AW-now you done gone and hurt my feelings.

JOHN THURSTON
ATTY.

You know how I tell that non lawyers are smarter than Attorneys?

They all practice on their own and they never had to pay law school tuition.

A remark made by Judge White (Plymouth Superior Ct.) comes to mind, I was sitting in motion session and a guy was trying to represent himself on a fairly complex matter:

White, J.: "I'd sooner recommend to you that you perform brain surgery on yourself-be back in one week with an Attorney or your toothbrush".

The Guy started looking around the courtroom, asks if I am an an Attorney:
Answer: "NO-not today."

All lawyers jokes accepted in relatively good humour.

John,

It's nice to know there are other attorneys willing to share in the humiliation on these forums.

Bill,

My own favorite is how many lawyers does it take to screw in a light bulb. Answer: How many can you afford?

So, Bill, is it true there are only four kinds of doctors:

There is the surgeon who knows nothing but does everything,

The psychiatrist who knows nothing and does nothing,

The internist, who knows everything, but does nothing,

and the pathologist, who knows everyting and does everything, but it's a day late.

I am not sure where the medical researcher fits into this scheme.

Peace

It's difficult to respond to all this flattery, but I would appreciate one thing: I need those that submitted jokes over the inernet of this type to supply Addresses for
Return of Service of Process.

Oh Wait-my partner tells me that makimg me laugh out loud and blow chunks is not a cause of action.

Oh well, just refer them to "Doc U Pro".

John:

Of course you have a cause of action, and your partner may also have one if when you blow chunks he is in the "Zone of Danger."

Speaking of zone of danger, how do you know you are in a zone of danger, the person next to you is wearing a white coat and has M.D. embroidered after his/her name.

Peace.
