And this is one example I like that old joke of "Cruise boat with a trial lawyer party sinks" - Granite Grok

And this is one example I like that old joke of “Cruise boat with a trial lawyer party sinks”

Punch line: "a good start."

I just received an email that said I was a party to a class action suit against Verizon Wireless.  And gee whillikers, Batman, I’m supposed to get me some compensation.  The amount?  Man, a court settlement??  HEY, I MUST BE RICH!  Don’t the winners in a suit against a big mega-company like Verizon mean that little ole me, a plaintiff (even though I knew nothing of the suit) get set up for life?  Man, retirement, here I come!

Oops – I just read the fine print;

current Verizon Wireless customers whose calling plan provides for a specific allowance of minutes as part of their monthly access fee automatically will receive 25 additional wireless calling minutes  

Huh? Must be my mistake – that has to be $24 million…rub, rub, rub my eyes again….no, that was minutes. Let’s see, at my current plan rate that comes to about $1.55.

The lawyers?

…for the Class Representatives in an amount not to exceed $6 million.

Can I read that joke again?

Heh! And is Harrell Kirstein, NH Democrat Party Flakker, gonna try the Political Correctness smack because trial lawyers are integral to the Democrat Party?
