He has been a great story, they have done a great job with him but the rule is in place because they dont want old horses to be abused. What is so wrong with that?

A) As a rule, there's nothing wrong with the rule, or with having rules...as a rule. Since I spend most of my time representing people who break the rules, I have a sincere appreciation for rules.

B) Agree that it's probably a rare situation and just won't come up that often, so there's not a real pressing need for reform here (better to spend time reforming, say, the claiming rules).

C) Knew this would get you going. You're indefatigable. Ever consider becoming a lawyer?

DARDEN!!!




I knew you sounded familiar.

Don't have PeanutShell try the gloves on.

Don't ever do that one again now that I think of it.




Now that you're on the other side though.....how many simple assault charges have you plea bargained into life without the possibilty of parole??

[Mortimer]

Oh....I'm sorry I called you PeanutShell... Mr. Shell.

It won't happen again.






I mean...gee...I wouldn't want you to hire Darden and sue me for character assasination.


I'd probably get awarded about 75 large or so and it just wouldn't be right.

Stop talking about Darden... makes me think of Darden Restaurants and I'm starving. I could go for some Bahama Breeze food right now!

I wish... I'm stuck here. It sucks.

Have you ever been there, Morte'? For a chain restaurant, they have excellent food and a great atmosphere.

If I was a lawyer there are three blind mice which would be getting served papers this week. I'm not so sure what I would sue them for but I'd find something. Is public stupidity against the law?

Public stupidity against the law? It's more like a God-Given American right. Why I remember the time when I...

Hey, wait a second...

Okay, I think I'll shut up now (in legalese, that's called exercising the right to silence).

if people could be sued for stupidity, not many would have any money left.
