    I think that was a foul.

There is little of all that we do which the eye of man can see. But we smooth out difficulties; we relieve stress; we correct mistakes; we take up other men's burdens and by our efforts we make possible the peaceful life of men in a peaceful state.”

    Do we really though? I'm used to sports boards being populated exclusively with lawyers and accountants (all day in front of a screen); this board seems more diverse.

    Of the top of my head, the only lawyers I can think of are LA, SeattleUTe, Scratch, me, MpFunk, and concerned. I'm sure I'm missing some, but we have a lot of people that have a more interesting life (DevilDog, Diehard, Justin, etc).

    I think we have more engineers than lawyers, but Rocker, U-Ute, Wally and others of their ilk don't want to talk about that. They need scapegoats, and lawyers are perfect for that. It's OK, though; we are used to persecution.

    I'm a lowly b-school grad with a masters in IS, so I don't measure up to the engineers, lawyers or doctors who frequent message boards. You can imagine my parent's disappointment.

    Q: What do you have when you have a lawyer buried in cement up to his neck?

    A: Not enough cement.

    Oddly enough, much to his chagrin, all of my grandfather's sons are engineers.

    Q: How do you tell the difference between a dead skunk lying in the road and a dead lawyer lying in the road?

    A: There are skid marks in front of the skunk.

    Deadspin really dropped the ball there. That was some great trolling by Sen Cruz.
