Self deprecating humor is always funny.
How do you tell when a salesman is lying? If his lips are moving. I'm a salesman, of course.

My sister is a stock broker. I once gave her a little wall plaque that said:
"Stock Broker: def. Someone who invests your money for you until it's all gone." The last time I was in her office, I didn't see it anywhere. She must have misplaced it . . .

Oh, and they only charged me $10 a piece for doing it. At first they said no, but when I pointed out that their guys were sitting around doing nothing, the agreed to do it.
Yaaaa!

I once read in the Economist that the difference between an economist and a CPA is that an economist is an accountant who didn't have the personality to be a CPA.

Well, I have to ask. So, Remotemark, what do you do for a living?

A funny picture just popped into my mind when I read that.
A room full of people drressed in nice suits, holding briefcases. When one approaches the judge, he first has to say, "Hi. I'm so and so, and I'm a lawyer . . . . "

Well, I don't go to court very often, usually only for friends and pro bono matters. I work for a surety company. We guarantee contracts, primarily construction contracts. No timesheets, no billable hours, low-power only.
I'm down to two suits, gave the rest away.

I hardly ever wear suits anymore either. I bought a suit a couple of weeks ago and realized that was the first new suit I've bought in over 25 years. Fortunately, men's clothes don't go out of style as quickly as women's do . . .

Unfortunately, part of the reason some of the suits were given away was because of my growing girth. Having kids in your 40s is not a recipe for eating well or getting to the gym.

I don't have any suits that fit anymore.
I have a nice black camel hair sports jacket and a nice pair of black slacks when formality is required though, like a funeral or a wedding. Tom W

Yeah, my "dress up" wardrobe s mostly sport coats and slacks these days. Occassionally, can be seen wearing a 25-30 year old suit . . . .

X2, they've done an excellent job. $3 extra for lifetime balancing. Not everyone at Walmart is incompetent as some would have you believe.
The tire shops around me want $25-$30 a wheel for 14" rims. I only buy my tires a Tirerack nowadays. Their discount along with $10 mounting/balanceing saves almost $200 bucks on a set of 4 compared to local retail. And oh yes, suits suck.
