Lawyers Are Killing Themselves - But Why? - newser.com
"Overworked and burdened by a mix of worries unique to their profession,
lawyers have a growing tendency to kill themselves—and bar associations
are just beginning to grapple with it, CNN reports.
Eight of the nation's 50 associations are trying to stop the pattern
after South Carolina lost six lawyers in an 18-month period, Oklahoma
had a spate of losing one a month, and Kentucky saw 15 commit suicide
since 2010."

Question: What do you call 1000 lawyers at the bottom of the lake?
Answer: A good start!
Sorry! No one should ever joke about suicide, but I think America would be a better place if there were a lot less lawyers.
"As a young lawyer
From the books that I'd read,
I thought justice and law were the same.
But I soon put such juvinile thoughts from my mind,
And I studied the rules of the game!"
