greywolf2 - When Grandma goes to court
Lawyers should never ask a Mississipi grandma a question if they aren't prepared for the answer.
In a trial, a Southern small-town prosecuting attorney called hisfirst witness, a grandmotherly, elderly woman to the stand. Heapproached 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 aboy, and frankly, you've been a big disappointment to me. You lie, youcheat on your wife, and you manipulate people and talk about thembehind their backs. You think your a big shot when you haven't thebrains to realize you'll never amount to anything more than a two-bitpaper pusher. Yes, I know you."
The lawyer was stunned. Not knowing what else to do, he pointedacross the room and asked, "Mrs. Jones, do you know the defenseattorney ?"
She again replied, "Why yes, I do. I've known Mr. Bradley since hewas a youngster, too. He's lazy, bigoted, and he has a drinkingproblem. He cant build a normal relation ship with anyone, and his lawpractice is one of the worst in the entire state. Not to mention hecheated on his wife three different women. One of them was your wife.Yes, I know him".
The defense attorney nearly 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."
hahahahahahahahahahhaha
nice one grey.... wonder if she knows me?
