hilarious
Ordinarily I would simply provide a link to a recommend post but I can't resist putting this here entirely. It's from trustygetto who turns out to be a lawyer in Michigan. FWIW, I work in a corporate law firm myself. The attorneys in my firm are exceptionally nice, bright and interesting people so I usually loathe lawyer humor. This is a witty exception.
White House announces "No Lawyer Left Standing" Initiative
Impatient with efforts to close the courts to litigants, the Bush Administration literally fired the first shot in its groundbreaking "No Lawyer Left Standing" initiative. Vice-President Cheney, hunting on a private lawyer ranch near Kingsville, Texas, bagged an impressive buck (Harry Whittington, UT Law '50). Under the new program, hunters may take one white shoe in-house lawyer or three outside lawyers daily. The limit has been suspended for trial lawyers.
"We've just got to thin the herd," said the Vice-President. "We've tried tort reform and caps on damages, but people are still suing." Cheney added, "It's easy and fun. In Texas, you can shoot in almost any direction and hit a lawyer."
