I was sued for a cool million once... for violating a employment non-compete. The bastards wouldn't PAY me a million, but the lawyers (as you pointed out) raised the stakes to make some sort of point, like why they charged so much to be on retainer. The company I went to work for, knew all about my non-compete, and said THEY had lawyers better than those bozos had, and it was on. Me? I just sat in the hot seat and sweated. Sure, I was a whore. <evil grin> But the former company treated me like a chickenhead $20 whore and the new company treated me like a $100 whore and bought me dinner after. Once. Bob Young bought me breakfast and gave me a red fedora. So, I have a tender spot for all the sell outs, like myself. After all of that, being a Pole Dancer would be honest work. Ric
