An attorney telephoned the governor just after midnight, insisting that he talk to him regarding a matter of utmost urgency.
An aide eventually agreed to wake up the governor.
“So, what is it?” grumbled the governor.
“Judge Garber has just died” said the attorney, “and I want to take his place.”
The governor replied:
“Well, it’s OK with me if it’s OK with the undertaker.”

A pipe burst in a lawyer’s house, so he called a plumber.
The plumber arrived, unpacked his tools, did mysterious plumber-type things for a while, and handed the lawyer a bill for $600.
The lawyer exclaimed, “This is ridiculous! I don’t even make that much as a lawyer!.”
The plumber quietly replied, “Neither did I when I was a lawyer.”
