As the fishing continued, the boat drifted into a school of man-eating sharks and the lawyer accidently fell overboard. However, instead of immediately devouring the new morsel, the sharks began pushing the lawyer towards the boat.

The lawyer replied, "Professional courtesy." ----- End of forwarded messages
