Writing about web page http://blog.wired.com/27bstroke6/2008/01/oakland-califor.html

"Did you make a report of that?" DuBois asked the officer.
"No. But it stays vividly in my head."

Fun With Law I
English law is not as dry as it appears. Every so often you'll run into a case like this:
Parrott v Park [2007] EWHC 210
A contributed £73,000 (55%) of the purchase price of the yacht "UP YAWS", which was then registered in B's sole name. There was no evidence of an intended gift.Can you imagine having to sue someone to claim your share of a yacht called "UP YAWS"?
