In a trial, a Southern small town Prosecuting Attorney called his first
witness -- a grand-motherly, elderly woman to the stand. 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, and you manipulate people and talk
about them behind their backs. You think you're a 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. Jones, do you know the Defense Attorney?"
She again replies, "Why, yes, I do. I've known Mr. Bradley since he was a
youngste r, too. He's lazy, bigoted, and he has a drinking problem. He
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. One of them was your wife. Yes, I know him."
The Defense Attorney almost died.
The Judge asked both Counselors to approach the bench and, in a very quiet
voice, said, "If either of you idiots asks her if she knows me, I'll send
you BOTH to the electric chair!"
