Re: Whiplash Hardy in Court

Dear Alan,

You have a question mark after your statement. What
specifically is your question or comment? Are you suggesting
that my little ditty makes light of serious whip lash cases?
That reminds me of the client who, when put on the witness
stand to explain what happened when she got hit from the rear,
to the jury, "My neck just...whipped
forward...and...lashed...back!" Yes, whip lash injuries can
indeed be very serious and disabling. Keep up the good work,
whatever it is. I assume you are a lawyer. Me, I'll do the
same thing. Thanks for reading my poem and commenting on it!

Sincerely,

Hardy Parkerson, Atty.
Lake Charles, LA
