Lawyer With a Heart

Nothing is funnier to me than a good lawyer joke; the problem is that not than many of them are funny.  This one, however, which came from a client (which should probably concern me, but oh well), is one of the rare funny ones.  It’s called “Lawyer with a Heart”:


One afternoon a lawyer was riding in his limousine when he saw two men along the roadside eating grass.  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, you can 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.”  The second man, in a pitiful voice, then said, “But sir, I also have a wife and SIX children with me!”  “Bring them all, as well,” the lawyer answered.  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, and you’ll really love my place; The grass is almost a foot high!”

Heartless?  Maybe, sometimes, but never humorless.
