You might have heard. A big city lawyer went duck hunting. He shot and dropped a bird which fell into a farmers field on the other side of a fence. As the lawyer climbed over the fence,an elderly farmer drove up on his tractor and asked what he was doing.The lawyer replied, "I shot a duck and it fell in this field,and now I am going to retrieve it." Old farmer replied,"this is my property and you are are not coming over here". The indignant lawyer said "I am one of this countries best lawyers and if you don't let me get that bird, I will sue and take everything you own." The old farmer smiled and said,"Apparently you don't know how we settle disputes here, we settle them with the Three kick rule." The lawyer asked, "What is the three kick rule" "Well",said the farmer,"because the dispute occured on my land ,I get to go first,I kick you 3 times and then you kick me 3 times, back and forth until one gives up" The lawyer thought about the proposed contest and decided he could easily take the old codger. He agreed to abide by the local custom. The farmer slowly climbed down from the tractor and walked up to the lawyer. His first kick planted the toe firmly into the lawyers groin. and dropped him to his knees. The second kick to the midriff sent the lawyer last meal gushing from his mouth. The lawyer was on all fours when the farmers third kick to his rear end sent him face first into a fresh cow pie. The lawyer summoned every bit of his will and remaining strength and very slowly got to his feet,wiping his face with the arm of his jacket, he said 'Okay, old fart, now it's my turn,Old farmer smiled and said, "Nah, I give up, you can have the duck".
