What's black and tan, and looks good on a Lawyer?
A Rottweiller.
******************
A Doctor, a Lawyer, and a Priest are all stranded on a desert island. Just across the channel, there's a lush, veritable paradise, with food, shelter, anything that a man could want. The only problem, indeed, the only thing keeping the three on the desert island are all the sharks that swim between the two islands.
The three talk it over, and decide that one of them must swim across the channel, and build a raft to get the other two.
Then the Doctor says, "I can't go, because whoever does go will need my skills to heal from the sharks."
The Priest says, "I can't go either, because whoever does go will need my skills to heal from the sharks, too."
The Lawyer gives them both a dirty look, and mutters "Why do I have to do all the dirty work around here?"
So, the Lawyer walks into the surf. As he gets about waist-deep in the water, a shark swims up. The shark circles around several times, then dives down, and rapidly comes at the Lawyer from behind. Just as the other two are yelling "shark!", the shark comes up between the Lawyer's legs, and gives him a ride to the other island.
The Doctor and Priest can only stand dumbfounded as they watch the Lawyer build a raft and paddle it across to them. When the Lawyer gets back, all the two can do is stare. After all three are safely across to the other island, the Priest finally finds his voice.
He asks, "I have to know, why didn't that shark attack and kill you?"
The Lawyer replies "Professional courtesy."
