SOUTHERN GRANDMA
Lawyers should never ask a Southern grandma a question if
they aren't prepared for the answer. In a trial, a Southern all-
town prosecuting attorney called his first witness, a
grandmotherly, 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 replied, "Why, yes, I do. I've known
Mr. Bradley since he was a youngster, 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 to the electric chair."
Love it. LOVE IT!!!
