What do you call a busload of lawyers than runs off a cliff into the ocean?

I know tons of those jokes... I have a lawyer son-in-law (*) who has no trouble laughing about his profession.

(*) A prosecutor who has put more felons on death row than any other lawyer in Arizona history. Next up: Fairies from Maryland >:-} ...Jim Thompson

Anyway, while the Lulzbot:

can't do sophisticated electronics, it does ship fully assembled and ready to use at US$1725.00, and uses 3mm ABS at a mere US$102.00 for 5 lbs (US$120.00 for 5 lbs of glow in the dark!):

The Lulzbot looks easily hackable, too.

Maybe he wants to print 'Twinkies' & 'Ding Dogs'? ;-)
