An Arizona cowboy stopped at a local restaurant following a
day of drinking and roaming around in Mexico. While sipping
his tequila, he noticed a sizzling, scrumptious-looking
platter being served at the next table. Not only did it look
good, the smell was wonderful, so he asked the waiter, "What
is that you just served that fella over there?"
The waiter replied, "Ah, senor, you have excellent taste!
Those are the bull's testicles from the bullfight this
morning--A delicacy!"
The cowboy, though momentarily taken aback, said, "What the
heck, I'm on vacation down here! Bring me an order!"
The waiter replied, "I am so sorry, senor. There is only one
serving per day, because there is only one bullfight each
morning. If you come early tomorrow and place your order, we
will be sure to save you this delicacy!"
The next morning, the cowboy returned and placed his order;
then that evening he was served the one and only special
delicacy of the day. After taking a few bites and inspecting
the contents of his platter, he called the waiter over and
said, "These are delicious, but they're much, much smaller
than the ones you served yesterday! Why is that?"
The waiter shrugged his shoulders and replied, "Si, senor,
sometimes the bull wins."
and one more,
A defendant was on trial for murder. There was strong
evidence indicating guilt, but there was no corpse. In the
defense's closing statement the lawyer, knowing that his
client would probably be convicted, resorted to a trick:
"Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I have a surprise for you
all," the lawyer said as he looked at his watch. "Within
one minute, the person presumed dead in this case will walk
into this courtroom."
He looked toward the courtroom door. The jurors, somewhat
stunned, all looked on eagerly. A minute passed. Nothing
happened.
Finally the lawyer said, "Actually, I made up the previous
statement. But you all looked on with anticipation. I
therefore put it to you that there is reasonable doubt in
this case as to whether anyone was killed and insist that
you return a verdict of not guilty."
The jury, clearly confused, retired to deliberate. A few
minutes later, the jury returned and pronounced a verdict of
guilty.
"But how?" inquired the lawyer. "You must have had some
doubt, I saw all of you stare at the door."
The jury foreman replied: "Oh, we did look, but your client
didn't."
