One weird trick, a bunny, and ChatGPT

I’m not exactly sure why clickbait so often begins with “one weird trick”, but I figure if I include that phrase, plus “ChatGPT”, you’ll be hooked. Besides, that headline scores really well with SEO! I know, I know, SEO isn’t everything. Especially in the dry, Eastern Washington desert where we eat sagebrush for breakfast and […]
Two lawyers making tents

Have you heard that one about the two lawyers making tents? Neither have I. In fact, I just checked the most popular search engine of 2022, and they don’t have a single joke about two lawyers making tents. I found jokes from movies and TV shows and just plain good lawyer jokes (like the one […]
Brushing up against the law

Yesterday, I received this Amazon package with an electric arc lighter that claims to be windproof. That would be perfect for the Tri-Cities! But, this was weird. I didn’t order a lighter.

This search isn’t limited to my […]
Candy before tacos
Candy before tacos may sound a little backwards, but not if you are running a 5k through Richland’s Candy Mountain Preserve like we did last week. In fact, tacos were the perfect prize at the finish line, waaay better than a finisher’s medal! Humble beginnings A few months ago, as part of Anderson Law’s annual […]
Dog On ItDog On ItDog On It
So, my Dad passed away last week. I know this blog isn’t normally personal, except in the personal injury sort of way, but since my readership consists primarily of my office, a few friends and other bots, and Google, I may as well go a little personal this week. This is because part of the […]
