Really, what a deal!

TV commercials intrigue me.  I know, I know, I'm easily amused, but really sometimes they tug at my heart, sometimes they make me laugh and sometimes they just puzzle me.  How can a super one-day sale last two days? How will I save money by spending money?  Will a face lift really make me look 20 again?

But the one I've been pondering most lately is one advertising a legal firm (which shall remain nameless because I don't want to be sued).  In their commercial they say "If you decide to settle a law suit and the money you receive is less that what you owe us, we'll reduce our fee."  Hmmm... They don't say by how much they'll reduce their fee.  Will it equal my settlement?  Will it still be larger than my settlement?  Will I walk away with anything?  Why didn't you win the lawsuit for me?

I'm not a litigious person so I'll probably never know.
