Ya know Jim, I had a feeling that's the kind of guy you were. I have a
lawyer friend who continues to struggle to make ends meet because he refuses
to lie, cheat or steal. I met him when he was doing his pre-bar internship &
he remains true to his heart & upbringing to this day. So there's more than
1 honest lawyer in the USA.....Just on opposite coasts......I wonder if
there's any in-between...Which leads me to my favorite lawyer joke......
What's the difference between a dead rattlesnake & a dead lawyer in the
road?
There's skid marks in front of the rattlesnake.............
Yours in heat,
Paul
