Futurelawyer

Warning To "Sensitive Souls" And "Snowflakes". The Futurelawyer Site Is Not A Safe Zone.

It is past time for a backlash against those who are too sensitive to hear offensive or objectionable words (at least, in their opinion). It is past time for all of us to tell the A**** that we don't care if they are offended. What kind of people are we, and what kind of kids are we raising? 

Internet Everywhere - How Fast Is Your Hotspot?

Sluggish Hotspot Made Faster With One Setting. Gone are the days when a mobile lawyer had to find a hotel lobby or airline waiting area or hotel room with a cabled or WiFi Internet connection. No longer are we subject to insecure WiFi hotspots, with spotty reception, or hotels that want an arm and a leg for Internet access. I am old enough to remember crawling under a motel room bed to find the phone jack so that I could connect a dial up modem that could hardly handle a text based email transmission. These days, the biggest problem is learning how to connect your phone to a 5Ghz connection for fast hotspot data. For less than $15 a month, I have several devices (phones and tablets) that can use up to 40 Gigabytes of hotspot data a month, which is enough for all my Internet needs when traveling in the RV, and that includes TV streaming. You don't need Cable TV. You don't need Satellite TV. You don't need to call the front desk about the spotty WiFi. Learn to use your Smartphone Hotspot, and better yet, have a second phone to use as a Hotspot. It is secure. It is easy. Just make sure you configure the Hotspot to the fastest connection you can use, either 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz.

How Comics Shaped The FutureLawyer's Lifelong Love Of Gadgets.

When Chester Gould began Dick Tracy in 1931, it was an homage to Eliot Ness, during a time in which the good guys went after the bad guys, and their exploits were chronicled in the paper based newspapers and comic books. In 1946, Dick acquired a two way wrist radio, which later became the idea for a wrist phone that sent video back and forth. As a young boy, I was fascinated with the wrist communication device, and it sparked the later development of the SmartWatch, using tech developed for Smartphones. 

"On January 13, 1946,^[7] the two-Way Wrist Radio became one of the strip's most immediately recognizable icons, worn as a wristwatch by Tracy and members of the police force. This radio wristwatch inspired Martin Cooper's invention of the mobile phone, and may have inspired later smartwatches.^[8] The two-Way Wrist Radio was upgraded to a two-Way Wrist TV in 1964.^[9] This development also led to the introduction of an important supporting character, Diet Smith, an eccentric industrialist who financed the development of this equipment. In a conspicuous coincidence, the idea of a radio built into a wrist watch played an important role in the story line of "Superman – The Talking Cat" broadcast on the Mutual Broadcasting System on January 9 through 28, 1946 (episodes 878 through 891)."

So, the next time you take a call or text or email on your wrist, you can thank a comic book character. And Dick Tracy.

Seriously? You Would Rather Sit At This Computer?

We are not amused, lawyer boy.

#WhyIAmASolo - I Don't Have To Fight With Anyone Over Who Used Up The CopyPaper.

Why I Prefer Being A Mobile Lawyer In An RV To Being In A Hotel Or Motel.

RV Over Hotel. While the Pandemic had a lot to do with my purchase of a used RV last year, it was other factors that make me happy I did. Not having to spend hours in airport waiting areas, and crowded airplanes, and renting cars, and worrying about other people, and paying a lot of money for a single ticket, and sleeping in a space that only had my imprint on it, and having inexpensive drinks and snacks available all the time, and having a work area that I was comfortable in, and not having to pack and unpack all the time, and not worrying about who cleaned my space, and whether they did a good job, and being able to come and go whenever I wanted to, were the primary reasons I am happy with purchase. Don't be fooled by the huge prices that recent vintage RVs command. No plus hundred thousand purchases for us. You can get a great RV for no more than the price of a good, used car, if you spend time looking. Mobile lawyering isn't much different these days, wherever you go, and however you get there. Smartphones, tablets and computers, which can connect to the Internet anywhere in the country that has mobile phone access, and Internet access that makes TV antennas and Satellite antennas and cable TV obsolete, make you a lawyer wherever you want to be, and it doesn't matter if you drive in an RV or fly in a plane. Of course, the RV allows you to see much of the real USA on the ground. RV travel isn't without its problems, of course. Equipment malfunction, and accidents, and all the other things than can happen on a road trip, can create a bad day. But, automobiles suffer all the same maladies, and airplane travel has a whole host of problems. So, while I will practice law until the end, I will take some time to smell the roses of this country, while being really a mobile lawyer, and keeping in touch with that modern marvel of communication, the Internet. You know how to reach me. If you want personal contact, Zoom or Google Meet me. We can be sure I won't be getting any diseases over the Internet, and that the only viruses I will be exposed to are digital.

This is a hilarious collection of parrots doing what they do best...vocalizing and mimicking humans. Only 7 minutes...watch to the end.

 

Say Goodbye, Mickey.

Disney World Crowds and Long Lines. Let's see. Disney goes woke, and cancels characters because of their politics. Disney cancel Annual Passes for loyal Florida residents who spent thousands over years. July and August lines in 100 degree heat get even longer. You now have to have a reservation to get into Disney World. Remember the Magic Bands that allowed you to get a FastPass for up to three rides a day? Gone. Oh, and free speech went to Disney World to die. I have a final message for the woke suits at Disney. Goodbye.
