Two years ago today, on May 8th 2006, lawyers from Fasken Martineau, a prestigious and expensive law firm in Canada unleashed Operation: Douchebag.

The venerable law firm’s pricey lawyers sent a bailiff over to my old house - which I had not lived at for about 2 years - with about 1,000 sheets outlining why I was the reincarnation of Judas.

Two years ago tonight, I was clueless and naive about the tornado that was lurking around the corner.

Unbeknownst to me at the time, that stack of papers sat at my old home… the next day, I would be getting a knock on our office doors; a knock that would usher what was arguably the turning point of my professional career, definitely the greatest lesson any entrepreneur can learn, the defining challenge of my life and the watershed moment that would ultimately shape what is WatchMojo.com today and what would make the success we now experience all that sweet.

Why was I being sued? Who was Fasken Martineau representing? Why was I being made out to be Judas?

Come back tomorrow for details of what went down on May 9th 2006: David vs. Goliath Part II, The First Act.
