"Affidavits: or Statements... Guidelines for an affidavit. The affidavit should be as factual as you can make it. Stick to the facts and only the facts. Do not exaggerate. Do not guess at facts. Remember, the penalties of perjury apply to sworn statements. Tell what you can recall and only what you can recall. Give dates as best you can and give names of those involved as best you can, or otherwise descriptions of people as best you can. Be as specific as possible. You can tell what happened to you and what you saw or heard happening to others. For example, if you saw John Doe and Bill Smith take Don White into a timeout room and heard a lot of ensuing screaming, then state that. The affidavit should be typed. If you cannot type get someone to type it for you. At the end of the affidavit you should include a statement like I SWEAR TO THE BEST OF MY MEMORY THAT THESE ARE THE FACTS AS I RECALL THEM. You should sign and date at least two copies (and perhaps three) of your affidavit in the presence of a notary public and give your full printed name and address on the affidavit. (Many banks have a notary on staff who will officiate your documents for like $1 or for no charge at all.) For a 1.00 and some time you can make a HUGE DIFFERENCE and most banks if you have an account with them do it for free.... THIS IS YOUR TIME TO GET INVOLVED"

To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; to leave the world a little better; whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is the meaning of success. --Ralph Waldo Emerson
