So said the smart talk back in 1916.
For an out-of-work lawyer pickings were lean.

Lovely piece of poetry. Enjoyed the tint of humour. Especially in the closing lines. Marvellous.5 *s
Maybe the judge should have quit being chicken and smell something fishy. A fish is a fish... Until-it's an eaten dish. Have no bones to pick here... Another spicey fare, is doe or deer. When is a deer not a deer? ... When it is a tractor, hear? Did you hear about the genie who got rubbed the wrong way? ... He wasn't in the mood to play. God bless all poets-MJG.
No worse than the fathers of the church deciding barnacle geese were fish and could be eaten on Fridays. The law as always proves to be an ass
The Law is a burro and the burro is a venerable and an important and a sublimely stubborn Ass; our saving grace actually, when conducted with humility, albeit forced.
Interesting indeed! My friend I've just learned something. Thanks.
I was drawn by the title of this, and it has turned out to be a fascinating read and also very informative, very good work indeed.
I cannot believe that comments about a fishe's trial has not been commited to this site...I enjoy the sport of fishing and it's watery dripping, wetish fights.How about the tale about the one that got away? At the end of the 'not catching anything wasted day'.With hands and arms spread apart in an exagerated motion...While lying and fibbing is the 'whopper that size'alibied notion.The truth would not be recognized by that old fellow tellin that tale...It's now so old and tiredly stale.I once thought a Mullet was just a lower classed type of hair cut or style...If you had told me that it was a fish, i'd probably not accept that concept but with only a verbal denial. Do you know what you'll have if you try to catagorize this thing you you've caught and now see? ...It will be named and known as 'Chicken of the Sea'. Hey Sidi! This was a very good poem...I love it when an artist or author's imagination can experimently wander, tinker and roam.Imagery is the paint that the artist just throws at his canvas. Congrats! You have just painted another master piece. A wonderful reading has just crossed my path. I just love it when that happens. Please keep up the good work and God bless and best regards-Mike Gale.
When court is closed, the people are safe. And Knot. Quite the fishy conundra.
What a propitious introduction to this miraculous web neighborhood. Thank you. After forty years of daily pursuing justice for some pretty fishy ne'er do wells (the 2nd highest mitzvah I'm told) I am home again.
