I've always enjoyed Lee Child's Reacher novels, but his latest(?) work really irritated me. In "Make Me", the protagonist gets a hotel concierge to straw purchase some guns for him - "The cash was real. He was breaking no laws. He was protected by the Second Amendment." (p.341)
Irritating...
I was blissfully occupying condition white at the time the car appeared.
I'm also relating events that occurred several years ago and while several scenes of that encounter are firmly etched in my mind, I'm far too skeptical of my faculties of memory to say now what my instant-to-instant...
I really enjoy reading everyone's S&T posts - been meaning to cough up my own story for quite awhile, so here goes:

Hey all:
Yeah, I'm a lawyer - and I don't do much criminal defense. Most of my work is appointments handling Child Protective Services cases.
Which is a potential subject for another rant. When I go to a ramshackle trailer to do a home visit and questionable relatives are milling about...
<Sigh... Don't suppose it'll accomplish anything, but I felt compelled to respond:>
Dear Editor:
