I hit a lawyer!
Published Jan 01, 1900
After rear-ending my car, the young man who was driving came running up to my door and asked, "Are you all right?" "I'm not sure," I said, handing him my business card. "Oh, no!" he groaned. "I hit a lawyer!" Just then my son pulled up in his police cruiser. When he got out and asked, "Are you all right, Dad?" the driver moaned again. Later an ambulance arrived, and an EMT I knew came running over. "How do you feel, Mr. Clifford?" At this point the poor driver slumped against his car. "Okay," he said, "when is the mayor coming?"
