I think my lawyer is pretty brilliant too. When he first proposed the hair follicle idea, I thought it sounded way too CSI for me. I don't care if he was drinking last month, I just care that he's not drinking around Kid. But it was actually a maneuver to give ex a chance to show his true colors behind the poor-dad-victim-of-malicious-mom facade, which he promptly did.
