Enviar a email | More funny stuff from the lawyer going after SmartFlix en General | Por Mark Frauenfelder el 22-Jun-2007 | Mark Frauenfelder:
Travis Corcoran owns a how-to DVD rental service called SmartFlix. A while back, a DVD maker contacted Corcoran and told him to stop renting his DVD on SmartFlix. Corcoran said no, and the DVD maker hired a lawyer, with the almost-too-good-to-be-true name of Robert H. Tourtelot.
Tourtelot's methods of trying to get Corcoran to stop renting his client's DVD are unique. First, he joked with his client that Corcoran was under 5'6" tall (cc'ing Corcoran in the email). Next, the attorney challenged Corcoran to a fight (including an implied death threat):
Tourtelot: Dear Mr. Corcoran: I am in receipt of your e-mail to my client, Mr. XXX. I note your comments about me. I have a proposition for you. I will pay your way to California if you will agree to come and meet me in a gym, the address of which the limo driver who meets your flight will have.
Oh yes, the deal only includes a one-way ticket, as I do not believe you will be needing the return portion! Ciao, and have a good day. RHT
Corcoran: Are you proposing a boxing or MMA match?
I accept. I?ll pay my own way back, of course.
Any weekend in June works for me.
Please mail the airline ticket (departing from Logan Airport, in Boston) to the address I previously supplied.
I look forward to our bout (I usually do heavy bag work in my training sessions, but I?ll make sure to add some speed bag work to the mix over the next few weeks).
Shall we specify the same $1,000 wager that you suggested to Mr. XXX in your bet about my height?
Tourtelot: Plain and simple, pal. A street fight.! By the way, do you have a Black
Belt also?
Corcoran: Please send the plane ticket.
Belive it or not, the story gets even better from here.

| Hilarious exchange between lawyer and SmartFlix | | Mark Frauenfelder:
Travis Corcoran is the owner of a wonderful how-to DVD rental service called SmartFlix. One of the publishers of a DVD that SmartFlix offers didn't like the idea that SmartFlix was renting out his video so he retained a lawyer, Robert H. Tourtelot, to try to get SmartFlix to stop renting the DVD.
Corcoran has published the email messages that the DVD maker and his lawyer has sent him, along with Corcoran's replies to these clueless emails. The lawyer was so out of his league with Corcoran that he resorted to making jo Leer nota completa |  | Publicado 22-Jun-2007 por Mark Frauenfelder en General Leído 37 veces. Más resultados en  |

NOTE: We removed the posts from last week about SmartFlix and the attorney. The family of the attorney contacted me and explained that he's not well at this time. We wish him and his family the best.
