Clyde's Accident

A farmer named Clyde had a car accident. In court, the trucking
company's fancy lawyer was questioning Clyde. "Didn't you say, at the
scene of the accident, 'I'm fine,'?" asked the lawyer.

Clyde responded, "Well, I'll tell you what happened. I had just
loaded my favorite mule,
Bessie, into the...

"I didn't ask for any details", the lawyer interrupted. "Just answer
the question. Did you not say, at the scene of the accident,'I' m
fine!'?" Clyde said, "Well, I had just got Bessie into the
trailer and I was driving down the road...." The lawyer interrupted
again and said, "Judge, I am trying to establish the fact that, at
the scene of the accident, this man told the Highway Patrolman on the
scene that he was just fine. Now several weeks after the accident he
is trying to sue 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 Clyde's answer and
said to the lawyer, "I'd like to hear what he has to say about his
favorite mule, Bessie." Clyde thanked the Judge and
proceeded. "Well, as I was saying, I had just loaded Bessie, my
favorite mule, into the trailer
and was driving her down the highway when this huge semi-truck and
trailer ran the stop sign and smacked my truck right in the side. I
was thrown into one ditch and Bessie was thrown into the other. I was
hurting, real bad and didn't want to move. However, I could hear ole
Bessie moaning and groaning. I knew she was in terrible shape just
by her groans. Shortly after the accident a Highway Patrolman came
on the scene. He could hear Bessie moaning and groaning so he went
over to her. After he looked at her, and saw her fatal condition, he
took out his gun and shot her between the eyes. Then the Patrolman
came across the road, gun still in hand, looked at me,and said, "How
are you feeling?" "Now what the H**L would you say?"
