Actually a partner in the law firm of "Haggle, Dicker, Barter, Cheatem, Rippemoff and Howe"... :scared-eek:

 

I use only the first three partners and avoid those last three... :D

Actually, Johnny borrowed that from the Three Stooges.  As a kid I watched all the Stooges every afternoon.   Still funny in any case.
