Joe: Hey, lawyer dude, I need some representation
Lawyer: what do you want me to represent
Joe: This
Lawyer: okay, that's going to cost you this much
Joe: cool, what are my chances
Lawyer: Somewhere between 0 and 1, BTW that just cost you $5,000
Joe: Dang, okay, make it happen, let's not waste any more
Lawyer: Right: I'm off, doing what you asked me to do (that's another $5,000)
(some time later)
Lawyer: hey we tried, sorry about that here's my final bill($5,000,000)
Joe: but why didn't you tell me I'd lose
Lawyer: I did, I said somewhere between 0 and 1.. it turned out to be 0, but it
would have been well cool if we'd got 1 (BTW that's another $5,00)
Joe: I'm blowing you off, and I'm going to sue you
Lawyer: okay, go ahead, you better hire a lawyer though (BTW that's another
$5,000).
Goto 1;
With due apologies and respect to all lawyers reading.....
