>        The senior doesn't say a word, but reaches into his pocket,

>        The lawyer uses his laptop to search all references he can

> 
>        He sends E-mails to all the smart friends he knows; all to no
> avail. After an hour of searching, he finally gives up.
> 
>        He wakes the senior and hands him $500.00. The senior pockets
> the $500.00 and goes right back to sleep.
> 
>        The lawyer is going nuts not knowing the answer. He wakes the

> comes down with four?"
> 
>        The senior reaches into his pocket, hands the lawyer $5.00,

> 
>        You know you're going to send this one on.
>        Don't mess with seniors!
