FU Very Much

The First Unichurck has become quite an institutionalized institution, and so have its members. (When I say members, generally speaking, I am not speaking about penises. I call those stiffies. However, when I speak about working stiffs, I am referring to employed zombies and, again, not penises. Employed zombies, or working stiffs, are a..., wait Now, where was I?).

Oh yes, members. FU members include some outstanding specimens with large, throbbing credentials: doctors and lawyers and such. What the FU has been doing thus far seems like a large, stinking, smoldering pile of waste of all of this accumulated education. You can probably see where I am going with this - an orgy of the dead.

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, perhaps I should start over.

This is a case about the deepest, most cherished and most human of all human emotions; confusion! Some may say that confusion is not a human emotion or that it is not deep. They are deeply confused humans. Do you see how I trapped them?

And so, I propose that we set aside our penis references and our efforts to terminate the employment of zombies. Instead, we should strive to share our confusion and to spread that confusion near, far and deep, literally and figuratively. (When I say literally, I mean figuratively).

You are probably asking yourself, is he going to get back to the penises and the zombies and the orgy? No, no I am not. That will be saved for Sunday's FU service.

Instead, I will move on to the topic at hand. We are now commencing our FU Advice Service Society. FU ASS is a way to get around the traditional billing system, to "back door" if you will into a professional without having to pay for it. It seems like a very religious and charitable thing to do and so, I will invite Dr. Bok to begin with some general FU ASS advice.


***FU ASS is not a substitute for traditional personalized professional services. Think of it as a second or even third option. A person who disregards this warning does so at his/her/transgender's peril.

Happy to get the ball rolling: First, a piece of sound medical advice--never blow your nose whilst sitting upon the John after having just pinched a loaf, especially if it's a particularly stinky one. The nose blow frees up all those little smell receptors and then BANG!! You're sorry you did it.

I see.

People often ask me, “Is it somehow to my advantage to have a crazy attorney involved in my legal matter?” This seems like a reasonable question, although I’m not sure why everyone asks it of me.

I have found that if you have a “strong” case, then you probably would prefer that neither party has a crazy attorney. A “strong” case refers to one where, based upon the facts and/or the law, you are not an idiot. You can expect there to be a tedious, lengthy, unsurprising, and very expensive set of proceedings after which you will emerge victorious and broke.

However, if the facts and/or the laws bode ill for your particular legal theory, then it is probably to your advantage that either you or your opponent has a crazy attorney. The reason for this is that crazy attorneys frequently depart from from traditional procedures in favor of more unique practices. Since you have little chance winning a “conventional” battle, crazy fighting might be your only hope. Remember that kid in elementary school that would spaz into a tantrum whenever he was involved in a dispute? Pretty effective, wasn't it.

It works something like this:

Opposing Counsel: In conclusion, the facts and the law dictate that my client must win.

Crazy Lawyer: Objection, your honor. I move that the jury be sequestered during nolo contendre on the grounds of e plurbis unim!!!

Judge: Counsel, this is a trial to the bench - there is no jury.

Crazy Lawyer: Precisely. May I approach?

Judge: No. Bailiff, please keep counsel at least 15 feet away from me.

Crazy Lawyer: I would like to make another motion. This will be sort of a twirling, swirling motion.

Judge: Stop that!

Crazy Lawyer: Is that plant 15 feet away?

Judge: Counsel, I see no reason to prolong these proceedings. Have you not considered the landmark case of Black vs. White, properly cited by opposing counsel?

Crazy Lawyer: Your Honoressness, I will neither bore you nor insult your intelligence by citing obvious controlling precedent. Your sharp legal intellect deserves more respect that such treatment would give. I apologize for the offense committed by opposing counsel in so underestimating you. I ask you to consider In re Mauve, a 19th century gem which, when read by candlelight, could be misinterpreted in such a way as to benefit my client.

Judge: I will take it under advisement. Now leave my courtroom!

Through this simple strategy, the crazy lawyer buys himself/herself/transgenderself enough time to run to the library in hopes that there actually is a case called In re Mauve. One never knows, the plan is crazy enough that it just might work.

While I may or may not agree and at this point remain fervently undecided, please allow me enough time to digest the fact that July 4 is actually celebrated on March 11 and I and my dear family may have missed the opportunity to celebrate the anniversary of this nation's first attacks on the British government.

Look, OneEar, what you call "crazy", others may call "wiley". As in "coyote". As in Wilius Coyotius. Others MAY call it that, but probably wouldn't.
