A Lawyer

A Lawyer...

A lawyer, who had a wife and 12 children, needed to move because his rental agreement was terminated by the owner, who wanted to reoccupy the home.
When he said he had 12 children, no one would rent a home to him because they felt that the children would destroy the place.
He couldn't say he had no children because he couldn't lie (as we all know, lawyers cannot, and do not lie).
So he sent his wife for a walk to the cemetery with 11 of their kids.
He took the remaining one with him to see rental homes with the real estate agent.
He loved one of the homes and the price was right.
The agent asked, "How many children do you have?"
He answered: "Twelve."
The agent asked, "Where are the others?"
The lawyer, with his best courtroom sad look, answered, "They're in the cemetery with their mother."

MORAL: It's not necessary to lie; one has only to choose the right words.
Don't forget –most politicians are lawyers.

This is wise strategy and it works. About 5 years ago my sister lived with us while transitioning to and assisted living facility. So needless to say she received a lot of nuisance calls at our home phone. After she moved to the facility we still received those calls. To stop this simply told the callers, when they asked for her, "she's no longer with us". They we all very apologetic and said they would take her name off their calling list. I took about a year and a half, but now we receive no calls for her.
