Much of what we think we know about the law is actually a myth or misconception. This book debunks many of those myths and misconceptions by providing an entertaining yet educational tour of our American legal system, including its many oddities. In the process, the book answers many interesting legal questions about some of our most important, fascinating, and surprising laws in an array of areas. For example, the police do not have to read you your rights when they arrest you; in fact, sometimes they can even interrogate you without reading you your rights. Moreover, you can be charged and convicted of drunk driving for just turning the ignition key, even if you never drive the car or start the engine! While some contracts do have to be in writing to be enforceable, most don''t. The authors explain why. Written in a lively, appealing style, the book is composed of self-contained chapters, each addressing a distinct legal myth, oddity, question, or misconception. Select your favorite topic or enjoy the authors'' witty and very informative discussion of the law cover-to-cover. Either way, you are assured of being entertained, enlightened, and surprised!

Nicholas realizes he's just an ordinary person but not living an ordinary life. When he left the United States for the first time on his 20th birthday. It was March 30th, 2003; only days after the second Iraq War (World War 4? 19?) had begun. Traveling across Europe for 106 Days, his journal accompanied him, and documented his incredible experiences. As his eye opening and life changing moments occurred they sparked and fueled his creative purpose. In his first publication, Nicholas Gagnier shares his journey of dynamic adventures of excitement, love, & PEACE with his readers through the passages of his European journal. When Nicholas returned home to the United States of America, he had a yearning for political change, and an inspiration for creativity. During the summer of 2005, in Manchester Tennessee, at the Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival, Nicholas' filming aspirations took off. With the United States of America falling into tyranny under President George W. Bush, Nicholas' involvement in political activism grew larger. He couldn't and wouldn’t be content anymore. He had choices to make. Throughout Nicholas' fight for freedom & liberty in America, his desire for creating films continued as his political beliefs brought him closer to the political structure and a 2008 Presidential Candidate for the United States of America.. As time manifested Nicholas Gagnier becomes more philosophical and poetic about his life and the current world. When he embarks to Costa Rica years later, he realizes he may never return home.
