Lawyers Part XVII


A Mafia Godfather, accompanied by his attorney,
walks into a room to meet with his former accountant.
The Godfather asks the accountant, "Where
is the 3 million bucks you embezzled from me?"
The accountant does not answer.
The Godfather asks again, "Where is the 3 million
bucks you embezzled from me?"
The attorney interrupts, "Sir, the man is a
deaf mute and cannot understand you, but I can
interpret for you."
The Godfather says, "Well ask him where my
damn money is!" The attorney, using sign language,
asks the accountant where the 3 million dollars
is.
The accountant signs back, "I don't know what
you are talking about."
The attorney interprets to the Godfather, "He
doesn't know what you are talking about."
The Godfather pulls out a 9 millimeter pistol,
puts it to the temple of the accountant, cocks
the trigger and says, "Ask him again where my
damn money is!"
The attorney signs to the accountant, "He wants
to know where it is!"
The accountant signs back, "OK! OK! OK! The
money is hidden in a brown suitcase behind the
shed in my backyard!"
The Godfather says, "Well....what did he say?"
The attorney interprets to the Godfather,
"He says...go to hell... ..that you don't have
the guts to pull the trigger."

You know I have never liked lawyers but this is hilarious! I have got to give some respect where it's due, though grudgingly.

Knowing accountants, I can safely tell you the money is in a safe place. The brown suitcase is full of toilet paper! *LOL*

Jokes about lawyers are always funny, and if you throw in a handicapped fellow, well, that's comedy gold.
