[Non ST] jokes (formerly Triumph as guardian angel etc story)}
OK, then, seeing as how its Friday, here's some more:
Taking his seat in his chambers, the Texas judge faced
the opposing lawyers.
>>"So," he said, "I have been presented, by both of
you, with a bribe."
>>Both
>>lawyers squirmed uncomfortably. "You, attorney Leon,
gave me $15,000.
>>And
>>you, attorney Campos, gave me $10,000."
>>
>>The judge reached into his pocket and pulled out a
check. He handed it
>>to
>>Leon ... "Now then, I'm returning $5,000, and we're
going to decide this
>>case solely on its merits."
>> ---------------------------------------

>>-
>>Did you hear that the Post Office just recalled
their latest stamps?
>>They
>>had pictures of lawyers on them ... and people
couldn't figure out which
>>side to spit on.
>> --------------------------------------- >>
>>NASA was interviewing professionals they were
figuring on sending to
>>Mars.
>>The touchy part was that only one guy could go and
it would be a one way
>>trip, the guy not ever returning to Earth.
>>
>>The interviewer asked the first applicant, an
engineer, how much he
>>wanted
>>to be paid for going. "One million dollars," the
engineer answered. "And
>>I
>>want to donate it all to my alma mater--New Mexico
State University."
>>
>>The next applicant was a doctor, and the interviewer
asked him the same
>>question.
>>
>>"Two million dollars," the doctor said. "I want to
give a million to my
>>family and leave the other million for the
advancement of medical
>>research."
>>
>>The last applicant was a lawyer. When asked how much
money he wanted, he
>>whispered in the interviewer's ear, "Three million
dollars."
>>
>>"Why so much more than the others?" the interviewer
asked.
>>
>>The lawyer replied, "You give me three million, I'll
give you one
>>million,
>>I'll keep a million, and we'll send the engineer."

>>A truck driver used to amuse himself by running over
lawyers he would
>>see
>>walking down the side of the road. Every time he
would see a lawyer
>>walking
>>along the road, he would swerve to hit him, and
there would be a loud
>>"THUMP" and then he would swerve back onto the road.
One day, as the
>>truck
>>driver was driving along he saw a priest
hitchhiking. He thought he
>>would
>>do a good turn and pulled the truck over.
>>
>>He asked the priest, "Where are you going, Father?"
>>
>>"I'm going to the church 5 miles down the road,"
replied the priest.
>>
>>"No problem, Father! I'll give you a lift. Climb in
the truck." The
>>happy
>>priest climbed into the passenger seat and the truck
driver continued
>>down
>>the road.
>>
>>Suddenly the truck driver saw a lawyer walking down
the road and
>>instinctively he swerved to hit him. But then he
remembered there was a
>>priest in the truck with him, so at the last minute
he swerved back
>>away,
>>narrowly missing the lawyer. However even though he
was certain he
>>missed
>>the lawyer, he still heard a loud "THUD". Not
understanding where the
>>noise
>>came from he glanced in his mirrors and when he
didn't see anything, he
>>turned to the priest and said, "I'm sorry Father. I
almost hit that
>>lawyer."
>>
>>"That's okay", replied the priest. "I got him with
the door!"
