My Pet Lawyer
Harry Truman said "If you want a friend in Washington, get a dog!" And of course America is patiently waiting to see what breed of dog the Obama family will pick out (right now it is between a labradoodle and a Portuguese Water Hound) and bring to the White House.
But a Southern California-based gift manufacturer, Billable Hours Unlimited, Ltd., has a different idea of a pet for the Obama family. A small, hairless part-pit-bull-part-shark, remote-controlled lawyer current, toy named "My Pet Lawyer." The company figures "why mess around with toy poodles when you can have a pet that's not only White House-broken but that's already been endorsed by the American Bar Association Journal as a 'must have toy' for the lawyer who has everything!"
“My Pet Lawyer” laughs, growls, has flashing eyes and mouth and has nine prerecorded messages from "You talkin' to me, sharkbait?!" to "Pro Bono? Never heard of him!" The company says that when you adopt "My Pet Lawyer," you also get to personalize him by recording anything you want him to say (or even sing) at the push of a button. You could even adopt a whole "firm" of Pet Lawyers and have them singing harmonies together.
Something tells me the Obama girl's would prefer a real dog...

You've got to be kidding! Thanks for this story, you just gave me a great idea for some fun gag gift-giving and National "Law Day" is right around the corner in May!
