Lawyers should never ask a Mississippigrandma a question if they aren't prepared for the answer. 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 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 bastards asks her if she knows me, I'll send you to the electric chair."
Cheers, Vince

Weinbender...I have had the privilege of drinkin' the night away with Australian Sailors in various ports in the Pacific...As they pick on you they pick on themselves. They are a riot when a bit tippsy (The most common phrase I heard was "Ah com'on mate. play the game.). In a tight when the SHTF. They are too busy trying to be the first one to hit someone. I had a hell of a time getting a fist in edgewise. They wouldn't let me in front...I would pass the time, drink or fight with them on my side anytime...Real Good People...The best.
Now that's how you kiss up to Vince and Gelandangan. Yup...That ought to do it...

yes sir, I noticed that, once again your literary prowess is nothing less than astonishing. Actually, I was pretty sure you'd laugh at it my friend.

Hm, good question Bushy.
Hey Trackster...a mangle is a wringer found on an old syle washing machine. You know...two rollers that you put your wet clothes through to squeeeeeeze the water out before hanging them on the clothes line.
He does now mate. :lol:
