Have a Drink

Middle of the night, middle of nowhere, two cars both slightly cross over the white line in the center of the road.They collide and a fair amount of damage is done, although neither is hurt.It’s impossible to assess blame for the accident on either however. They both get out. One is a doctor, one is a lawyer.The lawyer calls the police on his car phone; they’ll be there in 20 minutes.It’s cold and damp, and both men are shaken up. The lawyer offers the doctor a drink of brandy from his hip flask, the doctor accepts, drinks and hands it back to the lawyer, who puts it away.“Aren’t you going to have a drink?“ the doctor asked.“AFTER the police get here,“ replies the lawyer.
