Law school Quote by Bob Goff
““Then the nickel must have dropped when he realized I had pranked him as he groaned under his breath, "Bob!" Doug's been trying to get back at me for years. But he can't, because I'm a lawyer. You don't get into and through law school like I did without gaining a few street smarts.””
