The Godfather

The Godfather, accompanied by his attorney, walks into a room to meet with
his accountant. The Godfather asks the accountant, “Where’s the three
million bucks you embezzled from me?” The accountant doesn’t answer. The
Godfather asks again, “Where’s the three million bucks you embezzled from
me?”

The attorney interrupts, “Sir, the man is a deaf-mute and cannot
understand you, but I can interpret for you.”

The Godfather says, “Well, ask him where the @#!* money is.” The attorney,
using sign language, asks the accountant where the three million dollars
is. The accountant signs back, “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
The attorney interprets to the Godfather, “He doesn’t know what you’re
talking about.” The Godfather pulls out a pistol, puts it to the temple of
the accountant, cocks the trigger and says, “Ask him again where the @#!*
money is!”

The attorney signs to the accountant, “He wants to know where it is!” The
accountant signs back, “Okay! Okay! The money’s hidden in a suitcase
behind the shed in my backyard!” The Godfather says, “Well, what did he
say?” The attorney interprets to the Godfather, “He says that you don’t
have the guts to pull the trigger.”

THE FEMALE

A certain lawyer was quite wealthy and had a summerhouse in the country
where he retreated for several weeks every year. Each summer, the lawyer would
invite a different friend of his (no, that’s not the punch line) to spend a week
or two at this home, which happened to be in a backwoods. On one particular
occasion, he invited a Czechoslovakian friend to stay with him. The friend,
eager to get a freebee off of the lawyer, agreed. They had a splendid time in
the country — rising early and living in the great outdoors. Early one morning,
the lawyer and his Czechoslovakian companion went out to pick berries for their
morning breakfast. As they went around the berry patch, gathering blueberries
and raspberries in tremendous quantities, along came two huge Bears — a large
male and a smaller female. The lawyer, seeing the two bears and sensing danger,
immediately dashed for cover. His friend, however, being ignorant of nature, was
not so lucky. The male bear charged the paralyzed Czechoslovakian, and then
swallowed him whole. The lawyer, instilled with fright, rushed back to his car
and sped into town to get the local sheriff. The sheriff, upon hearing the
lawyer’s unsettling story, grabbed his rifle and dashed back to the berry patch
with the lawyer following closely behind. Sure enough, the two bears were still
there. “He’s in THAT one!� cried the lawyer, pointing to the large male bear,
all the while visions of lawsuits from his friend’s family lagged in the back of
his mind. He just had to save his friend. The sheriff looked at the two bears,
and without batting an eye, leveled his rifle, took careful aim, and SHOT THE
FEMALE. “What did you do that for!� exclaimed the lawyer, “I said he was in the
other one!” “Exactly,” replied the sheriff, “Would YOU believe a lawyer who told
you the Czech was in the male?”

This way you don’t bang up the finish on the craft.”
