In Russia, Jackass is for little kids. Real Russians do real dangerous tricks!

dammit, i'm bummed out, had my day in court, kinda went well, but still i'm just sitting around waiting for that verdict..
It's a process, but damned it's slow. Each step on average takes 1.5 months

Send letter
+1.5 months get response
+1.5 months i get to go to court
+1.5 months i get an verdict on the case

And this was just a simple common law civil request!!

I can't imagine the level of nitpicking and stalling and sandbagging they do at a corporate trial for patent infringement or licencing deals... It must be tedious, yet they somehow manage to motivate ($$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$)themselves every day to play the game.. I don't think i could do it, for no amount of money. I don't think i could live with myself to constantly play the game, just because that's the way the game is rigged to be played..


I used to be a very impatient person, but as of late, i seem to have gotten way better at it.
Waiting for the permit, waiting for this , waiting for court, waiting for that.. Guess i have learned that there are no shortcuts and a lot of things, well, it's just a waiting game really.

I've felt that way since I was about 11 years old, and I'm still waiting.

Naw. Never even saw a cop. But then again the roads around here, that is not unusual. Man that felt good.

Straight roads here are called driveways. Even our secondary highways are curvy. One of the few (very few) things about living in Va.
