I have a question(s).

I just now went to the restroom, and as I was standing there resting, I looked out the window beside the restceptacle (very convenient, I must say), and saw a highly attractive young blonde woman of the Delta Burke-class walking down the sidewalk below. What caught my eye (more than her) was the absolutely gigantic wheeled baggage she was rolling behind her. I figured from her clothing and the direction she was walking (toward the Legal Aid office) that she was probably a lawyer of some sort, but I have to ask--just WHAT is in all that luggage!? I've seen sales reps for brick companies carrying around stuff like that, but I've also noticed a good many lawyers doing the same.

Do you really have to have all that? Is it so heavy that they only let the big girls roll it around? Is there a legal requirement that the cases have to look all dumpy and sober, or can you have something with some color?

Just wondering.

A lady at Church on Sunday had a cart to carry all her bags. I really wanted to suggest that maybe she was overloaded and needed to lighten up but held my tongue.

She was also Delta Burke class.

Better to hold your tongue than to bite it off when she wallops you with an uppercut--there are some things that require deft verbal skills when it comes to broaching the subject of overloaded bags.

Now then, to the OTHER question--what was this lady you know doing bringing all that mess to CHURCH with her?!

They make hockey equipment bags in lots of lovely colors these days.

I don't think Justin is out wheeling any large bags around. Maybe he isn't big enough.

She didn't really seem the hockey-playing type, though, Skinnydan...

And Jordana, ask Justin if he knows anyone who does this, and just what it is in there that's so all-fired important.

Terry,

I was trying to spare your feelings by not mentioning that the lady is a preacher (not mine) since you no doubt, probably already believe that as a semi-Clavinist, I am already doomed without venturing into the difficult waters of women preachers.

You're a semi-Clavinist!? I thought they all disbanded after Cheers went off the air!!
