Driving through Texas, a New Yorker collided with a truck carrying a horse. A few months later he tried to collect damages for his injuries. “How can you now claim to have all these injuries?” asked the insurance company's lawyer. “According the police report, at the time you said you were not hurt.”
“It's like this,” said the New Yorker. “I was lying in the road in a lot of pain, and I heard someone say the horse had a broken leg. The next thing I knew, the sheriff pulled out his gun and shot the horse. Then he turned to me and said, 'Are you okay?'”
