What's the Difference Between a Banker and a Lawyer?
Here's the answer (which may relate to our recent post about wombats). From Miss Victoria X, via our sibling site, Dealbreaker:
Inspired by the example of the generous Hamptons-based design firm which is now offering its stagings service at a discounted price to current/former/soon to be former Bear Stearns employees (staging is cleaning and prepping a house to be shown for sale), I have decided to offer a discount on sessions to all current/former/soon to be former Bear Stearns employees. The discount is equivalent to the current value of a share of Bear Stearns stock. That is to say, $2.I approached this decision with some trepidation. You see, in my experience finance guys usually want things in their asses. I do not offer anal play on demand. Consequently the majority of my clients are lawyers.
Over at Dealbreaker, the commenters had some interesting reactions:
"One of the few times I'm actually glad I chose law instead of finance . . .""lawyers already take it up the ass on a daily basis from bankers, so they probably get their fill in the office."
"so what? a chick's tongue up there is a wondrous thing."
That last comment was posted by Eliot Spitzer.

If you think a chick's tongue is wondrous up there, you should try a wombat's!

The difference: lawyers get a significantly lower salary and annoying colleagues, in exchange for a much greater deal of job security and less stratification

Recently the government announced that each of us would be getting rebate checks which we are supposed to spend to improve the economy.
If we spend that money at Walmart, most of it will go to China . If we spend it on gasoline, most will go to the Arabs and if we spend it on new computers most will go to India, or Pakistan for tech support and almost none will help the American economy.
The way I see it, we need to keep that money in America, and the best way to do that is spend it on the only two business still here: beer and prostitution.
Sincerely,
Eliot Spitzer

This anal stuff you've been posting recently doesn't belong on ATL.

The other day my evidence professor said a monopoly is like anal interourse--neither happens on accident.

11:08 nailed it. You need to create a new site called ATM.
