Can you imagine what the construction of King Solomon's Temple would have been like? All those workmen comps laws. Heck, imagine how different our third degree would be if they had been mirandaized.AU Poli Sci Guyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05140737364832442462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2521156856913693008.post-71477979575413751432009-01-07T17:06:00.000-06:002009-01-07T17:06:00.000-06:00Thanks for all the kind? words. Maybe I should have titled this post, Lawyers Jokes. ;) Hehehehe<BR/><BR/>PB,<BR/>Maybe you are right. I can't imagine what my liver would like under those conditions. :)<BR/><BR/>Steve,<BR/>Not the Rule Against Perpetuities, my brain hurts. Let's see, the grant of estate cannot exceed 21 years after a life in being minus the number of feet in a family times the age of the youngest tree on the property plus how many children the fertile octogenarian has after the age of 80?

I did it in just one evening. Well...I am fibbing a bit. It look me an evening and two or three very early hours of a morning.<BR/><BR/>After that, though - and after partaking of large amounts of a brewed beverage along with several-few shots of something-another, I was a member of that Bar.<BR/><BR/>Let me warn you. If you're going to take two months to do what I did in one night - you are going to have one 'ell of a hangover.<BR/><BR/>Good luck to you.The Palmetto Bughttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08049500796697782077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2521156856913693008.post-46863132131234606502009-01-07T12:02:00.000-06:002009-01-07T12:02:00.000-06:00Nick; take the time you need. <BR/><BR/>You will be fine, and so will the blog and Lodge. If you need help - please call me! <BR/><BR/>You were missed last night, we had the Traveling Mentors/Mentees from Lebanon Lodge come by - quite a fine group of guys!<BR/><BR/>We will catch up later. Remember that doggone RAP.<BR/><BR/>(For those readers lucky enough to have not gone to law school, that is the Rule Against Perpetuity - a favorite arcane and inane property law rule)<BR/><BR/>And be prepared for the lawyer jokes to roll in. You know what a single sperm cell and an attorney have in common? Both have a one in two million chance of being a viable human some day...<BR/><BR/>Talk to you later... ...I gotta go pay my attorney license fee.<BR/><BR/>SteveStevehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06911288320926977981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2521156856913693008.post-85225989638729089432009-01-07T08:56:00.000-06:002009-01-07T08:56:00.000-06:00Another lawyer, eh?<BR/>:sighs:<BR/><BR/>A judge in a small city was hearing a drunk-driving case and the defendant, who had both a record and a reputation for driving under the influence, demanded a jury trial.<BR/><BR/>It was nearly 4:00 p.m. and getting a jury would take time, so the judge called a recess and went out in the hall looking to impanel anyone available for jury duty. He found a dozen lawyers in the main lobby and told them that they were a jury. The lawyers thought this would be a novel experience and so they followed the judge back to the courtroom.<BR/><BR/>The trial was over in about 10 minutes and it was very clear that the defendant was guilty. The jury went into the jury room, the judge started getting ready to go home, and everyone waited. After nearly three hours, the judge was totally out of patience and sent the bailiff into the jury room to see what was holding up the verdict.<BR/><BR/>When the bailiff returned, the judge said, "Well have they got a verdict yet?"<BR/><BR/>The bailiff shook his head and said, "Verdict? They're still doing nominating speeches for the foreman's position!"Tom Accuostihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07005315193581153959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2521156856913693008.post-61396846650603368472009-01-06T23:59:00.000-06:002009-01-06T23:59:00.000-06:00Boooooo, please don't go...<BR/><BR/>I hope to still see you Sundays on MC!<BR/><BR/>Good luck bro, take all the time you need, and do well.
