Merry Christmas


Last Minute Shopping

     I was at a store this afternoon. I wasn't buying a Christmas gift. I was there for a more routine reason. There was a fellow ahead of me making quite a purchase. He said he was doing all his Christmas shopping then and there. From the looks of things he was buying presents for at least 25 people. It was a convenience store. He was buying lottery tickets.

Binder And Binder Bankruptcy Details

     A few more details are emerging on the Binder and Binder bankruptcy. As I predicted, they have discontinued advertising. They're still taking on new cases, however. They say that their revenues last year were 20% below their projection, which makes it surprising that they were able to avoid bankruptcy so long. They've shut down offices in Atlanta, Brooklyn, Chicago, Newark, N.J., Raleigh, N.C., and Seattle. More of their offices will close in June.

Merry Christmas
