That ought to do it.

NOt really. Not for me.

I've always wanted to know what you think is the very best lawyer joke you've ever heard.

One of the three funniest lawyer jokes I ever heard I can't say on this board.

One of the other two is this: what is the difference between a lawyer and a catfish? One's a bottom feeding scavanger, and the other is just a fish.

My third favorite is this: why did New York City get all the lawyers, and New Jersey all the toxic waste dumps? New Jersey got first pick.

And, back to the topic of this discussion, I, like Rick Warren, am not a Fundamentalist, even though I am theologically conservative. Like Rick Warren, I value engagement whereas fundamentalists tend to be separatists.

The first time I heard this one I almost fell out of my chair:

What is the difference between a catfish and a lawyer?

One is a bottom dwelling scum sucking scavenger...

And the other is a fish.

I don't know if this story is actually true or not, but it was reported that the former CJ of the USSC Rhenquist attended a rather large symposium attended by a large number of prominent attorneys and CEOs of large corporations. His opening remark was reported to be as follows:

"It is an honor for me to speak before such a large and imporatant organization, as I have done in the past. during my previous speach before this organization, I opened with a few lawyer jokes. This time, I will resist the temptation to do so again. The last time, the attorneys didn't appreciate them as being funny at all; and the business executives didn't think they were jokes."
