$150 M.

That's the largest award attorney Rick Friedman received in his landmark case Bellot v. State Farm! The other ones are less...like, uh, $84 million and $17.3...

So when he's not kicking proverbial ass in the courtroom, he's following his wife's advice and finding out that "he has something to say that someone would want to read." He's written a few seminal trial lawyer yarns, one of which is Rules of the Road: A Plaintiff Lawyer's Guide to Proving Liability.

Well, that's what I have to read today. YES, homework! Now I'm not missing college! (Never was, until that skinny white boy Asher Roth came out with that bumpin frat anthem that makes me want to go back to a college with Greek life.) But, on the bright side, it's straight gawgeous outside, so I'm gonna read this one in the sun. Oh, and it's a classic photocopied book, which means you can't justify hitting anyone over the head with it. As you do.

So if you see me rubbing a stack of papers all over me, don't think I'm crazy.

I'm just trying to get some $150 millie skills.
