Lawyer jokes, a special jpr thread

A man was sent to Hell for his sins. As he was being taken to his place of eternal torment, he passed a room where a lawyer was having an intimate encounter with a beautiful young woman.

"What a ripoff," the man muttered. "I have to roast for all eternity, and that lawyer gets to spend it with a beautiful woman."

Jabbing the man with his pitchfork, the escorting demon snarled, "Who are you to question that woman's punishment?"

==========================================

At the height of a political corruption trial, the prosecuting attorney attacked a witness. "Isn't it true," he bellowed, "that you accepted five thousand dollars to compromise this case?"

The witness stared out the window, as though he hadn't hear the question.

"Isn't it true that you accepted five thousand dollars to compromise this case?" the lawyer repeated. The witness still did not respond.

Finally, the judge leaned over and said, "Sir, please answer the question."

"Oh," the startled witness said, "I thought he was talking to you."
 
I was taking a tour of the control tower at RDU airport one day. As part of the tour, you can listen to the conversations the air traffic controllers have with pilots.

While there, I heard this conversation:

RDU Control this is Piper Cub xxxx with 7 passengers requesting permission to land.

The air traffic controllers thought this was some type of joke, so they ignored it.

A couple of minutes later: RDU Control this is Piper Cub xxxx with 7 passengers requesting permission to land.

Now everyone knows a Piper Cub can not carry 7 passengers, so once again the air traffic controllers thought it was a joke and ignored it.

When the same message came again, the air traffic controllers decided to play along. They gave instructions for landing and told the pilot to taxi to a certain gate.

When the Piper Cub landed, 7 very short and very thin men got out of the plane. All were wearing 3 piece suits and were carrying brief cases. The air traffic controllers told the pilot to report to the control tower immediately.

When the pilot arrived he was quizzed about how he had 7 passengers. He told the following story:

He was in Asheville, NC and the only commercial flight to RDU had been canceled because of mechanical trouble. The 7 people that needed to come to RDU demanded he take them in his Piper Cub.

Being that the 7 were lawyers, he stuck them with a pin, let out all the hot air, and what you see is all that was left, so he was able to get all 7 in his Piper Cub.

My brother is an attorney that practices in Asheville. I told that joke at Christmas dinner at his house a few years ago. He knew a lot of lawyer jokes but had never heard that one.
