 Ah yes! !!!! They can exchange suits and cancel each other out! :)

 By the way George there was such a suit where a restuarant manager go
thimself in really hot water suing the local police dept. for
crippling business after a police officer had been shot out front and
the area had been cordoned off for a day... etc...  You may have read
about that. Anyway the owner of the business finally sent an apology
to the police department .. but the business never picked up again
due to that stupid manager. That took gall.

And yes that second suit wuold be the bleeding heart liberal bent.
Like as in gee i didn't know the coffee was hot...  (GEE I DIDN"TK NOW
I"D DIE IF JUMPED OFF A ROOF! Ran through a window.

OH OH George even BETTER!!! (based on real life yet!) The family
suses HOllywood cuz the Deceased had seen the leap through the window
on TV!(And the actor lived!)

TOP THAT!

OH wait!!! The family also sues the Martini makers!

 A wee bit soft side of dark humor. We don't want to go to the hard
side.
