Hit and Run.

Friday, April 7th, 2006

A very successful lawyer parked his brand-new Lexus in front of his office, ready to show it off to his colleagues. As he got out, a truck passed too close and completely tore the door off of the driver’s side. The counselor immediately grabbed his cell phone, dialed 911, and within minutes a policeman pulled up.
Before the officer had a chance to ask any questions, the lawyer started screaming hysterically. His Lexus, which he had just picked up the day before, was now completely ruined and would never be the same, no matter what the body shop did to it.
When the lawyer finally wound down from his ranting and raving, the officer shook his head in disgust and disbelief.  ”I can’t believe how materialistic you lawyers are,” he said. “You are so focused on your possessions that you don’t notice anything else.”
“How can you say such a thing?” asked the lawyer.
The cop replied, “Don’t you know that your left arm is missing from the elbow down? It must have been torn off when the truck hit you.”
“Ahhh!” screamed the lawyer. “Where’s my Rolex!”

The Doctor & The Lawyer

Thursday, April 6th, 2006

A doctor and a lawyer were talking at a party. Their conversation was constantly interrupted by people describing their ailments and asking the doctor for free medical advice. After an hour of this, the exasperated doctor asked the lawyer, “What do you do to stop people from asking you for legal advice when you’re out of the office?” 

 

“I give it to them,” replied the lawyer, “and then I send them a bill.” 

 

The doctor was shocked, but agreed to give it a try. The next day, still feeling slightly guilty, the doctor prepared the bills. When he went to place them in his mailbox, he found a bill from the lawyer.

Marriage In Heaven

Thursday, April 6th, 2006

The night before a couple were about to be married, they both were killed in a car accident. They arrived in Heaven and asked St. Peter if they could still get married. 

 

The couple was called in to actually see God. God spoke, ‘I will grant you your wish. But not right now. It may be a few days or a few years, but I will allow you to be married.’ 

 

Five years came and went and the couple was finally called upon to get married. After one day of wedding ‘bliss’, they went back to God to see if they could get a divorce. They were sure the marriage would not last. 

 

God spoke, ‘It took me five years to finally get a priest in Heaven. Do you have any idea how much longer it will be until we get a lawyer?!’Â
