Well said, Adore! It really is amazing at all the stupid things that people sue over. So much so, that now...anybody selling anything anywhere has to cover their butt and put labels on everything...."do not use while sleeping"....I still don't get that one...LOL
Really, it's so sad that some people are the way they are. Personally, I'm not into money and materialism (and believe me, there is a LOT of that out here in Silicon Valley) and I can't see how people can be so greedy. Sure, I want to live a comfortable life, but I would volunteer my time and resources in rescue or some other organization with animals(wolf eduction center)...even though I'm not getting paid...but I would love it more than the job I have now!!
Unfortunately...I do have to support myself out here...ugh Maybe in a few years if I decide to move back to the midwest I will seriously think about going that route. But right now, I'm perfectly content being the "average joe" in the income dept.

I agree...the coffee thing and the tobacco thing were a little far fetched...as is this slipping in dog slobber thing! Ok, sorry but coffe is supposed to be hot and there have been caution labels on cigarette packs for years! I can't believe that guy won!
I slipped and fell when I was hiking in a state park...does that count?? Jeesh! I wouldn't be surprised if someone tried THAT one!
I guess all petstores are going to have to put up caution signs if they are going to continue to allow people to bring their pets to stores to avoid further annoyances such as this...
