A musical diretor was having a lot of trouble with one durmmer. He talked and talked and talked with the durmmer,but his performance simply didn't improve.
Finally, before the whole orchestra,he said:"When a musician just can't handle his instrument and does't improve when given help,they take away the instrument,and give him two sticks and make him a durmmer."
A stage whisper was heard from the percussion section:"And if he can'd handle even that,they take away one of his sticks and make him a conductor."

A big-city lawyer was representing the railroad
in a lawsuit filed by an old rancher.
The rancher's prize bull was missing from the
section through which the railroad passed.
The rancher only wanted to be paid the fair value
of the bull.
The case was scheduled to be tried before the justice of the peace in the back room of the general store.
The attorney for the railroad immediately cornered the rancher and tried to get him to settle out of court.
The lawyer did his best selling job, and finally the
rancher agreed to take half of what he was asking.
After the rancher had signed the release and took the check, the young lawyer couldn't resist gloating a little over his success, telling the rancher,
"You know, I hate to tell you this, old man, but I put
one over on you in there. I couldn't have won the case.
The engineer was asleep and the fireman was in the caboose when the train went through your ranch that morning.
I didn't have one witness to put on the stand.
I bluffed you!"
The old rancher replied,
"Well, I'll tell you, young feller, I was a little worried about winning that case myself,
because that durned bull came home this morning."
