A lawyer at the box office

A lawyer is standing in a long line at the box office. Suddenly, he feels a
pair of hands kneading his shoulders, back, and neck. The lawyer turns around.
“What the hell do you think you’re doing?” “I’m a chiropractor, and I’m just
keeping in practice while I’m waiting in line.” “Well, I’m a lawyer, but you
don’t see me screwing the guy in front of me, do you?”

Trial

Having been propositioned by a well-defined and uptown prostitute one
evening, a successful single gentleman agreed to have consensual sex with the
young lady for the sum of $500.00. After the evening ended the gentleman handed
the young lady $250.00. The prostitute immediately demanded the balance and
threatened to sue if she didn’t get it. “That’s a laugh!” the man stated, “I’d
like to see you try.” A few days later the man was surprised to receive a
summons ordering him to appear in court as a defendant in a lawsuit. The man
hurried to his lawyer’s office and explained the details of the case. His lawyer
said, “She can’t possibly get a judgment against you on such grounds, but it
will be interesting to see how she presents her case.” After the usual
preliminaries, the parties appeared in court ready for trial.

Space photography

The New York Times, among other papers, recently published a new Hubble Space Telescope photograph of distant galaxies colliding.Of course, astronomers have had pictures of colliding galaxies for quite some time now, but with the vastly improved resolution provided by the Hubble, you can actually see the lawyers rushing to the scene.

Thrifty Lawyer

A dog ran into a butcher shop and grabbed a roast off the counter. Fortunately, the butcher recognized the dog as belonging to a neighbor of his. The neighbor happened to be a lawyer. Incensed at the theft, the butcher called up his neighbor and said, “Hey, if your dog stole a roast from my butcher shop, would you be liable for the cost of the meat?” The lawyer replied, “Of course, how much was the roast?” “$7.98.” said the butcher. A few days later the butcher received a check in the mail for $7.98. Attached to it was an invoice. It read: Legal Consultation Service $150

Best Friends

After dinner and a movie, Carl drove his date to a quiet country road and made his move. When Mary responded enthusiastically to his kissing, he tried sliding his hand up her blouse. Suddenly she jerked away, got out of the car and walked home. That night she wrote in her diary, “A girl’s best friends are her own two legs.”On their next date, Carl returned to the country road. As they were necking, he slid his hand up Mary’s skirt. Once again she pulled away, got out of the car and walked home. That night she wrote in her diary, “I repeat, a girl’s best friends are her own two legs.”On the third date, the pair returned to the country road. This time Mary didn’t get home until very late. That night she wrote, “Dear diary: There comes a time when even the best of friends must part.”

At the height of a political corruption trial, the prosecuting attorney attacked a witness.”Isn’t it true,” he bellowed, “that you accepted five thousand dollars to compromise this case?” The witness stared out the window, as though he hadn’t hear the question.”Isn’t it true that you accepted five thousand dollars to compromise this case?” the lawyer repeated. The witness still did not respond. Finally, the judge leaned over and said, “Sir, please answer the question.” “Oh,” the startled witness said, “I thought he was talking to you.”

Cajun Home Birth

Not so deep in the swamplands of Louisiana, a Cajun’s wife went into labor in the middle of the night. The doctor was called out to assist in the delivery. Since there was no electricity, the doctor handed the father-to-be a lantern and said, “Here. You hold dis high so I can see what I’m doing.” Soon, a baby boy was brought into the world. “Whoa there,” said the doctor, “Don’t be in such a rush to put dat lantern down. I think dere’s another one coming.” Sure enough, within minutes he had delivered a babygirl. “Hold dat lantern up, don’t set it down, dere’s another one!” said the doctor. Within a few minutes he had delivered a third baby. “Don’t put down dat lantern, it seems dere’s yet another one a coming!” cried the doctor. The Cajun scratched his head in bewilderment and asked the doctor, “You tink it might be da light that’s attractin’ ’em?”
