Clyde the Farmer

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.
* Clyderesponded, "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!"?
* Clydesaid, "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".
* Clydethanked 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, he took out
his gun and shot her between the eyes Then the Patrolman came across
the road, gun in hand, looked at me, and said "How are you feeling?"
Now what the hell would you say?
