| On Friday morning I'm off for a long (pronounced loooooooooooooooooooooooong) weekend with my wife and children (fine) and my golf obsessed brother-in-law (the NY lawyer), my sister -in-law, my mother-in-law and my grandmother-in-law.
Don't anybody tell me that life is fair. |

I sure don't need something as per-snickity as golf. Talk about the devil being in the details! |

What's a thousand lawyers burried in sand up to their necks?
And the two lawyers standing on a street corner watching this young shapely blond walk by and one says to the other, "Man I'd really like to f#@k her" and the other says "Out of what?" |

| I love this stuff.
I don't dislike lawyers particularly, and I don't dislike golf (tho I've never played it) - with me and the b-i-l it's strictly personal. And as to my m-i-l......
grandma-in-law is the best of the bunch.
Y'all have a nice weekend now, ya hear? |

What's the difference between a dead dog in the road and a dead lawyer in the road? Skid marks in front of the dog.
Did you know that the Bar association has a rule against their members being gigilos? They don't want people getting charged twice for essentially the same service. |

Location: Earth·SolarSystem·LocalInterstellarCloud·Local Bub | In North Carolina, a lawyer purchased a very expensive box of cigars and had them insured for full replacement value. A number of months later he submitted a claim with his insurer stating that the cigars were lost in a series of small fires.
The insurance company caught on-- and refused to pay the claim. The lawyer took them to court and though the presiding Judge acknowledged the spurilous nature of the suit...on the technical merits of the case the finding was that it was a legitimate claim and the insurance company was ordered to pay.
After the claim was paid, the insurance company had the lawyer arrested on Arson charges. The lawyer was found guilty, heavily fined and served a short time in jail. |

How can you tell if a lawyer is well hung?
You can't get a finger between the rope and his neck! |

| I survived the weekend - look for a sharp increase in Guinness profits this year. The jokes kept me going - W2, your "Out of what?" joke is the funniest joke I've heard in a long time. Even the NY lawyer laughed. (Man those guys are easy to get drunk).
The (im)moral support was appreciated. |

Yoy shoot the lawyer twice. I thought you shoot bin Laden twice, then use the empty gun to club the lawyer to death! |

He should be hung by the parts that make him think he is attractive to the opposite sex. Very seldom would that be his scrawney neck.
I admire any judge who says "Hung by the scrotum at dawn and left there till he dies!!" |

Location: Las Cruces, NM | Hung by a rope fashioned from his wallet and the contents therin, looped around the scrotum and the remainder determining the distance he shall fall (insert the formula for acceleration at the proper altitude here). The leather shall be wound around the neck with enough slack to allow the sight of his castration prior to his asphixiation. (U.S.C. 14ever8hisend) |
