Peoples @ MindSay

Okay, I have a burning question that I hope somebody in my Mindsay family can answer for me!

 

When people go on these televised court shows like Judge Judy, Mathis, Joe Brown, Alex...etc....HOW DO THEY GET PAID for what they win in court.

 

Yes, I know this isn't real court but it is an arbitration with winners and losers.  So, if the defendants didn't have the money to pay in the first place, how are the winners getting paid?  You never see anyone come back saying that they weren't paid what they "won" on the court show, so how does it work?

 

PLEASE TELL ME! 

 

(and please vote for this particular blog so that it can get enough exposure to get the right answer, please!  I've seen the little "funds" announcement at the end of People's Court, but i still don't understand it!)

 

In advance, I thank you!

Okay i realize that she will probably never read this and if she did, well maybe she would realize how fucked up it has been.

Here is the deal. I am not going to say much in detail to be safe. The people she had been staying with and was going to move with , her and i thought everything would be cool. No the guy decided to be all over her and tell her she had to fuck him to have a place to stay. Big dude also. Well she had enough and kicked the living shit out of him in a bar , the bouncers and a few bodyguards could not stop her..funny nobody believes me when i tell them she is tough in the first place but put a ton of alcohol into an Indian and you have invincible.

She called me drunk and telling me a little of what happened and how she needs my drive for family etc.
Of course sobers up and decides that i am of no help. I did not get too involved because i am tired of the shit.
Then last night she shows up and tell me she is with some decent friends (for now). Again talking about us getting together. I believe this is what she wants right now. I do not know if i want to probably go through the the same bullshit. She is in denial a lot and does not always learn from her mistakes or admit them.
So  What  now. Do i try it at least or do i just say hey I love you but you do not treat me good and i need time at least. Or hey why don't we just do what we are doing . You get a place, i get one, sometimes we hangout together( i have no desire to hang out with her friends and deal with jealousy and weirdness) fuck sometimes if you need the connection and raise our daughter. Hope you find a decent man to make you happy and that i can respect and be friends with.Because i am happier now and i want to live my life a little , i was drowning in you, in drug addiction and alcohol and unmedicated bi polar depression, i want to see if i can do it. And i cannot survive the stress.

I just want her to have a good life, get it in order, maybe find a good man, and be that weird ex husband that turns into more of a friend older brother person.

Well who the hell knows , right?

remember this and all else shines.

One of the things Mr. Crystal proposes is that there is more than one English language.  There is the English we speak everyday among our peers.  There is the local slang.  There are ethnic and cultural slangs.  There is  IM and email protocol.  There is "Standard Academic English", but who decides what is "standard" and what isn't?  The English I learned in grammar school 40 years ago is not the same English that is taught today ... or is it?   How do we "communicate" across these variances?  or can we?

Then, of course, there are the many nations and peoples who have "adopted" English.  Is their English the same as my English? Is my English the same as your English?  hahaha  As you see, I have been sucked into the subject ... and find it fascinating!

Any thoughts?  Comments?  OK ... well then, back to work!

I actually don't believe in God. 

I believe in people,

People make clothes,

                    harvest food,

                               build shelter,

Provide love.

 

Believing in people has done me well so far, and I know the ones I trust will never let me down :)

Yes, that's right, Hitler's B-day!

I'll kill any nazis I come across...only if they're small nazis though, I'll leave the big ones to Tony and my fiance :)

I love my multicultural peoples :)
