Sports car

The work of a certain timid but thorough law clerk was valued for its precision, so soon he was making money to buy himself a nice imported sports car.

Not long afterwards he had the misfortune to get lost in the worst part of town, and when he stopped at a red light a huge, mean he hauled him out of the driver’s seat.

Drawing a circle around him on the pavement, the hoodlum told him not to set foot out of it unless he wanted the shit beat out of him. The delinquent proceeded to demolish the car, starting with the headlights and windows, when he heard the law clerk giggling.

He moved on to the body and engine, but in between crashes he couldn’t help hearing gales of laughter.

Finally, crowbar in hand, he came over to his victim and demanded, “What you laughing about? Your fancy car’s never gonna run again.”

“So?” the clerk gasped helplessly, tears running down his face. “Ever since you started tearing up my car, I’ve been stepping in and out of this circle, in and out, in and out…”

Bloody lawyers

The madam opened the brothel door in Winnipeg and saw a rather dignified, well-dressed, good-looking man in his late forties or early fifties.

‘May I help you sir?’ she asked. ‘I want to see Valerie,’ the man replied.

‘Sir, Valerie is one of our most expensive ladies. Perhaps you would prefer someone else’, said the madam.

‘No, I must see Valerie,’ he replied.
Just then, Valerie appeared and announced to the man she charged $5000 a visit. Without hesitation, the man pulled out five thousand dollars and gave it to Valerie, and they went upstairs. After an hour, the man calmly left.

The next night, the man appeared again, once more demanding to see Valerie. Valerie explained that no one had ever come back two nights in a row as she was too expensive. But there were no discounts. The price was still $5000.

Again, the man pulled out the money, gave it to Valerie, and they went upstairs. After an hour, he left.

The following night the man was there yet again. Everyone was astounded that he had come for a third consecutive night, but he paid Valerie and they went upstairs.
After their session, Valerie said to the man, ‘No one has ever been with me three nights in a row. Where are you from?’.

The man replied, ‘Ontario’.

‘Really’, she said. ‘I have family in Ontario.’

‘I know.’ the man said ‘Your sister died, and I am her attorney. She asked me to give you your $15,000 inheritance.’

The moral of the story is that three things in life are certain.
1. Death
2. Taxes
3. Being screwed by a lawyer

A guy asks a lawyer what his fee is.

“I charge $50 for three questions,” the lawyer says.

“That’s awfully steep, isn’t it?” the guy asks.

“Yes,” the lawyer replies, “Now what’s your final question?”

True justice

A lawyer dies and goes to Heaven. “There must be some mistake,” the lawyer argues. “I’m too young to die. I’m only fifty five.”

“Fifty five?” says Saint Peter. “No, according to out calculations, you’re eighty two.”

“How’s you get that?” the lawyer asks.

Answers St. Peter: “We added up your time sheets.”

Guilty

A judge asked a defendant to please stand. “You are charged with murdering a school teacher with a chain saw.”
From out in the audience a man shouted, “Lying bastard!”
“Silence in the court!”, the judge shouted back to the man. He turned to the defendant and said, “You are also charged with killing a paperboy with a shovel.”
“Tightwad!”, blurted the man again.
“Quiet!”, yelled the judge who continued, “You are also charged with killing a mailman with an electric drill.”
“Son of a…” the man started to shout when the judge thundered back, “If you don’t tell me reason for your outbursts right now, I will hold in contempt!”
So the man answered, “I’ve lived next to that man for ten years now, but do you think he ever had a tool when I needed to borrow one!”

Bloody lawyers!

A lawyer’s dog, running about unleashed, beelines for the local butcher shop
and steals a roast off the counter. The butcher goes to the lawyer’s office and
asks, “if a dog, running unleashed, steals a piece of meat from my store, do I
have a right to demand payment for the meat from the dog’s owner?” “Absolutely,”
the lawyer responded. The butcher immediately shot back, “Good! You owe me $7.99
for the roast your dog stole from me this morning.” The lawyer, without a word,
writes the butcher a check for $7.99. A few days later, the butcher, browsing
through his mail, finds an envelope from the lawyer. The contents read
“Consultation: $25.00.”
