Anyone, Art...
...whose ambition is to piss off the Americans deserves the rest of the free world's undying admiration and support. Think of it as revenge for Nevada: according to the Shoshone, the only possible reason anyone could have had for colonising Nevada was to piss off their tribe.
Cheers,
pplater.

Our judges this time around are . . .
. . . pplater for Static Photo, Nicolas for Wrist Scan, and Ed for Watch of the Week.
That's precisely the reason why . . .
. . . I submitted a static photo this time ;-) . . .
That was an "STE", Art...
- "Serious Tactical Error". If you thought HE could be merciless..... ;-) Cheers, pplater.
Hey judge!
It's spelled: merciless . Email transmitted from a safe location ;-) -- Richard.
All verdicts have been rendered . . .
. . . so let's start with Static Photo. Jurisdiction this week: pplater. "There were a number of valiant and thoughtful efforts this week. Art, however, was immediately disqualified for his blatant but misconceived attempt at 'judge-jockeying'. He figured...
Our other attorney . . .
. . . was refreshingly cordial . . . "Hi My Dear Art, Here is my verdict for the wrist shot of the week: Mrs Jed is the winner. I can't say no to a woman (ask to my wife, she will confirm that I said yes the day of our marriage) nor to a Cher Confrere's w...
Yes, Art... A lawyer can ALSO be charming.
And two lawyers even more! Best, my friend. Nicolas
Johnny Cochran and F Lee Bailey . . .
. . . pale in comparison to our Dream Team! The two of you are priceless, separately or together ;-) . . .
The danger of speaking figuratively . . .
. . . is the risk of being misunderstood ;-) . . .
Watch of the Week has been declared . . .
. . . a mistrial as an Exhibit not submitted during the Wrist Scan session was mistakenly awarded. Judge Ed will be reviewing the evidence and submitting a revised decision shortly.
The second trial for Watch of the Week . . .
. . . ended with a just verdict. "Hi Art, Now that I know the rules for Watch of the Week category, LOL, it still doesn't make it easier to pick the winner since we have such nice pictures posted. There were a few pics that deserve honorable mention inclu...
Mrs. Jed will no doubt be thrilled.
I have e-mailed her a link and asked for her reaction to the honor. I must concur with my Cher Confrere as to the seductive power of a woman and a Daytona. Thanks for the compliment, Nicolas, and all the best, Mr. MrsCaliforniaJed
Her reaction:
"Oh, sounds like he just picked me because I'm a girl, but I'll take that!"
No. Because of the combo: Dayto on a lady's wrist.
And a bit because she's a lady. Pffffff.... It is hard to advocate at 5.30 AM. Best to both of you. Nicolas.
Nicolas, if I had need...
I'd take your advocacy at 5:30am over another's at any hour! And good morning. Time for an espresso, no? She's sitting across from me in the living room and she says she's honored, but she's no lady, she's my wife! ;-) Best, CaliforniaJed
LOL... No, just the time to pick a train, to go to plead in nowhere's land. :)
Say Hello to her, from me. Best, Nicolas
One wrist shot in particular drew my attention . . .
. . . for the pun offered by the designation on the dial . . . . . . in relation to Blomman's theme. Now, if only the watch were a 'LunaTi c k' and had a seconds hand, we'd have a rare triple entendre ;-) . . ....
Congrats, Ken. And superbly written Verdict, Your Honor.
Aussies can aussi be good! Best, Nicolas
Just as les Francais...
...can also be frank. ;-) It was a pleasure serving on your bench, M. le President. It is not possible to dissent on any decision of yours. Bien amicalement, Cheers, pplater.

The Scots reservoir engineer . . .
. . . pissed off his American colleagues only once. The second time around, the Yanks showed up at the meeting with their slide rules ;-) . . .
Whoa, I wonder why I missed this.... and to be precise....
... I had dinner with friend "A" two weeks ago and he generously rent me Lange Tourbillon PLM knowing that we would meet again in less than a week and I promised to take nice photos of it in return, which I posted here last week. Then at the small GTG whe...
Anyone who knows you...
...would happily lend their watches! I would gladly entrust any of my pieces to you, Ken! Of course, I don't have anything as pricey as your friends' treasures! Hope you are well! Daos
Ugh! Close but no cigar for me!
Congrats to Ken! Thanks, Pplater, for considering my efforts! Cheers, Daos
this week's new WristScan masthead photo
Patek by KIH & Rolex by CaliforniaJed & Minerva by deBalzac...
Not in California, Nicolas. Legally speaking, it's . . .
. . . a state governed by community property laws . . .
Really? I didn't notice anything strange last time I was there...
Unless I wasn't at the right place... Bill? Best, Nicolas
You were still married....
In California, so it is said, "What's hers is hers and what's yours is....hers". Cheers, pplater.
No...
(unless that floats your boat). Family law - property division. She would get the house, the car, the MMR; you'd get a Swatch Watch and the debt. Cheers, pplater.
