OTR: the Widow Makers (Torts)

Baby’s expensive:

Professor T: “Statistics say that to get your child from 0 to 18 costs about $200,000food, clothing, buying a larger house – every time your child looks at you it’s like looking at an endless money pit.

Professor T & the Widow Makers:

Professor T: “I have the loggers clear trees on my property. The hanging limbs are dangerous. We call them Widow Makers. So I have the loggers sign a three page release. They sign it because they think “Professor T is crazy,” but I’m also the biggest target in the county because I’m the only one in the entire county that’s gainfully employed…”

Don’t piss off the officer:

Professor T: “the waiver form they have you sign before you get in a police car says: ‘not only are we not liable for any injuries that arise from a high speed chase, but our police officer can turn around and shoot you in the head and you can’t sue.’

Jill wants to know:

Jill: “Where do we draw the line?! Do I have to stay in bed for the rest of my life wearing a helmet in case I get in an accident or break a statute I’m unaware of?!”
