It happened this week to the founders of a group called Americans for Legal Reform, who were waiting in line to get into a Long Island courthouse.

“How do you tell when a lawyer is lying?” Harvey Kash reportedly asked Carl Lanzisera. “His lips are moving,” they said in unison.

While some waiting to get into the courthouse giggled, a lawyer farther up the line Monday was not laughing.

He told them to pipe down, and when they did not, the lawyer reported the pair to court personnel, who charged them with disorderly conduct, a misdemeanor.

2. a divorced guy was giving a priest a lift in his car

the divorced guy had been fleeced by his wife's team of lawyers and they left him almost penniless. Along the way the guy spotted three of the lawyers walking down the road. He hated the buggers and instinctively turned the wheel with the intention of running the lawyers down. At the last minute he swerved away thinking "there's a man of cloth in the passenger seat...I can't commit murder with him in the car". Just as he sped past the lawyers there was a thump and looking in the mirror he saw the three lawyers bowling down the street then coming to a halt in a pile of shattered limbs. "I was sure I was going to miss them" said the driver. "Don't worry, I got the evil buggers with the passenger door" said the priest.
