But right now, knowing what we know, to look into legal representation is probably the smart thing to do. She just said she’s looking for a lawyer, and we’re labeling it a frivolous lawsuit already?

Oh my God= ref to One God makes other God’s jealous.
Oh my God= ref makes other diety worshippers pissed theirs wasn’t ref’d.
Oh my God= ref taking a name in vain (although not a name).
OMG= in some literary places this is only text msging, a lower/sub form of communications and is therefore not proper.
Hence:”Ohmigod”.
If this is not already a word, look for it coming soon in an Oxford dictionary near you.

I think having a door busted down in the middle of the night and strangers pulling guns on a person will have more lasting effects.
