Topic: Seamus

[Den]

A Newfoundland farmer  named Seamus had a car accident.

In court, the truckingcompany's hot-shot solicitor was questioning Seamus.

'Didn't you say to theRCMP 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
favorite 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 Honor,
I am trying to establish the fact that, at the scene of the accident, this
man told the police on the scene that he was 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 inSeamus's answer and said
to the solicitor: 'I'd like to hear what he has to say about his favourite
cow, Bessie'.

Seamus thanked theJudge 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 eighteen-wheeler 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 pain just by her groans. Shortly after the accident, a
policeman 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 policeman came across the road, gun still in hand, looked at
me, and said, 'How are you feeling?'

'Now what would you say?'
