Re: Anybody have any jokes they can share?

my first chemo go round my sister was in charge of making me laugh. this one had me laughing out loud at my desk









These are from a book calledDisorder in the American Courts, and are things people actually said in court, word for word, taken down and now published by court reporters that had the torment of staying calm while these exchanges were actually taking place.









ATTORNEY: What was the first thing your husband said to you that morning?




WITNESS: He said , 'Where am I, Cathy?'




ATTORNEY: And why did that upset you?




WITNESS: My name is Susan!




____________________________________________









ATTORNEY: What gear were you in at the moment of the impact?




WITNESS: Gucci sweats and Reeboks.




____________________________________________









ATTORNEY: Are you sexually active?




WITNESS: No , I just lie there.




____________________________________________









ATTORNEY: Thismyasthenia gravis , does it affect your memory at all?




WITNESS: Yes.




ATTORNEY: And in what ways does it affect your memory?




WITNESS: I forget..




ATTORNEY: You forget? Can you give us an example of something you forgot?




___________________________________________









ATTORNEY: Do you know if your daughter has ever been involved in voodoo?




WITNESS: We both do.




ATTORNEY: Voodoo?




WITNESS: We do..




ATTORNEY: You do?




WITNESS: Yes , voodoo.




____________________________________________









ATTORNEY: Now doctor , isn't it true that when a person dies in his sleep , he doesn't know about it until the next morning?




WITNESS: Did you actually pass the bar exam?




____________________________________









ATTORNEY: The youngest son, the 20-year-old, how old is he?




WITNESS: He's 20, much like your IQ.




___________________________________________









ATTORNEY: Were you present when your picture was taken?




WITNESS: Are you kidding me?




_________________________________________









ATTORNEY: So the date of conception (of the baby) wasAugust 8th?




WITNESS: Yes.




ATTORNEY: And what were you doing at that time?




WITNESS: Getting laid.




____________________________________________









ATTORNEY: She had three children , right?




WITNESS: Yes.




ATTORNEY: How many were boys?




WITNESS: None.




ATTORNEY: Were there any girls?




WITNESS: Your Honor, I think I need a different attorney. Can I get a new attorney?




____________________________________________









ATTORNEY: How was your first marriage terminated?




WITNESS: By death..




ATTORNEY: And by whose death was it terminated?




WITNESS: Take a guess.




____________________________________________









ATTORNEY: Can you describe the individual?




WITNESS: He was about medium height and had a beard




ATTORNEY: Was this a male or a female?




WITNESS: Unless the Circus was in town I'm going with male.




_____________________________________









ATTORNEY: Is your appearance here this morning pursuant to a deposition notice which I sent to your attorney?




WITNESS: No, this is how I dress when I go to work.




______________________________________









ATTORNEY: Doctor , how many of your autopsies have you performed on dead people?




WITNESS: All of them.. The live ones put up too much of a fight.




_________________________________________









ATTORNEY: ALL your responses MUST be oral , OK? What school did you go to?




WITNESS: Oral...




_________________________________________









ATTORNEY: Do you recall the time that you examined the body?




WITNESS: The autopsy started around8:30 PM




ATTORNEY: And Mr. Denton was dead at the time?




WITNESS: If not, he was by the time I finished.




____________________________________________









ATTORNEY: Are you qualified to give a urine sample?




WITNESS: Are you qualified to ask that question?




______________________________________









And last:









ATTORNEY: Doctor, before you performed the autopsy, did you check for a pulse?




WITNESS: No.




ATTORNEY: Did you check for blood pressure?




WITNESS: No.




ATTORNEY: Did you check for breathing?




WITNESS: No..




ATTORNEY: So, then it is possible that the patient was alive when you began the autopsy?




WITNESS: No.




ATTORNEY: How can you be so sure, Doctor?




WITNESS: Because his brain was sitting on my desk in a jar.




ATTORNEY: I see, but could the patient have still been alive, nevertheless?




WITNESS: Yes, it is possible that he could have been alive and practicing law.

I found this baby's reaction to his mom blowing her nose funny.

When I hear of somebody swallowing their gum, I'm going to think of the photo shared above. HA!
