    Santow (my old lecturer) put a large red exclamation point next to it but he is a Castle fan, so it went alrite :)

    the castle

    I once used the term "the vibe" in a public law exam

    I said he's not bad looking for a politician. He can still be a moron, as it were.

    Do we NEED a woman on the high court?

    I didn't say that they should be chosen just because they were women. But there are women fitting of the job.

    Yes at times she does tend to speak quickly, she acknowledged that herself and warns people to ask her to slow down. But I personally have no trouble following what she says. As for leaving out detail she doesn't dwell on things she believes are completely useless in practice, she's a more...

    He means the legal side of the movie was accurate... though perhaps not the best use of the term hehe

    Bar

    Juries are sometimes used as fact-finders in civil trials, such as negligence cases, though not often.

    the castle

    Yes: The point was whether the acquisition was "on just terms". Reading your approval of The Castle I would also recommend the film, The Man Who Sued God, with Billy Connely

    Bar

    Too bad you can't do that in real life :) I think barristers have an obligation to take on clients referred to them, so long as there is a reasonable price offered

    Yeh he definitely has some smarminess going, not as much as Costello pre-AntiSmirk training, but its there I sort of think its more me listening to what he's saying and just seeing it as empty rhetoric rather than anything that makes much of a point

    I suppose the Young Libs did speak out against him being too soft and too left for their liking, but I think that's a reflection as to skewed stance of the current hierarchy of the young Liberals rather than anything to say about Brogden's liberalism

    That's the thing, he is supposedly a small L liberal. One would never know it. But he has written things like this for example: Which seemingly asks for a less socially conservative agenda..

    The plot thickens.... who would have thought the paradoxical little Family First party would stick to its word
