Suddenly, out of nowhere, a truck

                                           came speeding around the corner

                                           and knocked the farmer and Bessie

                                           off the road into a ditch.









                Like any red-blooded American with any backbone

                at all, the farmer sued the trucking company.



                The case went to court, and the defense attorney for

                the trucking company had the plaintiff-farmer on the

                witness stand. He was cross examining him, and the

                lawyer said,



                       “Sir, is it not true that, on the day of the

                       accident, after you were allegedly, and

                       inadvertently knocked into the ditch, that

                       the truck driver got out of his truck, and

                       came back to where you were. He then

                       asked, ‘Are you hurt?” —  to which you

                      replied, ‘No, I am not.’


                       Now please answer the question with a

                       simple yes or no reply only.”
