If that's a link to LAWYER JOKES, Stool must THWART it!!!
Actually, the joke is about a lawyer, a priest and a doctor.
Their raft is leaking in shark-filled waters and they know only one person can make it to shore. They debate who is more valuable to socieity. The priest, being a good Christian, nobly sacrifices himself. The doctor, being a doctor and thinking he is GAWD doesn't want to got go, but the lawyer is better at arguing and the doctor loses, so he jumps overboard, and, like the priest, is devoured by sharks immediately. The lawyer paddles frantically for the shore but the raft leaks too fast and the horrified people on the beach watch as he stands up in the raft, and snaps his fingers. The sharks immediately stop circling, and, instead, line up in a row from the raft to the shore, nose to tail with their fins sticking out of the water. Checking to make sure his tie is straight, the lawyer grabs his briefcase, and, just as the raft is sinking under the water, calmly steps out of it onto the fin of the first shark and nonchalantly walks on the fins/backs of the sharks to the shore.
The awestruck crowd is speechless.
Finally a young lad breaks the silence: H-h-h-how did you do THAT, Mister?" he asks, incredulously.
The lawyer shrugs nonchalantly.
"Simple," he says, diffidently. "It was merely a matter of professional courtesy."
Be NICE to lawyers!!! After ALL, you may NEED one someday!
