I was just reading a story on how Linux jobs are growing. Forget that, as it seems the bulletproof career option is to become a lawyer. There are a whole lot of people who are willing to spend endless money to sue other people. I'm thinking you don't even have to be good at it, just persistent, like a yappy little dog.

If this keeps up, at some point somebody's going to run a spreadsheet analysis of the costs of an untraceable contract hit against a patent troll versus litigation or capitulation, weigh the moral issues and conclude that patent trolls are a parasitic life-form like lice, and opt for the pragmatic solution. Soon thereafter, some soldier-of-fortune types will have websites put up on offshore servers offering to counter barratry with barrettry.

My youngest memories of wondering about what work to do, I thought being a plumber would be pretty fool-proof.
Then I found out what sewage is.
Lawyer sounded good, then I found out what sewage is.

I Like it. It's evident that there are lawyer jokes I still haven't heard.
Of course, it's not evident that was actually a joke...

Well, I can remember one lawyer joke that I heard quite a while back:
Question: What's the difference between a dead snake lying in the road and a dead lawyer lying in the road?
Answer: There are skid marks leading up to the snake's corpse.

Ok,... If you folks are going to start telling lawyer jokes,... Both me and Dino have to be in here....
I'm sorry, I did not mean to start anything. I was actually speaking the simple truth, save for the last word which I substituted for "the cr@p that lawyers do". It seemed apt.

Dino's been noticeably absent much of the time lately. Must be that thing they call "real life" interfering.
