never lie--you don't have to

A lawyer with a wife and 12 children needed to move because
his rental agreement was terminated by the owner, who wanted to
reoccupy the home.
He was having a lot of difficulty finding a new house.
When he said that he had 12 children no one would rent a
home to him, because they felt that the children would destroy the
place.
He couldn't say that he had no children, because he
couldn't lie;
(we all know lawyers cannot and do not lie.)
So he sent his wife for a walk to the cemetery with 11 of
their kids.
He took the remaining one with him to see rental homes with
the real estate agent.
He loved one of the homes and the price was right -- the
agent asked:
"How many children do you have?
He answered: "Twelve."
The agent asked, "Where are the others?"
The lawyer, with his best courtroom sad look answered,
“They're in the cemetery with their mother.
MORAL:
It's not necessary to lie; one only
has to choose the right words...
