Cryptic to-do list Give us your interpretation.
Transcript #2 (Day)

I can shed a lot of light on this. The person's a sailor. "Lizards" are short lengths of lanyard for guiding a line through a channel or fairlead. "Crewing up" is getting your people aboard before "sailing off". "Infuse relationship" has me stumped; there is a process in fiberglass boat-building called "vacuum infusion", but if he were doing that, he sure wouldn't be sailing the same day.

So I think "infuse relationship" refers to his work -- like yes, maybe he's a contract lawyer, and is working on his relationship with a company called Infuse. That gets the court in, too.

So the list is things he needs to do for work + things he needs to do to go sailing this weekend.

Damn, now I have that "Sailing" song going through my head. Who sang it? Christopher Cross?

I thought "infuse relationship" maybe had to do with something he learned in couples therapy.

Me too, matildaben. And that maybe the lizards are pets. Perhaps pets that need petsitting while he's off sailing. Hmm, I know a lawyer on a sailing team with a bunch of other lawyers from his firm. I wonder if that's a popular lawyer thing, like golf.

I think cold-blooded reptiles would be a good pet for a lawyer.

I keed because I love!

I think he's a supervillain, personally.

* He's got to buy some vicious attack lizards.

* "Infuse relationship" refers to his new mind-control formula.

* Transcript #1 - he records his diabolical speeches and has them typed up.

* After court - well, he's had a few run-ins with the law, obviously.

* Crewing up and sailing off - Obviously heading for his secret island lair.

Lizard- A short line with a loop or a block which another line may be run.
