Heard any good jokes lately…..

A yacht sailing in the Caribbean got caught in a violent storm. It lasted all night and most of the next morning. As the sky cleared and the seas calmed, the people on the yacht realised they were grounded on a coral reef about a mile from shore in shark infested waters.

Most of those aboard the yacht were badly injured from their ordeal. The only able bodied that were on board were a doctor, a priest, and a lawyer.The doctor says "Someone is going to have to swim ashore and get some help. I would volunteer but most of the crew and passengers are in pretty bad shape and I am needed here to care for them."

The priest replies "I would volunteer to go also but I might be needed to comfort the injured or perform last rights."

The lawyer says "No problem." He strips off his shirt and dives into the shark infested water. There is a great turbulence in the water and then the doctor and priest realise that all of the sharks have formed a double line from the yacht to the beach allowing the lawyer to swim between them.

"My god!", says the priest. "It is a miracle!" The doctor looking at the lawyer swimming to shore says, "No father. It is not a miracle. It's professional courtesy!"
