FARMER JOE
GOES TO COURT
Farmer Joe decided his injuries from a car accident were
indeed serious enough to
take the trucking company (responsible for the accident) to court.
In court, the trucking company's fancy lawyer was
questioning Farmer
Joe.
"Didn't you tell the officer,
at the scene of the accident, "I'm fine."
said the lawyer.
Farmer Joe responded,
"Well I'll tell you what happened.
I
had just loaded my favorite mule 'Bessie' into the.........."
"I didn't ask for any details," the lawyer interrupted,
"just answer the
question." Did you not say, at the scene of the accident,
'"I'm fine!'"
Farmer Joe says, "Well I had just got Bessie
into the trailer and I was
driving down the road......"
Again the lawyer interrupts and
says,
"Judge, I am trying to establish the fact, that at the scene of the accident, this man told the
Highway Patrolman, that he was just fine. Now, several weeks
after the accident, he is trying to 'sue' my client. I believe he is a
'fraud'. Please tell him to simply answer the question."
By this time the Judge was fairly interested in Farmer Joe's answer and
said to the lawyer, "I'd like to hear what Joe has to say about his favorite
mule, Bessie."
Joe thanked the Judge and proceeded.
"Well, as I was saying ya honor, I had just loaded Bessie, my favorite mule, into the trailer
and was
driving her down the highway,
when this huge semi-truck and trailer ran the
stop sign and smacked my truck right in the side."
"I was thrown into one ditch
and Bessie was thrown into the
other ditch.
I was
hurting real bad and didn't want to move. However, I could hear ole Bessie
moaning and groaning. Poor Bessie.
I knew she was in terrible shape just by her groans.
Shortly after the accident a Highway Patrolman came on the scene. He could
hear Bessie moaning and groaning, so he went over to her. He looked at her,
he took out his gun, and shot her, right between the eyes. Then the Patrolman came
across the road, with his gun still in his hand and looked at me." He said,
"Your mule was in such bad shape, I had to shoot her."

"Now, how are you feeling Mister?"
