Sharks

Over the weekend, a doctor, a priest and an attorney were out in a fishing boat. Their motor had conked out and one of the oars had drifted off. Just as the doctor was about to dive in to retrieve the oar, the boat was surrounded by frenzied sharks. "I can't go now," the doctor said. "If someone gets bitten, you'll need my services."

"I can't go either," said the priest. "If the doctor fails, I'll need to give last rites."

"Fine," said the attorney. "I'll get it." He dove in, the sharks moved, he retrieved the oar and climed back on board. The doctor and priest looked flabbergasted. The attorney just smiled and said, "Professional courtesy."
