Hardly. Tentative trial date in next spring. We're trying to depose some people in Taiwan right now and it's like trying to karate chop through a concrete block using only your pinky.

So it's really easy is what you're saying.

On top of that I just received a PO for 10,000 pair of speakers from a customer that hadn't bought any of them in years. I guess they have a new dealer who's fond of this certain model and has committed to doing 10,000 for at least the next few years.

10,000 = $425K gross sales and $127.5K in profit. None of this was forecasted so it's total icing on the cake which will help to insure we can keep the lawsuit going. Merry Christmas to us!!!

Easier than China. Any Chinese citizen that agrees to testify in a US court case gets arrested and jailed indefinitely.

Applied for another writing job that is looking for writers to write articles on live shows and concerts going on in the area. They pay for the concert fees, etc. I'm hoping I have a chance to do this as it would be another great resume builder.

If you don't get the job I'll be sad. If you do I'll be mad. It's a no-win situation for you.

I'll be super thrilled if I do. But your vote of confidence is nice.

That'd be cool. Also, Bandcamp Daily is looking for freelancers.
