Hey Brendan,

Great work as always.  Some thoughts:

Introduction:  Same issue as before, more Moses talkin'.

Settling Disputes:  I love the use of modern settings, which give you the
opportunity to use different building styles as we discussed before, and also a
lot of torsos you wouldn't use otherwise.  Nice tile floor in the courtroom.
What's that hair on the judge?  Is it clay?  I like that almost no studs are
showing in that first picture.  Clever idea on the gavel.  I did something
similar with just one of the 1x1 round plates for a pipe.  Uncle Vernon makes a
good cop.

Accidental Death:  I really like the kitchen scene (again, no studs).  How many
sand blue headlight bricks do you have?!?  Numbers 35:19, I almost missed the
unfocussed scene in the background, very gruesome.  In the next picture, gray
hair makes a good rock, but I'll bet it was a pain to get everything set up for
that photo.  In the firing squad photo, what piece is inside the arched windows?
I like the blue house in the photo after that, and the microfig city in the
background of the hanging.  All of the execution scenes in this chapter remind
me of this website:

In the boxing scene, is the black guy with funky hair supposed to be Don King?
Just wondering.  It also seems like it would be uncomfortable to fight in
speedos.  :)  How did you get the screwdrivers to stick in the dartboard?

Brawling:  Grabbing the testicles is pretty funny.  That woman's arms are very different lengths.  I like the hospital scene.  Zam's veiled face makes a good surgical mask, and an appearence by R2-D2-- :D.  I like the brick wall.  Is it all just held by gravity, or is it actually stuck together.  There is some debate on the word you have translated as "miscarriage".  Some people argue that that actually refers to a premature birth, as the word is something like "to come out" and is elsewhere used for normal births.  That's one of the passages you'll hear people argue about in the abortion debate.   I really like the use of the western face for the "tooth for tooth" line.  Also, the arm backwards looks good as a broken arm.

Later,
Bruce
