Well once again today proved to be a complete waste of time.

( Read what happened )

Once we find out what happens next I’ll keep you all updated.

 This entry has a bit of profanity here and there. I apologize if it offends anyone. There were some points that I was pretty heated. I’m sure most of you have heard about the Exdra/My FurCreations drama with Amber rarely known as “Bluewinkle” Since I’m being asked the same questions over and over about what’s going on I’m going to tell you from start to finish. This journal was typed off and on in my spare time. I had stopped since I thought there was no point in posting it but after recent events I’ve decided to go ahead and do it.

So that’s pretty much the whole story.  I tried to keep it as short as possible but as you can see that didn’t work.

About a year or so ago my friend Lunar had mentioned to me that he had gotten his fursona copyrighted. He's a very talented artist and on several occasions had had his character & images stolen. The same has happened to me a few times and so he had suggested that I should do the same. So I filled out the paperwork sent in the registration payment and waited. I had almost forgotten about it when it came in the mail yesterday. So now my fursona Tarah Marilinda Rosemoon is by law mine.

She always was of course but it's still good to know that legally it's recognized too. :) 

Just got back from a late showing of Harry potter and the Half blood prince. Over all the movie was ok, I think I like the Order of the Phoenix better. Only bonus of the film was there was more Snape then the past films have had. Though I might be biased cause I love Dumbledore and I knew what was going to happen.






They had a small trailer for New Moon too. I don't know why people keep comparing Twilight to HP. There's really no comparison. I like Twilight, I'm a sucker for the sappy stuff (though I won't admit it if you ask me) but story and character wise (Not to mention better actors.) it's HP all the way.

 So I finally get picked to be on a jury for the first time. It pretty much sucked though. I got summoned during finals and I couldn't postpone it as I had done so 3 or 4 times before and the trial itself was dull. Basically a man got rear ended and was suing the other guy. He wanted 12k to fix his car when it was only worth about 7k. It was a 2k ford mustang LT. Now what made it sad was the plaintiff (a psysics teacher from UCSD) decided to represent himself. He did so very poorly. He had NO evidence to back himself up, no documents from the hospital, no witnesses, no colleagues to speak on his behalf, nothing. The Defendant (who wasn't there because he had patients to treat) accepted full responsiblity and wanted to help the plaintiff, he just wasn't willing to pay for something that clearly wasn't worth it. 

Regardless of the admitted guilt the Plaintiff still felt that he had to prove the Doctor did it. The first day was so boring I actually fell asleep in my seat, as did the bailiff. Of all the cases I could have been on I had to get that snooze inducing crap. The good thing though was it was a short trial.
The defendant's lawyer brought in an automobile appraiser (something the plaintiff should have done) and gave an estimate for how much the car is worth plus the salvage value. During cross examination the plaintiff asked some really irrelevant questions, ie; how old the guy was and was he the best west of the Mississippi or something. :p After all that we had to sit through closing arguments. That was torture because I had to fight myself to stay awake because the plaintiff pretty much tried to recite everything he had said from the beginning. Somehow I managed. 

Finally we were able to deliberate. That part was actually fun. Our verdict was he was entitled to about 6k for the car and 1500 for medical bills and painkillers. 

I'm so glad it's over. 

There's nothing here! :D

I need something to talk about.
