Do you remember FANTASY ISLAND?

Where people pay to have their fantasy?

I told a friend I would love to hunt politicians!

He said, new ones will crop up.

I said I will have another fantasy!

Where do you think lawyers get their ideas? From their clients. And of course from statutes that legislatures passed, and from common law that Judges dreamed up. Lawyers are innocent victims.
