I'll concede bubble wrap, but not ice cream. No way in hell lawyers are better than ice cream.Then one day as Steve was putting away the decorations from National Bubble Wrap Day (late January) his thoughts drifted to National Ice Cream Day (late July) and then it struck him. Why not a special day for lawyers? Lawyers are just as good as bubble wrap and ice cream, in fact, they're better. Thus, the idea for NATIONAL BE KIND TO LAWYERS DAY was hatched.

I love these suggestions on how to participate.
* Take your favorite lawyer out to breakfast or lunch (make sure it's not billable!).
* Send your lawyer a "just because" greeting card or a bouquet of flowers.
* Switch your ring tone to the "dah-dah" sound from NBC's "Law & Order."
* Abstain from telling lawyer jokes for 24 hours.
* If you can't abstain, tell your funniest lawyer joke but switch out the lawyer with your profession. (I bet it's still funny.)
* If you accidentally say something wrong or inappropriate on this day, just follow it up with the words, "Strike that from the record." Then continue talking as if nothing happened.
* Salute the flag as you walk or drive by your local courthouse.
* Buy something cool at: www.TheBillableHour.com.
* Watch your favorite legal drama and pretend you're the one delivering the powerful closing argument. Some suggested films: "The Verdict," "To Kill A Mockingbird," "A Few Good Men" and "With Justice For All."
* Do some simple repairs around the house with a gavel instead of your trusty hammer.
* Try to slip words like "I object!" or "You're out of order!" into your everyday conversations.
* Try to write up your own Articles of Organization for an LLC or draft your own will. See, it's harder than it looks.
* Take notes at a meeting on a legal pad. Don't you just feel smarter looking at the glorious yellow hue of that 8-1/2" x 14" pad?τὸν ἥλιον ἀνατέλλοντα πλείονες ἢ δυόμενον προσκυνοῦσινComment

Until you need a good one to save your butt.....Lawyers in America get a lot of grief...just for being lawyers. Jokes are made about them and they consistently rank as one of the least respected professions on the planet."Wuap's "problem" is that he is smart & principled & committed to a moral course of action. His actions are supposed to reflect his ethical code.
The rest of us rarely bother to think about our actions." --SolonComment

Just being honest. Maybe they will make one up for you next year."The first thing I learned upon becoming a head coach after fifteen years as an assistant was the enormous difference between making a suggestion and making a decision."
"They talk about the economy this year. Hey, my hairline is in recession, my waistline is in inflation. Altogether, I'm in a depression."
"I like to bike. I could beat Lance Armstrong, only because he couldn't pass me if he was behind me."
