A lawyer walks into a bar and sits down next to a drunk who is closely examining something held in his fingers. The lawyer watches the drunk for a while till he finally gets curious enough to ask what it is. “Well” said the drunk, “it looks like plastic and feels like rubber.” “Let me have it” said the lawyer. Taking it, he began to roll it between his thumb and forefinger, examining it closely. “Yes” he finally said, “it does look like plastic and feel like rubber, but I don’t know what it is. Where did you get it?” “From my nose” the drunk replied.

Deer Tracks?
Two lawyers were out hunting when they came upon a pair of tracks. They
stopped and examined the tracks closely. The first lawyer announced, “Those are
deer tracks. It’s deer season, so we should follow the tracks and find our
prey.” The second lawyer responded,� Those are clearly elk tracks, and elk are
out of season. If we follow your advice, we’ll waste the day.” Each attorney
believed himself to be the superior woodsman, and they both bitterly stuck to
their guns.
They were still arguing when the train hit them.

The heart of the matter
A man who was having heart trouble went to the doctor to see what his options
were. Naturally, the doctor recommended a heart transplant. The man reluctantly
agreed, and asked if there were any hearts immediately available, considering
that money was no object.
“I do have three hearts,” said the doctor. “The first is from an 18-year old
kid, non-smoker, athletic, swimmer, with a great diet. He hit his head on the
swimming pool and died. It’s $100,000. The second is from a marathon runner, 25
years old, great condition, very strong. He got hit by a bus. It’s $150,000. The
third is from a heavy drinker, cigar smoker, steak lover. It’s $500,000.”
“Hey, why is that heart so expensive? He lived a terrible life!”
“Yes, but it’s from a laywer. It’s never been used.”

Eternal Marriage
On their way to a justice of the peace to get married, a couple has a fatal car accident. The couple is sitting outside heaven’s gate waiting on St.Peter to do an intake. While waiting, they wonder if they could possibly get married in Heaven.
St. Peter finally shows up and they ask him.
St. Peter says, “I don’t know, this is the first time anyone has ever asked. Let me go find out,” and he leaves.
The couple sits for a couple of months and begin to wonder if they really should get married in Heaven, what with the eternal aspect of it all. “What if it doesn’t work out?” they wonder, “Are we stuck together forever?”
St. Peter returns after yet another month, looking somewhat bedraggled. “Yes,” he informs the couple, “You can get married in Heaven.”
“Great,” says the couple, “but what if things don’t work out?
Could we also get a divorce in Heaven?”
St. Peter, red-faced, slams his clipboard onto the ground!
“What’s wrong?” exclaims the frightened couple.
“Come on!” St. Peter exclaims, “It took me three months to find a priest up here!
Do you have any idea how long it’s going to take for me to find a lawyer!?”
Valentine’s Cards
A guy walks into a post office one day to see a middle-aged, balding
man standing at the counter methodically placing “Love” stamps on bright pink envelopes with hearts all over them. He then takes out a perfume bottle and starts spraying scent all over them.
His curiosity getting the better of him, he goes up to the balding man and asks him what he is doing.
The man says “I’m sending out 1,000 Valentine cards signed, ‘Guess who?'”
“But why?” asks the man.
“I’m a divorce lawyer,” the man replies!
Out on a limb
A lawyer defending a man accused of burglary tried this creative defense:
“My client merely inserted his arm into the window and removed a few
trifling articles. His arm is not himself, and I fail to see how you can
punish the whole individual for an offense committed by his limb.”
“Well put,” the judge replied. “Using your logic, I sentence the
defendant’s arm to one year’s imprisonment. He can accompany it or not, as
he chooses.”
The defendant smiled. With his lawyer’s assistance he detached his
artificial limb, laid it on the bench, and walked out.
Job seeking

The next day, while walking along the river, he saw a drowned man being pulled out, and recognized him as a federal judge.He ran back to the White House and demanded the position. Sorry, said the President, but the lawyer who saw that judge fall in beat you here by a good five minutes.
