One day, there was this lawyer who had just bought a new car, and he was eager to show it off to his colleagues, when all of a sudden an eighteen wheeler came out of nowhere and took of the driver's side door with him standing right there.

"NOOO!" he screamed, because he knew that no matter how good a mechanic tried to fix it, it never would be the same.

Finally, a cop came by, and the lawyer ran up to him yelling, "MY JAGUAR DOOR WAS JUST RUINED BY SOME FOOLISH DRIVER!!!" he exclaimed.

"You're a lawyer aren't you?" asked the policeman.

"Yes, I am, but what does this have to do with my car?!?!" the lawyer asked.

"HA! You lawyers are always so materialistic. All you care about is your possessions. I bet you didn't even notice that your left arm is missing did you?" the cop said.

The lawyer looked down at his side and cried, "MY ROLEX!"

Are you kidding?

It's a brand of watches, a very expensive one for people who need to show off... I don't know if it's Sarkozy or Segala who said something like: "if you don't have a Rolex, you failed in your whole life!"

“Bounced cheque” We have already seen that word “cheque refusé”

More precisely "chèque sans provision" (retourné).
"To bounce a cheque" is used by a bank in British English to mean "refuser d'honorer un chèque"; it is used in the US by a person to mean "faire un chèque sans provision".
"Bounce" is also used about a ball and especially in basketball ("rebond").
"Bounced" is also used when an email is sent back to the sender by the mail server.
... other uses as well.
