A lawyer's dog, running about
A lawyer's dog, running about unleashed, b-lines for the local butcher shop and steals a roast off the counter. The butcher goes to the lawyer's office and asks, ''if a dog, running unleashed, steals a piece of meat from my store, do I have a right to demand payment for the meat from the dog's owner?''

''Absolutely,'' the lawyer responded.

The butcher immediately shot back, ''Good! You owe me $7.99 for the roast your dog stole from me this morning.''

The lawyer, without a word, writes the butcher a check for $7.99. A few days later, the butcher, browsing through his mail, finds an envelope from the lawyer.

The contents read ''Consultation Fee: $25.00.''

Actual Answer from a Medical Student
While making his rounds, a doctor points out an x-ray to a group of medical students.

�As you can see,� he says, �the patient limps because his left fibula and tibia are radically arched.�

The doctor turns to one of the students and asks, �What would you do in a case like this?�

�Well,� ponders the student, �I suppose I�d limp, too.�
