Anyway

If you’re look­ing for some­thing to cheer up a grey day, leave you shak­ing your head about some people’s beha­viour, and gen­er­ally enter­tain you, try this story about a DVD-renting outfit’s exchanges with a law­yer. So far I’ve only read a few of the sec­tions, but they’re price­less (a law­yer who cop­ies the other side on private emails to his cli­ent, makes inad­vis­able bets, and then chal­lenges the other side to a fist-fight). Much bet­ter than most TV pro­grammes, prov­ing once again the old adage about truth being stranger than fic­tion. [Update: And then I read the last post­ing in the series, and thought about that other old adage “There but for the grace of God go I”… and Boing-Boing removed the ori­ginal link.]
