Farmer Brown decided his injuries from the accident were serious enough to take the trucking company (responsible for the accident) to court. In court, the trucking company's fancy lawyer was questioning Farmer Brown.
"Didn't you say, at the scene of the accident, 'I'm fine'?" asked the lawyer.
Farmer Brown responded, "Well, I'll tell you what happened. I had just loaded my favorite mule, Bessie, into the--"
"I didn't ask for any details," the lawyer interrupted, "just answer the questions. Did you, or did you not, say, at the scene of the accident, 'I'm fine'?"
Farmer Brown responded, "Well, I'll tell you what happened. I had just loaded my favorite mule, Bessie, into the--"
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 incident, 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 Farmer Brown's answer and said to the lawyer, "I'd like to hear what he has to say about his favorite mule, Bessie. Please, continue Mr. Brown."
Brown thanked the Judge and proceeded, "Well, as I was saying, I had just loaded Bessie into the trailer and was driving her down the highway when this huge semi truck and trailer ran the stop sign and smacked my truck right in the side."
He continued, "I was thrown into one ditch and Bessie was thrown into the other. I was hurting real bad and didn't want to move. However, I could hear ol' Bessie moaning and groaning. I knew she was in terrible shape just by her groans."
"Shortly after the accident, a highway patrolman came on the scene. He could hear Bessie moaning and groaning, so he went over to her. After he looked at her, he took out his gun and shot her right between the eyes."
"Then the patrolman came across the road with his gun in hand and looked at me." Finally, Farmer Brown came to the end of his story.
"The patrolman looked at me and said, 'Your mule was in such bad shape, I had to shoot her.'
'How are YOU feeling?'"
