T-shirts, cut-offs, and a pair of thongs

WHO: Beach Party People!
WHERE: The MAC, the party bus, a rest stop, and the Wildwood Beach!
WHEN: Friday 11am and onward into the afternoon and evening
WARNINGS: Possible make outs? Possible fights?
SUMMARY: Teens and young adults in an RV driving to NJ to have a drunken bonfire. What could possibly go wrong???
FORMAT: OPEN! There will be sections for different locations and times of day, so feel free to tag in and collect as much CR as you like!

Jessica was beyond excited. In the days leading up to the RV trip, she barely shut up about it. Even as she boarded the RV Laura had procured for their adventure and took the shotgun seat, she could barely stop talking. It was a beautiful day in the City, and the weather reports for their destination in Southern New Jersey called for blue skies and sunshine. It would be perfect beach-going weather, and it was bound to be the perfect summer night!

Yes, I am, as a matter of fact, a lawyer.

You should have clarified that from the start. When you start criticizing the System as a blanket rather than dissecting specific problems within that system, well, forgive me but what else am I supposed to think? Now, if you want to argue for accountability, I'm all for that -- if you'd been listening to anything I said about the legal system, perhaps you would have picked that up.

And I have no qualms about keeping the system honest. Helping the people on the edge, the people lost in the cracks, though who need us most... that's our responsibility.

Right, so all of your jumping to conclusions is my fault! All I said is that trying to get change to take through bureaucracy wasn't as effective as you were making it out to be, you filled in all those blanks afterward on your own.

The assumptions you make say way more about you than about anything I ever said! And honestly, where do you even expect me to start with specific issues? This was a discussion of method, not goals.

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

Oh, come on! Isn't that equally applicable to you? You've been doing nothing but making assumptions about what I believe based on my profession. Just because I'm part of- - "The System".

And honestly? If you have goals, then you should have a method. Without it your plans will fall apart.

[hellisforchildren]

The only assumption I've made about you, based solely on your profession, is that you really should be better at arguing than this if you expect to make a living out of it. Other than that, I've been addressing your words.

I don't disagree, I'm just saying that we were discussing the most effective method, not which goals they should be used for. that's another conversation entirely.

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

Well, poor pitiful me, then. Doomed to a life of starvation.

Is it? You seem to think so, but I disagree. It's easy to lose your way if you choose the wrong method. And what you desire to do may not be the best way to do it.

[hellisforchildren]

Maybe not, but you do what you can and you hope that it nets results.

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

See, there. Something we can agree on.

[hellisforchildren]

You do your thing, I'll do mine, and we'll see if they don't meet in the middle somewhere.

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

Hmph. Can I get that in writing?

[hellisforchildren]

I'll have to talk to my lawyer first.

Heh.
