The Best Lawyer in the Land
Once there was a cerebral man named J.H. Slugerth who ran a big company called Slugerth and Co. At this company they made all sorts of wonderful things such as lollypops, gummy bears, and shaving cream. Some people didn’t like how Slugerth used the exact same recipe for shaving cream as their own only reiterated to sound different because they had made it first, initially Slugerth said that it was a coincidence but they brought up the incident with one of their employees reporting directly to Slugerth. Slugerth had an answer to this accusing them of seditious behavior but I will not bore you with the details. Slugerth was sued for a lot of money and an injunction to stop making shaving cream, the money he planned to use for corporate bonuses (or as he said, to give initiative to his employees) so he called a big meeting. Slugerth set three of his best executives out with one mission, to find the best lawyer in the land. The first executive was very rich and egocentric, he went off on a plane to the far off land of Greece where he went to a far away cave. He was told that a woman lived in that cave that could stop anyone stone cold with a glance and that she had a tongue like a snake’s. He went through a big door and found a big barren room filled with amazing statues lying prostrate. He tripped over one of a man who looked much like him and realized that he was wearing a stone jacket with a stone I.D. card in it from a rival company. In the center was a woman with a bonnet and sunglasses, He asked her if she was the lawyer and she told him she was. He offered her a ridiculous amount of money to win him the court case which she accepted right off the bat “before we go I’d like to have a picture of you” she said. The executive agreed and as he was posing adjacent to a statue he realized that there was a snake poking out of her bonnet but then there was a flash and he was a stone statue. The second executive was a jocular man who thought he was the best in his department. He thought that he might be able to find a good lawyer in Bermuda so off he went. He entered a place known as the Bermuda Triangle and before he knew it there was a white light and he woke up on top of a tall mountain four weeks after the trial, feeling doubt over if aliens had really abducted him. The last Executive was a young man who had recently been promoted, he went far and wide until he was tired and hungry, and he was about to eat his last hunk of filet mignon when a Chihuahua looked up at him and yapped in a high female voice, “Are you going to want that?” The man was so surprised he handed the meat to the dog and watched as it gobbled it down. He could see that it was not terribly well fed so he handed it a shot of Iturut-Subula-Stein, lightly acidic, full bodied, and dry. The dog liked it so he offered it some La Romanée Conti with a hint of Pétrus, after trading favorite wines they became fast friends. The next day over cups of Ethiopian black coffee and scones the young Executive explained his predicament. “I think our fates must be enjoined, I might be just the gal for you,” said the Chihuahua whose name was Rosita “I was cursed by a mad Curandero after I couldn’t win his court case and took the form of a Chihuahua until the day I will be kissed by prince charming, I’ll work for you and win you the case for a kiss” “You’re on!” said the young man and that day they booked a flight for New York where they were shocked to find that they were the only ones who had made it back. There was a long trial which they won by a frog’s hair breadth. After the jubilations the young man and Rosita had a magical kiss in which she transformed into her true self. The man turned to stone reverted to his old self along with the many other victims of Medusa. Everyone was so jovial that they convinced J.H. Slugerth to start a new brand of candy, they called it the “Carmel Apple” and it is still enjoyed today.
