Teller Lawsuit to protect Magic Trick

This is an interesting case I just read about in the October 2012 Esquire.  It raises numerous issues including, is a magic trick eligible for copyright? The Teller "trick" really verges on performance art and is pretty impressive. There is still a Youtube video of the Bakardy/Dogge version. Ino link because I don't want to encourage him) It is no where near as artful and I can see the argument that widely selling a cheap knock off would lead to dilution of the Teller original. I'm a big Penn & Teller fan so I have to admit I'm biased. This will be interesting to watch.

Kids today: Julian Presents "Lego Road Trip" - YouTube

When I was a kid summers were spent sweating, getting bitten by mosquitoes and going to the cheap matinees. Kids today are amazing. Julian is the writer, director and producer of this stop motion short. He spent his summer making movies. This is his latest offering.

He also was the cinematographer and editor on our 2012 Pearland Film Festival Entry: "Ivory Merchant Present: THE BACHELOR". We won for technical direction--Thanks, Julian. (Yes that is your lawyer acting like an Edwardian dandy so you can see why we did not win for best actor.)

Technology is a disruptive influence. It has radically altered the practice of law but for today, I'm enjoying the benefits it has with regard to the great creativity of our friend Julian.  Enjoy his work.

7 Reasons Why I Can't Do "Free" | SharonHayes.com

This is a great blog post about being able to provide free services.  The best advice I ever got from another attorney was, "Do pro bono work on purpose. Not accidentally."  It is a tough lesson but Sharon Hayes makes great points. I would recommend this post to all small businesses.
