<Well...I've got this bridge... > OT (maybe) A Sidney Sheldon novel has a powerful female attorney who springs a woman from involuntary admission to a psychiatric hospital, court ordered at the request of her children who fear she is psychotic and spending the family fortune before they can inherit it. The attorney has made a good case for the woman's mental health, and the childrens' greed and ulterior motive. The attorney is absolutely convinced her client is mentally sound, and now they are having lunch, a nice conversation, and settling the attorney's bill. The client is very appreciative, and remarks that the attorney's bill is too conservative in terms of the great service rendered. She wants to pay her more. The attorney protests: the amount is fine- it is standard and accepted fee. The client wants to pay her more money, but understands that the attorney won't accept it. The client then says: " Well.....then let me give you Wyoming."
