Cheers for Lawyers (on this board, anyway)

Hey, it's national Law Day, 2005. News to me, but I guess that's why they have special days. Everyone take a minute and hug their favourite lawyer.

Law Day

i'd like to but it will cost $100 an hour.

Hahahahaha!!! Seriously though, cheers to StoneMtn and any other lawyers on the board. I hope I never require your services.

[StoneMtn]

100 bucks an hour? You're getting a good deal!

National Law Day? I had no idea.

Thanks guys, and Cheers to MoMack down in T.O.!

To the man who has saved me hundreds, perhaps thousands in retainer fees, and who has shared many an adventure with me: Cheers. No lawyer jokes today.

Oh, and you still owe me for saving your financial ass back in the summer of '91.

[StoneMtn]

I do? I have no doubt that is true, having been a dumbass undergrad student back then, but I honestly have no recollection.

(In fairness, I also don't remember what I had for breakfast today...)

A man walked into a lawyer's office and inquired about the lawyer's rates.

"$50.00 for three questions," replied the lawyer.

"Isn't that awfully steep?" asked the man.

"Yes," the lawyer replied.

"Now," the lawyer continued, "what was your third question?"

[Velvet]

Is there a smiley face for having my jaw dropped on the floor in utter disbelief and astonishment?!?!?

I am shocked that you don't recall. You once told me that I will forever be one of the best people in the world because of what I did for you.

Let us never speak of this on the internet again.

[StoneMtn]

Well, as you know, I do regard you as one of the best people in the world.

I suppose that I might hold that belief as a result of what occurred 14 years ago, so, if I said that (which I probably did) then I have made good on that promise; I simply didn't remember why.

(BTW: I actually do think I know what happened back then and how you helped me, and you're correct - we will not discuss it online. I have only a foggy memory of it, but I think I have pieced it together.)

As well, I am sure you will agree that it is astounding I would even remember a single thing from back then; based on my lifestyle at the time...

wow it's like you're 'lawyering up' even as you type

[StoneMtn]

I don't know how to type any other way.
