A Russian citizen went to the local butcher and asked, “Do you have
any pork today?”
“No,” the butcher replied.
“Any
lamb?”
“No.”
“Chicken? Veal? Beef?”

“Carla and I are getting a divorce,” John announced to his
friend Bob. “Ever since we got married, she has tried to change me. She
got me to stop drinking, smoking, running around at all hours of the night and

classical music and how to invest in the stock market.”
“That
doesn’t sound bad to me,” Bob replied. “Why are you so
bitter?”

stop people from asking you for legal advice when you’re out of the
office?”
“I go ahead and advise them,” replied the lawyer,
“and then I send them a bill.”
The doctor was shocked at first,
but upon reflection decided that it was a fair solution to his problem. So the
next day he prepared the bills. When he went to place them in his mailbox, he
found a bill from the lawyer.
