I thought lawyers only hissed.

Judge: Please keep a short leash on your client.

Actually, Estelle, they occasionally rattle when provoked. ;)

MUHAHA! I've only been here a day, too...
Anyway:
"He sued a married couple, Laurette Angsten and KIT KITtle..." might have something to do with the barking.
I wonder if Carl Levine's "home furnishings" are made of denim...

Loved the flash ad on the right.....
"My husband was raised by wolves...."
Do they pay someone to think of these ad placements?

What's the fine for flatulent conduct?

"That's deplorable, unfathomable, improbable. It's totally inappropriate. It's lewd, lascivious, salacious, outrageous, egregious, preposterous!"

"Judge, I deny the allegation and I also deny the allegator."

I am still amazed at the stupidity that goes on. You would think that since the media prints, Dave blogs it, and the PC police are always up in arms over it, even a modicum of self-preservation would occur. But what do I know? 'Specially with all I've said on The WorldWide Blog! ;-)

Fink = most appropriate name for a lawyer, ever?
Posted by: Angie | May 23, 2004 at 07:29 AM
Angie: best name for a law firm:
Dewey, Cheatum and Howe

"Your Honor, this is a very nice deposition...
FOR ME TO POOP ON!"

Instead of a fine they should have given him a flea bath.
Posted by: Lmd33 | May 23, 2004 at 12:51 PM
Jeff: Do you listen to the Tappet Brothers?
Lmd33: The judge should tell Mr. Fink that the next time he comes into his courtroom, he has to wear his law degree on a collar around his neck and bring his own pooper scooper.
Posted by: Jessica | May 23, 2004 at 01:51 PM
Just for the record, the Tapped Brothers rule, and have for many years now.
Posted by: D'Artagnan | May 23, 2004 at 03:18 PM
SIgh..you know...95% of the lawyers out there...
...give the other 5% of us a bad name.
Posted by: She Devil | May 23, 2004 at 11:33 PM
Jeff, my thoughts exactly.
Woob-woob-woob! (nyuk nyuk nyuk nyuk)

Lady: All lawyers are assholes.
Man: I resent that.
Lady: Why, are you a lawyer?
Man: No, I'm an asshole.

There used to be a lawyer who worked right next to my office who had Tourette's. I sure heard some strange sounds, but I don't recall ever hearing a woof.
Posted by: JCT | May 24, 2004 at 10:37 AM
Let us now consider the strange case of all the other lawyers who DON'T bark.
Posted by: jamester | May 24, 2004 at 12:09 PM
A point that is almost lost in all this: he won the case.
"Waiter, some champagne ... and a bowl of kibble for my lawyer!"
