re: Sleep Token ... your thoughts?

I love Sleep Token. It took me a few listens to connect with their music, but now I’m totally hooked. The new single (Emergence) is peak Sleep Token.

re: What did Law professor Levy do or say to warrant being investigated?

Posted by Joseph Bockrath on 1/25/25 at 8:25 pm to Justlurking

What did he say to get investigated? Was his ordinary curriculum not enough?

re: Would you refer to this person as a “doctor” outside of an academic setting?

Posted by Joseph Bockrath on 3/31/22 at 7:45 pm to SlowFlowPro

In all seriousness, I laugh at every lawyer who allows people to refer to him as “Attorney Joe” or whatever. Once mediated a case with this guy who insisted on being called “Attorney [name],” but obviously we refused to call him that. It was like a movie.

“More for Gore or the son of a drug lord.

None of the above. frick it, cut the cord.”

Edit: Saw them live at Voodoo Fest around ~2006-07, so the memory of Katrina was fresh. Great show. Played all the hits. But Zach gave this horrid speech that went something like: “The United States is at war in two places! In the deserts of Iraq and in the Lower Ninth Ward!”

You could hear a pin drop. I’m still amazed he didn’t get aggressively booed.

re: Why is the NFL podcasting world refusing to talk about Watson allegations?

Posted by Joseph Bockrath on 3/24/21 at 12:39 pm to SirWinston

It was covered on the NFL's flagship podcast (Around the NFL) on Monday and the Athletic's main football podcast.

But why let facts get in the way of a good story?

re: Pediatric Heart Specialist

Posted by Joseph Bockrath on 10/5/19 at 12:02 pm to drunkenpunkin

Let me be the fourth ITT to recommend Young. I had two heart surgeries at Oschner NOLA as a kid, and Dr. Young has been my cardiologist for a long time (Oschner keeps your pediatric team in-place until you are in your young 20s).

Anyway, since he knew me and my file, he still handles my yearly check-ups (I'm in my young 30s now). My wife and I have a little one on the way, and he is already looking to line up tests to check on baby Bockrath to see if I passed along my heart defect. I could not speak more highly of the guy. I live in BR now, but I will gladly drive to NO for me and little one to stay under his care.

re: US District Court in NOLA has stayed a bunch of civil cases where fraud has been alleged.

You have lost your absolute mind. If you remove #3, Insurers would deny all first party claims and all insureds would be screwed. I'm sure homeowners would love that come the next hurricane or flood.

So your view is that an insured---as a party to an insurance contract---wouldn't have the ability to sue his insurer for dishonoring a contractual covenant absent the direct action statute?

This is probably wrong.
