of accused Fulton County Courthouse shooter Brian G. Nichols. The justices unanimously reversed an order that the county must pay some defense costs, in particular the costs of transcribing jailhouse telephone conversations and of digitizing evidence for presentation in the courtroom. But the high court's decision likely doesn't answer the biggest funding questions in the case.
