Remembering that real estate I bought?

A doctor holidaying in Europe met an old lawyer friend and asked him what he was doing there.

The lawyer replied, “Remember that lousy real estate I bought? Well, it caught fire, so here I am with the fire insurance proceeds. What are you doing here?”

The doctor replied, “Remember that lousy real estate I had? Well, the river overflowed, and here I am with the flood insurance proceeds”. The lawyer looked puzzled.

“Gee,” he asked, “how did you start the flood?”
