I shudder to think what we might soon become without lawyers

If you are an attorney, you are way too full of yourself. Otherwise you would have a better understanding of what most people think of attorneys and more importantly, why. If you are not an attorney, you need to get out more.

Well, I'm indebted to one helpful Freeper who recently shared with me a story which might help put all this in perspective:

One afternoon, a wealthy lawyer was riding in the back of his limousine when he saw two pathetic men eating grass by the road side. He ordered his driver to stop and he got out to investigate, and asked, "Why are you eating grass ?"

"We don't have money for food," the first man replied.

"Oh, well, you can come with me to my house," insisted the lawyer.

"But, sir, I got a wife and three kids here."

"Bring them along !" replied the lawyer.

"But how about my friend ?"

The lawyer turned to the other man and said, "You come with us, too."

"But, sir,! I got a wife and six kids !"

"Bring them as well !" answered the lawyer as he headed for his limo.

They all climbed into the car, and once underway, one of the poor fellows says: "Sir, you are too kind. Thank you for taking all of us with you."

The lawyer replied, "Glad to do it. You'll love my place. The grass is almost a foot tall."
