Innocent, Your Honor delivers colorful characters and twisted tales from "Lawyer of Arabia" to aspiring attorneys ("I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die. After that, law school was pretty much a given."), and from a mythical past (the contract Hercules signed to be unchained: "she gets the house, the chariot, and custody of the kids. You get to keep the lion skin."), to a terrifying future (in which "everyone will be an attorney for fifteen minutes.") Shanahan's new book featuring 125 catoons on lawyers and legal matters is the perfect gift for anyone involved in the legal profession or with an upcoming day in court.
B-rad PT said So incredibly not funny.. I consider myself a person with a decent sense of humor. This book is just simply not very funny.. "Too true to be funny, but ." according to Stepinit. Most of the cartoons are too true to be funny, but a couple are worth the price of the book alone! Anyone who's had a tangle with the legal system may not see the funny side of what happened to them, but would you rather laugh than cry? I'd rather laugh. Lesson learned.. "Anti-funny" according to williamr. Not a funny cartoon in the whole book! 80% NOT funny, 20% STUPID! Gave it to my Anti-funny Not a funny cartoon in the whole book! 80% NOT funny, 20% STUPID! Gave it to my 3yr. old grandson for a coloring book!! Total WASTE of time!!!. yr. old grandson for a coloring book!! Total WASTE of time!!!
