The Lawyer and the Duck

[Griff36]

A world famous lawyer was duck hunting in Wales. Recently, he attempted to cross a fence into a field to retrieve a duck he had shot. A farmer pulled

up in his pickup truck, jumped out and asked the lawyer what he was doing on his property.

 

"Getting a duck that I just shot," he replied.

 

"That duck is on my side of the fence, so it is now mine, " replied the farmer."

 

 

The lawyer asked the farmer if he recognized who he was talking to. "No," replied the farmer, "and I don't care."

 

 

"I am (insert name here) a famous lawyer from (insert city here)," came the reply. I am the lawyer that never loses a case and I'm rich. If you don't

let me get that duck, I can sue you for your farm, your truck and everything else you own. I'll leave you penniless on the street."

 

 

"Well," said the farmer, "In Wales, the law we go by ... is the 3 kick law."

 

 

"Never heard of it," said the lawyer.

 

 

The farmer said, "I get to kick you 3 times and if you make it back to your feet, and are able to kick me back 3 times, the duck is yours."

 

 

The lawyer thought this over. He grew up in a tough neighborhood and figured he could take this old farmer. "Fair enough", he said. So the farmer kicked

the lawyer violently in the groin. As he was doubled over, the farmer kicked him in the face. And when he hit the ground, he kicked him hard in the ribs.

 

 

After several moments, the lawyer slowly got back to his feet. "All right, now it's my turn," said the lawyer. "Aw, forget it," said the farmer.

 

 

"You can have the duck."
