 From Fred Schneider .... I didn't originate the following but it was  
too good not to forward.

Train Tickets

Three lawyers and three engineers were traveling by train to
the same meeting. At the station, the lawyers each buy a ticket
but the engineers buy just one. When asked why, the engineers
coyly said "You'll see."

They all board the train, the lawyers taking seats, but the
three engineers all crowding into the bathroom. After the train
has left, the conductor comes around and takes the lawyers
tickets and knocks on the bathroom door and says, "Ticket
Please." An arm stretches out from the bathroom and the
conductor takes the proffered ticket. The lawyers were very
impressed.

On the return trip, the lawyers proposed to emulate the
gearheads and bought only one ticket. To their amazement, the
engineers bought no ticket at all. When asked, the engineers
said, "You'll see."

All board the train and the lawyers and engineers cram into
separate bathrooms to await the conductor. After a few minutes,
one of the gearheads emerges from the bathroom, goes over to
the lawyers' bathroom, knocks on the door and says: "Ticket
please."
