Oh the Irony
Yesterday, on the same day that we received approval from the State Bar advertising review committee for our new personal injury website, I met with a new business client of the law firm.
So what? one might ask. Well, sometimes ordinary events in life are more humorous than we would expect. The new client is one of the largest businesses of its type in the metropolitan Houston area. Well that isn't humorous or ironic, is it?
Let's see, what kind of company would add some flavor to this story? Maybe you guessed it already: an ambulance company. Okay, you may not see the humor or the irony in the story, but I know that my joint venture partners and I will enjoy a big laugh about this when I tell them the story.

Oh my goodness! That honestly has me laughing my backside off! I can't even think of any thing to say without busting out laughing!

We had one person suggest (tongue in cheek, of course) that we should put a huge business card on the inside top of each ambulance. Talk about ambulance chasing.

Many years back, a movie called Brain Donors came out. It was pretty much a tribute/rip off of the Marx Brothers. But it starts with an attorney chasing an ambulance down the road. That's the first thing I think of when I read this thread. The second thing I think of is Paul Newman in The Verdict.
I still can't even type some of the more interesting things I think of to mention since I'm busting up laughing!

The Verdict I know, but the other movie doesn't ring a bell.
I like the original versions of Twelve Angry Men and Witness for the Prosecution.

Yes, both good. However - neither focus on the pursuit of ambulances!

Yesterday a stack of magnetic business cards arrived for our personal injury practice. I bought them for people to use on mundane places such as refrigerator doors. But all this talk about ambulances, and with a meeting with the owners of the company on Monday afternoon, and with the magnetic surfaces in a typical ambulance, one does begin to think of the possibilities ...
