From the Mouths of Old White Lawyer Men

"Everyone lies. It is just who lies the least."

At work last night, an attorney sat down with his wife. This attorney looked familiar, and I instantly knew why. I have had the pleasure of jury duty and it was for an entertaining case, involving a stocky 6 pack a day man with the gout who hurt his knee sliding around in the backseat of a taxicab while holding a hotdog in one hand and an ice cold coke in the other. He wanted over 100k because he could no longer work.

The guy got ZIP.

The attorney I saw last night represented this guy. And HE said, "I represent stupid people."

Well if everyone lies, why didn't Gout Guy have better lies?
