"Old Injury"*
*Andy came to work one day, limping something awful.
One of his co-workers, Josh, noticed and asked Andy what happened.
Andy replied, "Oh, nothing. It's just an old hockey injury
that acts up once in a while."
Josh, "Gee, I never knew you played hockey."
Andy, "No I don't. I hurt it last year when I lost $1,000
on the Stanley Cup play-offs. I put my foot through the television."

"Bad Accident"*
*The brilliant lawyer F. E. Smith once defended a bus driver
against claims that his negligence had caused injury to a young man's arm:
"Will you please show us how high you can lift your arm now?"
Smith asked the plaintiff.
The young man obediently raised his arm to shoulder level,
his face contorted with apparent pain.
"Thank you," said Smith. "And now, please, will you show us
how high you could lift it before the accident?"
The man's arm shot above his head.
