the navy
"Even though the sailor had become drunk while on liberty and far off base, we noted that drinking on leave was so common a part of naval life that the sailor's drunken return to ship could fairly be deemed to be characteristic of the military enterprise and, hence, that the government should be held liable for the damage that he caused." - Calabresi

lessons from the law
what i learned from westlaw today:
1. rosa parks sued outkast for misappropriation of name
2. as a judge for a U.S. Court of Appeals you can get away with writing your opinion as a parody of the Book of Genesis. Zim v. W. Pub. Co., 573 F.2d 1318 (5th Cir. 1978).
3. your husband WILL throw you under the bus at trial if you only wear your assless pants to biker rallies, and not around the house. Cheatam v. Paisano Pubs., Inc., 891 F. Supp. 381 (W.D. Ky. 1995).
