In Louisiana , this fella, Boudreaux, had a bad vehicle accident, caused by
an 18-wheeler that ran a stop sign.

In court, the trucking company's fancy lawyer was questioning Boudreaux:
Didn't you say, at the scene of the accident, "I'm fine"? the lawyer asked.

Boudreaux responded, "Let me told you what happened. Me, I had jus loaded
my favorite mule, Bessie, into da . ."

"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!"?

Boudreaux said, "I had jus got Bessie into da trailer and I was driving down
da road . . "

The lawyer interrupted again and said, "Judge, I am trying to establish
the fact that, at the scene of the accident, this man told the State
Policeman on the scene 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 answer the question."

By this time, the Judge was fairly interested in Boudreaux's answer and said
to the lawyer, "I'd like to hear what he has to say about his favorite mule,
Bessie.."



Boudreaux thanked the Judge and proceeded, "I had just loaded Bessie, my
favorite mule, into da trailer and was driving her down da highway when dis
huge semi-truck and trailer ran da stop sign and smacked my truck right in
da side. Me, I was thrown into one ditch and Bessie was thrown into da
udder.. I was hurting, real bad and didn't want to move at tall. But, I
could herd ole Bessie moanin and groanin. Me, I knew she was in some kind
o' terrible shape just by her groans.

Shortly after da accident, a State Policeman, he came on da scene. He herd
Bessie moanin' and groanin' so, him, he went over ta her. After he took
hisself a look at her, he took out his gun and shot her between da eyes.
Den da Patrolman came cross d a road, gun in hand, and looked at me, and
said 'How are you feeling?...'"



"...Now what da hell would you say?!"

Now that's funny....
