1. A priest, a rabbi and a lawyer are stranded on a desert island.

It's close enough to shore -- and civilization -- to swim; however between there and shore is shark infested waters.

The priest volunteers to swim, in order to ask for help for those left on the island.
He is immediately devoured by sharks.

The rabbi, also being a man of god, volunteers to swim. He is also devoured by the sharks.

The lawyer, all alone, figured he might as well try -- and makes it to shore. No shark attacks. Zilch. Nada. When asked why the sharks let him through his answer was simple:

"Professional courtesy."

I related this joke to OJ Simpson's civil attorney ( I was cooking for a party for him at the time.)
He wasn't amused.
