The Old Lawyer

[new1]

An old man was critically ill. Feeling that death was near, he
called his lawyer. "I want to become a lawyer. How much is
that express degree you told me about?"

"It's $50,000," the lawyer said. "But why? You'll be dead soon,
why do you want to become a lawyer?"

"That's my business! Get me the course!"

Four days later, the old man got his law degree. His lawyer
was at his bedside, making sure his bill would be paid.

Suddenly the old man was racked with fits of coughing and
it was clear that this would be the end. Still curious, the
lawyer leaned over and said, "please, before it's too late,
tell me why you wanted to to get a law degree so badly before
you died?"

In a faint whisper, as he breathed his last, the old man said,
"One less lawyer . . ."

I thought this was gonna be the one about the lawyer at the pearly gates, Saint Peter asks him " and who are you?" he gives his name, but Peter still can't find him in the books. Peter asks" what did you do?" he replies "I was an attorney", Peter pulls out another book, looks him up and says "here you are, according to your billable hours, you are 1,213 years old"
