That's 285 hours of time for which GRB has not yet rendered payment!

At my average billing rate over this timeframe, I am owed $52,725. Michael, I accept cashier's checks or paypal. No funny business, please.
Where do you come up with 57 weeks? I've got you in the neighborhood of 230 weeks.

Quite you. It's not often a blood sucking lawyer undercharges you.

Oh Jeez! I meant 57 months! Thanks for the correction, luke. Fortunately, since he hasn't rendered payment yet, there's still time to get Michael the corrected bill for $210,900.

You're welcome. Just remember the little people while you swim in your piles of GRB money.

1,000,000 posts and only one World Series during that time...pathetic. We really need to step up our game.

I thought a hot-shot environmental attorney in Austin would bill at an hourly rate much higher than that of some lowly practitioner in DeKalb, Illinois.
