Congrats to John, on his graduation.
But there is the small matter of the Bar Exam before he can claim membership in the Sheysterhood. LOL

True - he'll get that in July. Then he will be a full blooded snake. |

Lawyers are usually people with pretty good sense. Judging from the bike he's sitting on, I'd bet he rates at the top of his class. Congrats.

Hey Rainmaker , a big congrats to you and your family  and to your son's hard work .... I know first hand when my daughter-in-law graduated from UT Law school a few yrs ago , so proud to have our own Shark in the family.... Hey Mark , you know why sharks don't bite lawyers ? because they don't bite their own kind  Thanks the Geezer  |

Alright!!! Free legal advice I don't believe you can use the words "free" and "lawyer" in the same sentence. Congrats to both John and Proud Papa. In honor of this momentous occasion, I suggest we all offer up a good lawyer joke. I'll go first. What do you call 1000 lawyer on the bottom of the sea? A good start! |

Congrats to both John and RM!!!! You mean there really is such a thing as graduation? I'm beginning to wonder. L
Everybody else is telling their lawyer jokes. Might as well join in.
You know the difference between a lawyer and a catfish. One is a scum sucking bottom dweller, the other one is a fish!!
OK, lest RM has a heart attack and get angry with me ---- How many chiropractors does it take to change a light bulb? Just one, but it takes 29 visits!! Luv u bro. L

Congrats on the great accomplishment.
My son graduates LSU Law school in May but will be taking the bar in Texas.
Ok, now for my lawyer joke.
Do you know the difference between a dead lawyer in the road and a dead skunk in the road??
There are skid marks in front of the skunk....

What a great day! John wore his senior boots and spurs from the Corps of Cadets for the ceremony and you could hear his taps and a few "whoops" from the audience as he crossed the stage. Grandpa says it was the 2nd best day of his life. Thanks to all for the great jokes and congratulations - I've already used some of the jokes while we were at the reception after the ceremony and picked up a few more as well!  This is John receiving his diploma from Judge Kenneth Starr (yes, THAT Ken Starr), President of Baylor University (on the right) and Scott Brister, Former Justice, Supreme Court of Texas (on the left)  John and my beautiful bride and proud mamma Margaret after the ceremony.  John and proud pappa Mark.  John and his brother Andy "whooping" together  John and Grandpa George celebrate, with proud mama Margaret in the foreground.  The motto of Baylor Law School. |
