    Here are some random Aruba shots including one of me on a climbing wall on the beach (couldn't resist that!) with the Caribbean Sea in the background and one of the only person I saw who was whiter than I was.

    I was really trying to get out of shark range, truth be told. I had heard two things that really disturbed me: 1, that there are now mutated sharks with legs that like to hunt on shore and 2, that they can't jump very high. LaDawn thought that I was overdoing it a bit....

    Just to get something straight...I always thought that lawyers were bottom feeders, but land sharks work. I think that I have been buying (or have bought) mine at least a Mercedes 500, European model, the one that they don't import cause it's so badass and costs a fortune...

    So there were these two guys that died at the same time, a lawyer and a bishop. They both end up at heaven's gate talking to St Peter. St Peter sets them up with their new quarters in heaven, putting the bishop in a small basement apartment and the lawyer into a plush house with about everything that you could ask for.

    The bishop was a little upset about this and goes to talk to St Peter.
    What's up with this?, he said. I've dedicated my whole life to serving god and expected something a little better.
    Well, St Peter said, we get a lot of bishops here, but this is the first lawyer we have ever had..

    A blind rabbit and a blind snake met up on the trail.
    What are you? they asked each other .
    Let's touch each other and try to find out.
    The snake feels the rabbit-big ears, fuzzy, little nose, big hind legs.
    You must be a rabbit, he says.
    The rabbit touches the snake-cold, scaly, low to the ground.
    The rabbit thinks for a minute and says, I think that you are a lawyer.

    What do you call 1,000 lawyers in a sinking ship in the middle of an bad Atlantic Ocean storm?
    A good start.

    Here is one of those hypothetical, what would you do scenarios.
    So a guy was walking back from the newsstand with his Sunday paper. He heard someone struggling in the canal next to the path he was on. There is a man in a suit, splashing and trying to crawl up the steep bank, but he kept sliding back into the water. "Help me! I'm a lawyer, I have money, I'll give you whatever you want just save me!!!"

    What would you do first? Read the front page or go right to the comics section?
