I will never forget. Years before I went back to law school, back when I was a long haired musician I was called for a jury and my day job was as a bill collector for American Express. I was asked the question "So you can tell whether a person is lying?" to which I responded "Whether they are lying is irrelevant; what's relevant is whether they've paid the bill."
How's that for a lawyer answer from a rocker?
