[img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img] great post. I have two [img]graemlins/offtopic.gif[/img] comments.
1. Child support can be RETRO-active. Meaning, when she drags his butt into court 10 years later, he'll have to pay for the whole life's worth of child support - unless he paid from the beginning, and assuming she made regular requests/demands that he pay. That's where the $50K support orders I referenced come from. In most states, support is about 20% or so of income - so unless the guys a CEO, it would not amount to that much unless aggregated over dozens of years.
2. I have never heard, and absolutely adore, the revenge/crow comment.
