On the Lighter Side

Filed under: Random — graingergirl at 12:52 am on Monday, December 24, 2007

I feel like maybe I should not post deep and brooding thoughts all the time. So – to lighten things up a bit, I offer a series of lawyer jokes. Pardon me if you’ve heard them before; and I hope you get a laugh or two. I can poke fun at my own profession – I don’t mind. 🙂

Q: What’s the difference between a lawyer lying dead on the road and roadkill?

A: There are skid marks in front of the roadkill.

Q: Do you know how to save a drowning lawyer?

A: No? Good!

Q: How many lawyers does it take to change a lightbulb?

A: None. They like to keep their clients in the dark.

Q: Why does California have the most attorneys, and New Jersey have the most toxic waste dumps?

A: New Jersey got first pick.

Q: How many lawyer jokes are there?

A: Three. The rest are true.

In all seriousness, I think that law is a noble profession – at least, in most cases, it is. A few rotten apples are out there, but truth be told – I’ve only met a couple of them, but the rest of the lawyers I know are people of strong work ethic, incredible intelligence, dedication to their profession, and they are men and women of integrity. Really. So – laughs aside, I salute my present and future brothers and sisters of the bar – they may make fun of us, but they need us, and when we do our work well, we can really make a difference.
