Give My 'Gator a Lawyer
A man walked into a bar with his alligator and asked the bartender, "Do you serve lawyers here?". "Sure do," replied the bartender. "Good," said the man. "Give me a beer, and my 'gator will have a lawyer."
The patent attorney turns away from his window, the invention in his hand, and exclaims to the inventor: "Death ray my ass! It hardly even slows them down!"
Lawyers and computers have both been proliferating since 1970. Unfortunately, lawyers, unlike computers, have not gotten twice as smart and half as expensive every 18 months.
