    You have to understand, we Texans grew up with Jim Adler, so the Texas Hammer is the closest thing we have to a super hero after Roger Staubach or Jamie Foxx. We've all heard the commercial so many times it's like a core developmental memory at this point, and his family is basically our extended marvel universe.

      Personal injury lawyers make bank. There's a reason why a certain kind of opportunistic lawyer is called an ambulance chaser. People get injured all the time (and because of trucker being a common job, 18 wheelers being involved is oddly common) and they get big payouts from insurance companies when they are (if they get a good lawyer).
