There are GOOD bacteria that live in your intestines and help you digest food. Sometimes we even take pills called Phillip's Colon Health, Align, or other brands of Pro-biotics to encourage bacterial growth. Then there are other bacteria which are BAD for us, including but not limited to Cholera, Staph, and Strep.
I suppose the same thing could be said about the LEGAL profession, and like in bacteria, the good/bad line is not distinct. Of course, if we had no lawyers, we would probably be up to our buttocks in lead paint and Benzene would fill the air, so like bacteria that clean our environment, they serve a useful purpose. Then there are the GOOD ones whose work always seems to be less ICKY that the heavily advertising personal injury folks. Then there's that guy with Mesothelioma on TV. So next time you see an ambulance racing to an accident, look for the second car in the parade, from 1-800-ASKsomebody, or the representatives from the law firm of Dewey, Cheetem, and Howe. Ask yourself if society could find an antibiotic to stamp out this "dis-ease." Either that, or just take more frequent showers and be grateful that the Yellow Pages would no longer make a good booster seat for your toddler if they removed all the Lawyer ads.
