William Shakespeare wrote, "The first thing we must do is kill all the lawyers," in King Henry VI. Well I am certainly not saying we should resort to violence of that sort, but I am amused to the point of being fed-up. I have several friends who are attorneys and they are fine upstanding, reasonable people but..... We need some common sense in the world.

They used to say the only certain things in life were death and taxes. I'll submit if you wait a moment or two you'll see someone will sue someone else over something silly. We’ve become overly litigious.
Have you heard about the who woman sued for mental distress because she didn’t buy a winning lottery ticket? In fact, she didn’t buy a ticket at all. But her neighbor did and won. She did not win so she sued for “emotional blackmail” and is demanding that she be paid an equal share.

HELLO???

Then there is the law suit against a dry cleaners for losing a mans pants. The courts need to sentence him to be slapped for wasting their time. The cleaner should give him a sixty bucks and send him to J.C. Penney.

Please !!!

As Don Henley so lyrically put it :

I turn on the tube and what do I see
A whole lotta people cryin’ ’don’t blame me’
They point their crooked little fingers ar everybody else
Spend all their time feelin’ sorry for themselves
Victim of this, victim of that
Your momma’s too thin; your daddy’s too fat

All this whinin’ and cryin’ and pitchin’ a fit
Get over it, get over it
