Am I going to need a lawyer?

 

It was the water droplets on the leaves that made the trees look as if they were loaded with diamonds.

Then the loud screeching of the train coming to a stop drew my attention from the leaves, and the mixture of steam and smoke reminded me that being a passenger on a train was not all that exciting.  I didn’t like being jostled and the seats were not all that comfortable.

I stood out of the way, watching as the passengers got off the train.  I didn’t know what he looked like, so I held up my sign that read, Zobostic Corwin.  Hopefully he would see it.  All I knew about him was that he wrote a blog, and something that he had written had caught the attention of the Feds.  I was to pick him up and escort him into our office for questioning.  That’s all my boss would say.

On the ride in he tossed a few questions my way.  I explained I was not in the loop.  "My only instructions were to get you to the office."  Neither of us spoke for some time and then he said, “It could be that I violated that i before e rule, or it is altogether possible I left a participle dangling and someone tripped over it.

“I wouldn’t know anything about that." I said.
