The cash for strippers. The money that buys the Grove Isle condo, the 911, the BMW 760, the boat all of which impress to no end the 26 year old 3L who likes the weekends in Vegas, the five days in Paris, the restaurants, the clubs, the parties.

Why do we do what we do? Duh....

WHat other 53 year old guy has this life?

We do it for the heartfelt thanks we get from our clients.

We do it for the respect that lawyers get in society.

Rumpole, you never publicize the FACDL CLEs. What happened?

Rumpole said...

BST (bloggers stick together)

We do it because the judges are soo pleasant life would be miserable without them

Anonymous said...

We do it for God because he apparently is the reason behind our success. Ever win a trial? Of course you didn't. God won that trial. Just ask your client and his family.

We do it because the best place for coffee is ABP.

We do what we do to stick it to THE MAN!

The coffee ar ABP is markedly subpar and not drinkable. I prefer a single bean brew, cold filtered is a must , from one of three or four private farms at the 6300-8300 altitude range outside of San Paulo. Anything else is proletariate swill.

For the chicks.

And lest I forget the milk is organic from the Lesterfield farms in Vermont whose cows chew an organic moss based cud. Any other milk is white trash. The milk blends subtly yet devinely with the coffee so long as it is added when the coffee is exactly at 103.5 degrees Anything else is subpar starbucks swill.

Wonderful. The two most obnoxious guys in the courthouse.

We do it for the courthouse hot dogs.

We do it to work in Allapattah.

Rumpole said...

You know in over 25 years I have never purchased a hot dog from one of the vendors. I represented a particular fetching one in the mid 80's when they used to arrest and hassel them.

We do it for all the Courthouse gossip...whether true or not.

We do it because we owe alimony. We owe alimony because we worked so much our wives left us. We then had to pay two divorce attorneys, so we have to work more. Luckily we have insurance to pay the mortuary, otherwise it would never end.

Thanks Rumpole for promoting the events for FACDL. I am going to send them to you directly next time.

Rumpole said...

Remove the name of the third fake person which is a supremely derogatory comment about someone we all know, and I will post it.

Word of the day guys said...

"pompous fofo sobe dandy" is about the slickest put down we've seen on this blog. It is biting, pity, and does the job in four vicious words.

Dandy- in this context a Dandy is defined as s a man who places particular importance upon physical appearance, refined language, and leisurely hobbies, pursued with the appearance of nonchalance in a cult of Self.

foofoo- most urban dictionaries agree that foofoo is commonly understood as an adjective describing something that is very pretty or cute but has no real utilitarian value. Something that is nice to look at but serves no other purpose.

sobe is south beach.

pompous- in this context the word is best defined as having or exhibiting self-importance.

Word to the wise- the assassin who shot you down in four lethal words is a professional. Don't mess with him. His is a silent killer, and the knife is in and out before you know you're dead.

Thank god someone broke that down and explained it. It was so complex.

That's why I do this job, so I can hang around really smart people.

Bel-Imperia said...

For the record, the "chicks" are not impressed with any of you. The majority of you are discussing plea agreements before the information is filed in the case.

Anonymous at 5:55 PM sounds pretty accurate. For some reason, the "brilliant" legal minds in Miami don’t advocate prenups (somewhat baffling). And the petty courthouse gossip is usually unsubstantiated and unwarranted. That you would do it for the "gossip" is is sufficiently pathetic.

9:23 AM: You're not sticking it to THE MAN. I'm pretty confident THE MAN is sticking it to you.

Rumpole said...

you comment trashed so many dead people that I think you set a record. But I still did not post it. Let the dead rest in peace.

Anonymous said...

I hope you are compiling all these unacceptable comments, to be released upon your death.

I'm dying to read some of them!
