I was having lunch yesterday with my supervising attorney who told me an interesting story about a local attorney with quite a colorful attitude about the law. What caught my attention, however, was the mention of a photo that the attorney enlarged and hung on his office wall:
It seems that Frank Sinatra was arrested by the Bergen County, New Jersey sheriff in 1938 and charged with carrying on with a married woman. The charge was later changed to adultery and eventually dismissed. (Photo courtesy of The SmokingGun.com)
I'm not certain what message the photo conveys to prospective clients (or fellow attorneys) but I like the attitude it takes to hang it behind one's desk chair.
I also can't help but note the smirk on Sinatra's face in the left picture. I mean, why not? As I often tell myself, there are worse things to be busted for than being irresistible. Uh, right.
(Oh, and a serenade to the first person who can tell me where I got my title for this post)

Hmmm... I don't think I'm going to win the contest, but I can tell you that when typing in "it's brisk baby" and "Sinatra" into Google, your blog is the first listing. Cool, huh?
Lipton tea purports to be, "Brisk, baby! Brisk!" I don't know what it has to do with the Sinatra mug shot though.
Top of the Google listing? HA!
: )
I love a good Thursday morning mystery.
