MY REFRIGERATOR MAGNET-AN HOMAGE---

  • My new, lovely parting gift for all parties.

TO THE MASTER-JUDGE KAYE TERTZAG

  • Judge Kaye Tertzag is one of my heroes. One of the first facilitators, he would give out these refrigerator magnets at his hearings. Though the Judge died in 2009, I still have this magnet on my refrigerator 10 years later. Judge Tertzag and I did not agree on some very big political issues, but he was the professional embodiment of his 3Ps: Be Prompt, Be Prepared, Be Polite.

Detroit GT


  • Detroit GT is the website of artist Christopher Gorski. A lifetime Detroiter and certified "Car nut", he studied at the premiere College of Art and Design in Detroit - the Center for Creative Studies (CCS). One hand drawn shirt in high school has grown into a full line of apparel and merchandise celebrating Detroit and other uniquely Michigan locales.

    His Detroit Landmark graphic art pieces are remarkable. Some are shown below, and I have 8 of them framed on my office walls (see blog post).

    The prints can be purchased through the site or at my favorite store, Art Is In Market in Laurel Park Place in Livonia.

LAWYERS LEAGUE SOFTBALL-BELLE ISLE

9A29AAEA-8B09-40D7-87F1-D1545918F48A

Thanks to Mary Catherine Rentz for providing this picture of Sheldon Miller and Joe Lujan, circa—-sometime before last summer, when they played for their respective firms in the Belle Isle Lawyer Softball League.  Shel for Lopatin Miller, and Joe for Plunkett & Cooney (in the days before they got rid of the &).

According to LexFugit.com correspondent Tom Calcatera (Bernstein & Bernstein alum, currently of the Mike Morse law firm) the Belle Isle branch of the Lawyers League no longer exists, though there is still a current version of the old Softball City Lawyers League, which plays in Mt. Clemens, and is run by Judge Mark Switalski and Judge Boedeker.

It would be nice to revive the league on Belle Isle. Mike Morse v Hewson van Hellemont would draw big crowds, especially if the firm’s principals played.
