A rabbi, a Hindu, and a lawyer were traveling together. They found

themselves stranded late at night in the middle of nowhere. Fortunately,

a single farmhouse was nearby.

They went to the door and asked the farmer if he could put them up for

the night. "Sure," says the farmer, "but one of you will have to sleep in

the barn."

"I am humble," says the Hindu. "I will sleep in the barn."

Soon there is a knock on the door. The farmer opens it. There stands

the Hindu. "There is a cow in the barn," he says. "My religion forbids

me to sleep with cows."

The rabbi says, "I am humble. I will sleep in the barn."

A couple of minutes later, there is another knock on the door. It's the

rabbi. "There is a pig in the barn," says he. "My religion forbids me to

sleep with pigs."

Oh, Hell!" exclaims the lawyer. "I'll sleep in the barn."

A few minutes later, there is another knock at the door. The farmer

opens it.

It's the cow and the pig.
