Don't You Just Love Lawyers?
A Mafia Godfather finds out that his bookkeeper has screwed him for $10,000,000. This bookkeeper is deaf. It was considered an occupational benefit. He got the job since it was assumed that as a deaf bookkeeper, he would not be able to hear anything he'd ever have to testify in court about in the first place.
When the Godfather goes to shake down the bookkeeper about his missing $10,000,000, he brings along his attorney, who knows sign language.
The Godfather asks the bookkeeper: "Where is the $10,000,000 you embezzled from me?"
The attorney, using sign language, asks the bookkeeper where the $10,000,000 is hidden.
The bookkeeper signs back, "I don't know what you are talking about."
The attorney tells the Godfather, "He says he doesn't know what you're talking about."
That's when the Godfather pulls out a 9 mm pistol, puts it to the bookkeeper's temple, cocks it and says, "Ask him again!"
The attorney signs to the underling, "He'll kill you for sure if you don't tell him!"
The bookkeeper signs back, "OK! You win! The money is in a brown briefcase, buried behind the shed in my cousin Enzio's backyard in Brooklyn!"
The Godfather asks the attorney, "Well, what'd he say?"
The attorney replies, "He says you don't have the guts to pull the trigger.
:biggrin: Oh these Lawyers !
