The two-week jury trial I was part of involved a lot of preparation largely because the opposing party changed the entire nature of their four-year-old case one month prior to trial. As any trial lawyer knows, the amount of preparation time to trial is anywhere from 2:1 to 5:1 depending on the type of case. Jury Trial/Day JobĪlthough I managed to sneak away and sail here and there, the last few weeks of May and all of June were dedicated to a jury trial. That’s a fair bit of stuff, so I’ll summarize each and then focus on getting back to the stuff people care about –as soon as I figure out what that stuff is. So, to sum-up life, since the last posting- a jury trial (yes, the day job still exists), sailing, arranged basics of shipping cargo to South Africa, started purchasing items on the inventory list, formed the official corporate entity for the boat, the boat is officially under construction, bumped up my ASA instructor qualifications to include Catamaran Cruising (ASA 114), and nervously watching COVID’s impact on Capetown and the possible boat delivery date (well, and concerned about the people too- I’m not a monster). So buckle up buttercups and hold on, because this is going to be one bumpy ride. Lots of good stuff has been happening- sailing, vacations, boat updates, equipment purchases. No racism or misogyny intended– just some old man nostalgia here.)

(Warning- only old codgers and devotees of 80s movies once thought sweet, but now seen as casually racist and misogynist will get that the title is a movie reference at all.
