From my brother:
A man called a law office and said: "I want to talk to my lawyer."
The receptionist replied, "I'm sorry, but he died last week."
The next day he phoned again and asked the same question. The receptionist replied, "I told you yesterday, he died last week."
The next day the man called for the third time, once again asking to speak to his lawyer.
Annoyed, the receptionist said, "Look, I keep telling you, your lawyer died last week. Why do you keep calling?"
"Because I just love hearing it," the man replied.
