The professor of a contract law class asked one of his better
students, "If you were to give someone an orange, how would
you go about it?"
The student replied, "Here's an orange."
The professor was outraged. "No! No! Think like a lawyer!"
The student then replied, "Okay. I'd tell him 'I hereby give
and convey to you all and singular, my estate and interests,
rights, claim, title, claim and advantages of and in, said
orange, together with all its rind, juice, pulp, and seeds, and
all rights and advantages with full power to bite, cut, freeze
and otherwise eat, the same, or give the same away with
and without the pulp, juice, rind and seeds, anything herein
before or hereinafter or in any deed, or deeds, instruments of
whatever nature or kind whatsoever to the contrary in
anywise notwithstanding...'"
