Grass

One afternoon a lawyer was riding in his limousine, when he saw two men, eating grass, along the side of the road .
Disturbed, he ordered his driver to stop, and he got out to investigate. He asked one man, "Why are you eating grass?"
"We don't have any money for food," the poor man replied. "We have to eat grass."
"Well, then, why don't you come with me, to my house, and I'll feed you" the lawyer said.

"But sir, I have a wife and two children with me. They are over there, under that tree."
"Bring them along" the lawyer replied. Turning to the other poor man he stated, "You come with us also, and bring your family too"

They all entered the car, which was no easy task, even for a car as large as the limousine was. Once underway, one of the poor fellows turned to the lawyer and said, "Sir, you are too kind. Thank you for taking all of us with you."
The lawyer replied, "Glad to do it. You'll really love my place.The grass is almost a foot high."

Good thing or he was going to have to pay someone to mow the lawn.

He may be a heartless monster, but at least he's a pragmatist.

I love the way lawyers do their bit for society. They are all heart!
