[nilesfunnies] Fw: using sign language


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

When the Godfather goes to shakedown the bookkeeper about his missing 10
million Euros, he brings along his solicitor, who knows sign language. The
Godfather asks the bookkeeper: "Where is the 10 million Euros you
embezzled from me?"

The solicitor, using sign language, asks the bookkeeper where the 10
million Euros are hidden. The bookkeeper signs back: "I don't know what
you are talking about. "The solicitor 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 solicitor 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!"
The Godfather asks the solicitor: "Well, what'd he say?"

The solicitor replies: "He says you don't have the balls to pull the
trigger."
