ZOOMING IN MIAMI

 This is an only in Miami story. 

Miami Courts had zoom. 

Then we did not. 

Now we do, but......

In the infinite wisdom of the leaders of our court system, we have zoom only as long as the Court does not tell anyone the zoom addresses of any judge. 

Yes, you read that right. They REMOVED the Zoom information/ directory from the Miami-Dade Court website. 

So you can in theory Zoom. But the Court system will not tell you the Zoom address you need. 

So then we thought we'd just post the directory here. But then we thought far be it from us to be a thorn in the side of the Court administration. You know us: "Go along and get along" That's our motto. No muckrakers we. 

So should we post the stupid directory or not? 

Meanwhile there is a race to greet and welcome visitors at the REGJB. 

The Clerk says Hello: 



Not to be outdone, our chief judge (and anti-zoom zealot? We mean, do they remove the zoom directory from the website without her okey dokey? Just wonderin...) wants to welcome the rogues gallery of REGJB visitors as well: 



So come visit the lobby of the REGJB! There is so much to do. Pose for selfies besides the bust of Richard Gerstein, look at the CJ poster, and then the Clerk's poster- with that finger pointing! That was made for a social media selfie if we ever saw one. And then stroll down the hall, past the elevators and pop into El Chapo cafe for a colada. Oh wait, never mind. It's cerrado. 

Fun fact: When we took the first pic of the CJ poster, we noticed a distinctively Rumpolian silhouette in the reflection. We have come so far in protecting our identity and were almost undone by a mocking post of the court administration, which if you think about it would have been poetic justice. But alas, to the chagrin of the powers that be, we live to Blog another day. 

GO USA SOCCER! We got a healthy ESP/USA parlay working as we write this.  And congrats to our lads who won on the Mexican pitch. Can a Rumpole seat at the Norway/England match this weekend in Miami be in the works? Well, first we need to win our parlay to afford the price of the ducats. And then we need to locate a prime pair. Email us if you have some you want to sell at a decent price.
