Hostage Lawyers

November 14th, 2008

One morning a group of armed men stormed a large law firm, taking all the lawyers hostage.

Police and SWAT teams surrounded the building. A hostage negotiator contacted the leader of the hostage takers.

Negotiator: What do you want?

Leader: We want $10 million dollars, a helicopter to fly us to the airport, and a plane to fly us to another country. You have until noon to get it done!

Negotiator: You’re asking for a lot. I don’t think we can do it that fast.

Leader: Well, you better get it done! Starting at noon, we’re going to release one lawyer every 15 minutes until you meet our demands!
