A Lawyer, A Czech, and the Bear
A very wealthy lawyer vacationed for several weeks each year at his summer home in the backwoods of Alaska. Each summer, he would invite friends to come to visit him.
One summer he invited a lawyer from the Czech Republic to visit. The friend, eager to see how a wealthy American vacationed, gratefully agreed. They had a wonderful vacation, and spent a great deal of time exploring the woods and enjoying the natural setting. One morning, as the lawyer and his Czech friend were walking through the woods, they were approached by two huge grizzly bears -- a male and a female. The lawyer noticed them in time to run for cover. His friend, however, was not so lucky. The male bear reached him and swallowed him whole. Seeing this, the lawyer ran to his Mercedes and sped for the nearest town to get the Alaska State Trooper. The trooper grabbed a high-powered rifle and they raced back to the berry patch. Luckily, the bears were still there. "He's in THAT one!" cried the lawyer, pointing at the male grizzly bear that had consumed his friend. "Quick -- shoot it. Maybe we can still save my friend!" The trooper looked at the grizzly bears, leveled his gun, took careful aim, and shot the female. His aim was true, and the female bear collapsed to the ground. The startled male fled into the woods. "Why did you do that?" demanded the lawyer, "I said he was in the other bear!" "Exactly," replied the trooper. "Would you believe a lawyer who told you that the Czech was in the male? |
