Apparently, not all lawyers have to go to school to practice law
Maybe that's why they say they are just practicing

This might be slightly off the thread but it reminds me of a couple of responses on applications for employment I have reviewed.
How long at your last residence?.....(response)..80 feet.
Reason for leaving last employer?...(response)..Stabbed the foreman.
Position last held?.....(response)..Third base but can play the outfield.
MR...MRS..or MZ.....(response)..You are not allowed to discriminate on a gender basis.
Sex?....(response)..Only when she says it's o.k.
There are some more but I can't remember them all.
