WOW. You’ve got to be the hippest, most progressive lawyer around. Is it the Entertainment influence?
Cool site…. I don’t feel like my case is high enough profile for you…. guess I could dress in drag at the courthouse; you know, just to throw in some pizazz. Or maybe not….
Hasta manana

In the News-Rocky Mtn. news story regarding
Threlkelds v. Colorado regarding the death of Archuletta.
Another sad story about how people don’t think thru to the possible consequences of there actions. It’s horrible to see that 2 young lifetimes have been ruined because of poor judgement of what could possibly happen. Mr. Threlkelds obviously cared a great deal about Miss Archuleta and living with the pain of that seems to be enough punishment, I’m sure he has learned his lesson already. I personally think 20 years is abit too much for this accidental death. And probably 5 to 10 would be more than enough punishment. I know he is responsible for his actions, but I think a lighter sentence is in order. But, that’s just my opinion. I know that both families must be devistated by this incident… I really wish people would think twice or even three times before they act on such decisions as driving drunk or getting into the car of someone who is driving drunk or on drugs… Then maybe this kind of thing wouldn’t happen so often.

Martin Luther King Jr. Marade…
I just wanted to say I went to the Marade this last Monday. Was that ever awsome!!! The Civil rights and Human rights have such a great effect on all of us. No matter what race, color or creed. I found it very inspirational that people in American History have continued to fight for these rights so that we can all live a much more peaceful life and place than our ancestors… If you get a chance go next year!
I just felt inspired to voice that… Thank you, Thank you very much….
