An Emmy For Lehigh Lawyers?

Back in August, I told you that Lehigh County's Bar Association had just snagged an Emmy nomination for Not Behind the Wheel, a video that discourages teens from texting while driving. It's the second time this conclave of barristers has been nominated for a regional Emmy.

Since that time, Executive Director Dan LaBert has been pretty much insufferable. He insists on being called Megatron for some reason, and demands three chilled bottles of San Pelligrono delivered to his office daily, which he's started calling his dressing room.

It's only going to get worse. The Bar Association won a Mid-Atlantic Emmy on September 24 at some swanky hotel in Philly.

"I want to thank my parents for having a child as good-looking as me. This is not as much fun as chasing an ambulance, but it's close. Looks like I finally got lucky."

Post a Comment

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
