Ole's Accident

Ole had a car accident. In court, the trucking company's lawyer was
questioning Ole. 'Didn't you say, sir, at the scene of the accident,
'I'm fine,'?' asked the lawyer.

Ole responded, 'Vell, I'll tell you vat 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!'?

Ole said, 'Vell, 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 Ole's answer and
said to the lawyer, 'I'd like to hear what he has to say about his
favorite mule, Bessie'.

Ole thanked the Judge and proceeded. 'Vell as I vas saying, I had
just loaded Bessie, my favorite mule, into DA trailer and vas driving
her down DA highvay ven dis huge semi-truck and trailer ran DA stop
sign and smacked my truck right in DA side. I vas thrown into one
ditch and Bessie vas thrown into DA other. I vas hurting, real bad,
and didn't vant to move. However, I could hear Bessie moaning and
groaning. I knew she was in terrible shape just by her groans'.

'Shortly after DA accident DA Highway Patrolman came to DA 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 right 'tween DA eyes. Then the Patrolman came across
DA road, gun still in hand, looked at me and said, 'How are you
feeling?''

'Now vat the hell vould YOU say?'
