The duck and the lawyer
A man was at the fence, an elderly farmer drove up on his tractor and
asked him what he was doing.
The litigator responded, "I shot a duck and it fell into this field, and
now I'm going to retrieve it."
The old farmer replied, "This is my property and you are not coming over here!"
The indignant lawyer said, "I am one of the best trial attorneys in Toronto, and,
if you don't let me get that duck, I'll sue you and take everything you own."
The old farmer smiled and said, "Apparently, you don't know how we settle
disputes here in this part of Nova Scotia. We settle small disagreements like
this with the 'Three Kick Rule.'"
The lawyer asked, "What is the 'Three Kick Rule' ?"
The Farmer replied, "Well, because the dispute occurs on my land, I get to go
first. I kick you three times and then you kick me three times and so on back
and forth until someone gives up."
The attorney quickly thought about the proposed contest and decided that he
could easily take the old codger. He agreed to abide by the local custom.
The old farmer slowly climbed down from the tractor and walked up to the
attorney. His first kick planted the toe of his heavy steel-toed work boot into
the lawyer's groin and dropped him to his knees!
His second kick to the midriff sent the lawyer's last meal gushing from his
mouth. The lawyer was on all fours when the farmer's third kick to his rear end
sent him face-first into a fresh "cow pie".
The lawyer summoned every bit of his will and remaining strength and very
slowly managed to get to his feet. Wiping his face with the arm of his jacket,
he said, "Okay, you old dog. Now it's my turn!"
(I love this part)
The old farmer smiled and said, "Nah, I give up. You can have the duck."
Don't you just love old people?
