A Mafia Godfather learns that his bookkeeper
has embezzled ten million dollars.
The bookkeeper is deaf. That was the reason
he got the job in the first place. It was
assumed that a deaf bookkeeper would not be
able to hear anything that he'd ever have to
testify about in court.
So when the Godfather interrogates the
bookkeeper about the missing $10
million, he brings along an attorney who
knows sign language.
The Godfather asks the bookkeeper, "Where's
the 10 million you embezzled from me?"
The attorney, using sign language, asks
the bookkeeper where the 10 million is hidden.
The bookkeeper signs back: "I don't know
what you are talking about."
The attorney tells the Godfather: "He says
he doesn't know what you're talking about."
The Godfather pulls out a 9 mm pistol, puts
it to the bookkeeper's temple, cocks it,
and says, "Ask him again!"
The attorney signs to the bookkeeper:
"He'll kill you for sure if you don't
tell him!"
The bookkeeper signs back, "OK! You win!
The money is in a brown briefcase, buried
behind the shed in my cousin Enzo's backyard
in Queens !"
The Godfather asks the attorney, "Well,
what'd he say?"
The attorney replies, "He says you don't have the balls to pull the trigger."
Don't ya just love lawyers!!!
