Never trust your lawyer

A Mafia Godfather finds out that his bookkeeper has screwed him out of ten
million bucks; his bookkeeper is deaf. It was considered an occupational
benefit, and the reason he got the job in the first place, since it was
assumed that a deaf bookkeeper would not be able to hear anything that he'd
ever have to testify about in court.

When the Godfather goes to shakedown the bookkeeper about his missing $10
million bucks, he brings along his attorney, who knows sign language.

The Godfather asks the bookkeeper: "Where is the 10 million bucks you
embezzled from me?"

The attorney, using sign language, asks the bookkeeper where the 10 million
bucks is hidden.

The bookkeeper signs back: "I don't know what you are talking about." The
attorney tells the Godfather: "He says he doesn't know what you're talking
about."

That's when the Godfather pulls out a 9 mm pistol, puts it to the
bookkeeper?s temple, cocks it, and says: "Ask him again!" The attorney signs
to the underling: "He'll kill you for sure if you don't tell him!"

The bookkeeper signs back: "OK! You win! The money is in a brown briefcase,
buried behind the shed in my cousin Enzo's backyard in Queens!"

The Godfather asks the attorney: "Well, what'd he say?"
The attorney replies: "He says you don't have the balls to pull the
trigger."
