A farmer named Seamus had a road traffic accident was
questioning Seamus.
'Didn't you say, to the Garda at the scene of the accident,
'I'm fine,'?'
Asked the solicitor.
Seamus responded, 'Well, I'll tell you what happened. I had just
loaded my favourite cow, Bessie, into the...'
'I didn't ask for any details', the solicitor interrupted. 'Just
answer the question. Did you not say, at the scene of the
accident,
'I'm fine!'?'
Seamus said, 'Well, I had just got Bessie into the trailer and
I was driving down the road....'
The solicitor interrupted again and said, 'Your Honour, I am
trying to establish the fact that, at the scene of the accident, this man
told the Gárda on the scene that he was fine. Now several weeks
after the accident he is trying to see my client. I believe he is a fraud.
Please tell him to simply answer the question.'
By this time, the judge was fairly interested in Seamus's
answer and said to the solicitor, 'I'd like to hear what he has to say
about his favourite cow, Bessie'.
Seamus thanked the Judge and proceeded. 'Well as I was saying,
I had just loaded Bessie, my favourite cow, into the trailer and was
driving her down the road when this huge lorry and trailer came through
a stop sign and hit my trailer right in the side. I was thrown into
one ditch and Bessie was thrown into the other. I was hurt, very bad
like, and didn't want to move.
However, I could hear old Bessie moaning and groaning. I knew
she was in terrible shape just by her groans. Shortly after the
accident a Garda on a motorbike turned up. He could hear Bessie moaning and
groaning so he went over to her. After he looked at her, and
saw her condition, he took out his gun and shot her between the eyes.
Then the Garda came across the road, gun still in hand, looked
at me, And said, 'How are you feeling?'
'Now what the F*ck would you say?'
