Just for you Judgejb and Gulfcoast

A small town prosecuting attorney called
his first witness to the stand in a trial - > a grandmotherly, elderly woman.

He approached her and asked, "Mrs. Jones, > do you know me?"

She responded, "Why, yes, I do know you
Mr. Williams. I've known you since you were > a young boy. And frankly, you've been a big > disappointment to me. You lie, you cheat on > your wife, you manipulate people and talk
about them behind their backs. You think > you're a rising big shot when you haven't
the brains to realize you never will amount
to anything more than a two-bit paper pusher. > Yes, I know you."

The lawyer was stunned.

Not knowing what else to do he pointed
across the room and asked, "Mrs. Williams, > do you know the defense attorney?"
She again replied, "Why, yes I do. I've known > Mr. Bradley since he was a youngster, too.
I used to baby-sit him for his parents.
And he, too, has been a real disappointment > to me. He's lazy, bigoted, he has a drinking > problem. The man can't build a normal
relationship with anyone and his law practice > is one of the worst in the entire state. Not > to mention he cheated on his wife with
three different women. Yes, I know him." >
The defense attorney was also surprised > and shocked.

At this point, the judge brought the > courtroom to silence and called both
counselors to the bench. In a very quiet > voice, he said with menace,

"If either of you bastards asks her if
she knows me, you'll be jailed for contempt!" >
