One of the current headlines in the news is about whether President Trump will agree to a sit-down with Mueller's team. This means he will meet with a bunch of lawyers out to get him and he comes with a bunch of lawyers trying to save him. Oh, well. The point here is such a meeting once upon a time was called an interview or a deposition. Not no more, baby! Mafia movies have so infiltrated out culture, we are using language from them. In such flicks, a sit-down was when one party had a grievance against another, and permission from the mob bosses was needed before the administration of a redress, i.e. a hit. Or is it because much of our public has no concept of what a deposition means. As a nation of the intelligent, we are rapidly losing it. What's next? A subpoena for a sit-down ? (The law meets the mafia?) Funny.
