A LAWYER ON A PLANE Joke
A doctor, a lawyer, a little boy and a priest were out for a Sunday
afternoon
flight on a small private plane. Suddenly, the plane developed
engine
trouble. In spite of the best efforts of the pilot, the plane
started to go
down. Finally, the pilot grabbed a parachute, yelled to the
passengers that
they had better jump, and then he bailed out.
Unfortunately, there were only three parachutes remaining. The
doctor grabbed
one and said "I'm a doctor, I save lives, so I must live,"
and jumped out.
The lawyer then said, "I'm a lawyer and lawyers are the
smartest people in
the world. I deserve to live." He also grabbed a parachute and
jumped.
The priest looked at the little boy and said, "My son, I've
lived a long and
full life. You are young and have your whole life ahead of you. Take
the last
parachute and live in peace."
The little boy handed the parachute back to the priest and said,
"Not to
worry, Father. The 'smartest man in the world' just took off with my
back
pack
